Constructor.

Method Detail

getPlotterDescription

public String getPlotterDescription()
Description copied from interface: Plotter
Returns an XML description of this plotter.

Note: really this should appear at the LayerType level.

Returns:
one or more <p> elements

getStyleKeys

public ConfigKey[] getStyleKeys()
Description copied from interface: Plotter
Returns the configuration keys used to configure style for this plotter. The keys in the return value are used in the map supplied to the Plotter.createStyle(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.config.ConfigMap) method.

Returns:
keys used when creating a style for this plotter.

createStyle

public ContourStyle createStyle(ConfigMap config)
Description copied from interface: Plotter
Creates a style that can be used when creating a plot layer. The keys that are significant in the supplied config map are those returned by Plotter.getStyleKeys(). The return value can be used as input to Plotter.createLayer(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.DataGeom, uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.data.DataSpec, S).

Parameters:
config - map of style configuration items
Returns:
plotter-specific plot style

createLayer

public PlotLayer createLayer(DataGeom geom,
                             DataSpec dataSpec,
                             ContourStyle style)
Description copied from interface: Plotter
Creates a PlotLayer based on the given geometry, data and style.

The style parameter is the result of a call to Plotter.createStyle(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.config.ConfigMap).

The dataSpec parameter must contain the coordinates defined by this plotter's CoordGroup.

The pointDataGeom parameter is only used if getCoordGroup(). getPositionCount returns a non-zero value, otherwise the plot does not have point positions.

It is legal to supply null for any of the parameters; if insufficient data is supplied to generate a plot, then the method should return null.

Creating a layer should be cheap; layers may be created and not used.

Parameters:
geom - indicates base position coordinates and their mapping to points in the data space; if non-null, the data geom's DataGeom.hasPosition() method will return true
dataSpec - specifies the data required for the plot
style - data style as obtained from createStyle
Returns:
new plot layer, or null if no drawing will take place
