    • AbstractZoneController

      protected AbstractZoneController(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.SurfaceFactory<P,A> surfFact)
      Constructor.
      Parameters:
      surfFact - surface factory

  • Method Details

    • setRanges

      public void setRanges(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot.Range[] ranges)
      Sets fixed data position coordinate ranges. If these are not set then they may need to be calculated by examining the data to work out the plot aspect. Setting them to null ensures a re-range if required next time.
      Specified by:
      setRanges in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Parameters:
      ranges - fixed data position coordinate ranges, or null to clear

    • getRanges

      public uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot.Range[] getRanges()
      Returns the current fixed data coordinate ranges. If not known, null is returned.
      Specified by:
      getRanges in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Returns:
      fixed data position coordinate ranges, or null if not known

    • setAspect

      public void setAspect(A aspect)
      Sets the plot aspect which defines the view on the data. If not set, it may have to be worked out from config and range inputs.
      Specified by:
      setAspect in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Parameters:
      aspect - fixed aspect, or null to clear

    • getAspect

      public A getAspect()
      Returns the plot aspect to use for setting up the plot surface. If not known, null is returned.
      Specified by:
      getAspect in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Returns:
      fixed aspect, or null if none set

    • updateState

      public void updateState(P profile, uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.PlotLayer[] layers, boolean axisLock)
      Configures this controller for a given set of plot layers. This may trigger a resetting of the aspect and ranges, generally if the new plot is sufficiently different from most recent one. Whether that's the case is determined by calling clearRange.

      This isn't perfect, since it only allows to clear the range or not. Sometimes you might want finer control, e.g. to clear the range in one dimension and retain it in others. It may be possible to fit that into the updateState API, but it would require more work.

      Specified by:
      updateState in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Parameters:
      profile - surface profile
      layers - layers which will be plotted
      axisLock - whether re-ranging is inhibited; normally, if true axes will not be reset by this method, but the implementation can override that if it needs to

    • submitReports

      public void submitReports(Map<LayerId, uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.ReportMap> reports)
      Accepts report information generated by plotting layers. Null map values are permitted, with the same meaning as an empty map.

      The default implementation does nothing, but subclasses may override it to enquire about plot results.

      Specified by:
      submitReports in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Parameters:
      reports - per-layer plot reports for layers generated by the most recent plot

    • setLatestSurface

      public void setLatestSurface(uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.Surface surface)
      Accepts information about the latest plotting surface to be plotted by the panel associated with this controller. This method is intended for passing information back to this controller, which does not otherwise have access to the asynchronously constructed Surface object it has configured, it is not an instruction to adjust the current state.

      The default implementation does nothing, but subclasses may override it to acquire information about plot state.

      Specified by:
      setLatestSurface in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Parameters:
      surface - latest plotting surface.

    • getNavigator

      public uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.Navigator<A> getNavigator()
      Returns the navigator specified by this control.
      Specified by:
      getNavigator in interface ZoneController<P,A>
      Returns:
      current navigator

    • clearRange

      protected boolean clearRange(P oldProfile, P newProfile, uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.PlotLayer[] oldLayers, uk.ac.starlink.ttools.plot2.PlotLayer[] newLayers, boolean lock)
      Indicates whether a new configuration should result in clearing the current ranges and plot aspect.
      Parameters:
      oldProfile - profile for last plot
      newProfile - profile for next plot
      oldLayers - layer set for last plot
      newLayers - layer set for next plot
      lock - whether re-ranging is inhibited; normally, if lock is true this method should return false, but the implementation can overrule this and return true even when locked if it needs to
      Returns:
      true iff the range should be re-established for the next plot

    • forceClearRange

      protected abstract boolean forceClearRange(P oldProfile, P newProfile)
      Determines whether the change between two profiles forces an unconditional re-range of the plotting surface. This method should return true if the plotting surface will change between the old and new supplied profiles sufficiently to invalidate previously calculated auto range data.
      Parameters:
      oldProfile - profile before change
      newProfile - profile after change
      Returns:
      true if a new auto-ranging is required
