Mouse cursor position on canvas

[gavinmagnus]

Hello,

I'm posting the proper procedure to get the cursor position inside the canvas.

canvas()->installEventFilter( this );
// sometimes qobject_cast<QwtPlotCanvas*>(canvas()) might me needed
 
bool PlotView::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event)
{
    if (event->type() == QEvent::MouseButtonPress)
    {
        QMouseEvent *mouseEvent = static_cast<QMouseEvent *>(event);
        X = mouseEvent->pos().x;
        invTransform( QwtPlot::xBottom, X);

canvas()->installEventFilter( this );
// sometimes qobject_cast<QwtPlotCanvas*>(canvas()) might me needed

bool PlotView::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event)
{
    if (event->type() == QEvent::MouseButtonPress)
    {
        QMouseEvent *mouseEvent = static_cast<QMouseEvent *>(event);
        X = mouseEvent->pos().x;
        invTransform( QwtPlot::xBottom, X);
