Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DiagramScene() [1/2]

DiagramScene::DiagramScene ( QObject * parent = nullptr )

explicit

Creates a new scene. Since no data points are given some default values are used for constructing all the necessary objects.

DiagramScene() [2/2]

DiagramScene::DiagramScene ( DiagramList * list, QObject * parent = nullptr )

explicit

Creates a new scene.

Parameters

list	includes all necessary information of the graph to display.
parent	The parent QObject.
