public class PlotFrame
extends javax.swing.JFrame

PlotFrame is a versatile two-dimensional data plotter that runs as part of an application, but in its own window. It can read files compatible with the old Ptolemy plot file format (currently only ASCII). It is extended with the capability to read PlotML files in PlotMLFrame. An application can also interact directly with the contained Plot object, which is visible as a public member, by invoking its methods.

An application that uses this class should set up the handling of window-closing events. Presumably, the application will exit when all windows have been closed. This is done with code something like:

     plotFrameInstance.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
         public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
             // Handle the event
         }
     });
 

PlotFrame contains an instance of PlotBox. PlotBox is the base class for classes with drawing capability, e.g. Plot, LogicAnalyzer. If not specified in the constructor, the default is to contain a Plot object. This field is set once in the constructor and immutable afterwards.

Constructor Detail

PlotFrame

public PlotFrame()
Construct a plot frame with a default title and by default contains an instance of Plot. After constructing this, it is necessary to call setVisible(true) to make the plot appear.


PlotFrame

public PlotFrame(java.lang.String title)
Construct a plot frame with the specified title and by default contains an instance of Plot. After constructing this, it is necessary to call setVisible(true) to make the plot appear.

Parameters:
title - The title to put on the window.

PlotFrame

public PlotFrame(java.lang.String title,
                 PlotBox plotArg)
Construct a plot frame with the specified title and the specified instance of PlotBox. After constructing this, it is necessary to call setVisible(true) to make the plot appear.

Parameters:
title - The title to put on the window.
plotArg - the plot object to put in the frame, or null to create an instance of Plot.
