JMSL provides the functionality to implement a variety of zoom policies instead of implementing a single specific zoom policy. The following example shows how to build a zoom policy that draws a rubber-band box in a scatter plot and zooms both the x-axis and y-axis to correspond to the region selected. Zoom out is also implemented.
This code can be used as the basis of an implementation of other zoom policies. For example, with a function plot one might want to only change the x-axis in response to a zoom and leave the y-axis alone. In other situations it may be desirable to zoom in or out a fixed amount around the location of a mouse click.
Example
In the constructor:
• A scatter plot is created,
• Zoom items are added to the main menu,
• A MouseListener is added to the panel. A JFrameChart contains a number of components, including a JPanel in which the chart is drawn. It is important that the MouseListener be added to the component in which the chart is drawn, so that the MouseEvent coordinates are the same as the device coordinates of the chart.
A mouse press event starts the zoom. In response to the event a MouseMotionListener is added to the panel to listen for mouse drag events. The location of this initial event is also recorded.
A mouse drag event resizes the area of the zoom. In response, the old rubber-band box is erased and a new box is drawn. The new box has the initial mouse press location as one corner and this drag event location as the opposite corner. The location of this event is stored in (xLast,yLast).
api/com/imsl/chart/Axis.html#mapDeviceToUser(int, int, double[])
A mouse release event completes the zoom. In response,
• The MouseMotionListener is removed from the panel,
• The existing Window attributes for the x-axis and y-axis are saved on a stack. They may be used later to zoom out.
• The new Window is computed. The Window is the range, in user coordinates, along an axis. The method Axis.mapDeviceToUser is used to map the device (pixel) coordinates to the user coordinate space. The new windows are constrained to be inside of the existing window.
• Autoscaling is turned off, so that the new Window values will be used without further modification.
• The chart is redrawn with the new windows.
The menu items, added by the constructor to the main menu, can be used to zoom out. The added menu items added "this" as an ActionListener, so the actionPerformed method is called when these menu items are selected. The actionPerformed method implements "Out" by popping previous Window attribute values off a stack. It implements "Restore" by re-enabling autoscaling.
