    Default QwtPlot -> axis -> Draw labels for all kind of ticks ?

    Hy there!

    I believe my question is understandable from the title of the post , but I got to be sure:

    I have a QwtPlot with a time axis as the x axis (as in cpluplot example of Qwt) and my wish is to draw labels not only for the major ticks of the axis, instead I want labels (maybe just milliseconds, not the entire time) for all ticks.

    Any help is welcomed. Thanks a lot!

    Heh, I finally found the way to do this.

    QwtScaleDraw also implements this virtual method:

    void draw(QPainter *painter, const QPalette& palette) const;

    So I override it, executed the code that was executing before and added label support also for medium and minor ticks:

    void X::draw(QPainter *painter, const QPalette& palette) const
    {
    QwtScaleDraw::draw(painter, palette);

    if ( hasComponent(QwtAbstractScaleDraw::Labels) )
    {
    painter->save();
    painter->setPen(palette.color(QPalette::Text)); // ignore pen style

    painter->setFont(QFont("Verdana", 7));

    const QList<double> &mediumTicks = scaleDiv().ticks(QwtScaleDiv::MediumTick);

    for (int i = 0; i < (int)mediumTicks.count(); i++)
    {
    const double v = mediumTicks[i];
    if ( scaleDiv().contains(v) )
    drawLabel(painter, mediumTicks[i]);
    }

    painter->setFont(QFont("Verdana", 6));

    const QList<double> &minorTicks = scaleDiv().ticks(QwtScaleDiv::MinorTick);

    for (int i = 0; i < (int)minorTicks.count(); i++)
    {
    const double v = minorTicks[i];
    if ( scaleDiv().contains(v) )
    drawLabel(painter, minorTicks[i]);
    }

    painter->restore();
    }
    }
