Method Detail

setDeltaR

void setDeltaR(double dr)

Sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.

Parameters:

dr -

autospaceRings

void autospaceRings(boolean autoscale)

Automatically sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.

Parameters:

dr -

getDeltaR

double getDeltaR()

Gets the spacing of the radial gridlines.

setDeltaTheta

void setDeltaTheta(double dtheta)

Sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.

Parameters:

dtheta - in degree

getDeltaTheta

double getDeltaTheta()

Gets the spacing of the radial gridlines.

drawRings

double drawRings(double rmax,
                 DrawingPanel panel,
                 java.awt.Graphics g)

Draws the rings for the polar plot. The ring spacing used will depend on the resolution and the autoscale flag.

Parameters:

panel -

g -

Returns:

double the ring spacing that was used

drawSpokes

void drawSpokes(double rmax,
                DrawingPanel panel,
                java.awt.Graphics g)

Draws the spokes for the polar plot.

Parameters:

panel -

g -

setInteriorBackground

void setInteriorBackground(java.awt.Color color)

Sets the interior background color.
