QwtLegendItem should show only checked entrys of QwtLegend (or visible PlotItems)

Hello,

With the QwtLegend i manage the visibility of curves, markers etc. that are attached to to plot.
I can't use the attribute QwtPlotItem::Legend, because if i set it to false it disapears from QwtLegend.

The QwtPlotLegendItem inside of plot should show ONLY the visible items of the plot. How can i do this?

Yes of course: setting QwtPlotItem::Legend to false has the meaning of not being relevant for the legend.

Overload QwtPlotLegendItem::updateLegend(), something like this:

Code:

---

virtual void YourLegendItem::updateLegend( const QwtPlotItem *plotItem,
        const QList<QwtLegendData> &data )
{
    if ( !plotItem->isVisible() )
        QwtPlotLegendItem::updateLegend( plotItem, QList<QwtLegendData>() );
    else
        QwtPlotLegendItem::updateLegend( plotItem, data );
}
