Detailed Description
       A scale map.

       QwtScaleMap offers transformations from a scale into a paint interval and vice versa.

Constructor &; Destructor Documentation
   QwtScaleMap::QwtScaleMap ()
       Constructor. The scale and paint device intervals are both set to [0,1].

   QwtScaleMap::QwtScaleMap (const QwtScaleMap &other)
       Copy constructor.

   QwtScaleMap::~QwtScaleMap () Destructor
Member Function Documentation
   double QwtScaleMap::invTransform (doublep) const [inline] Transform an paint device value into a value in the interval of the scale.
       Parameters:
	   p Value relative to the coordinates of the paint device

       See also:
	   transform()

   QwtScaleMap & QwtScaleMap::operator= (const QwtScaleMap &other)
       Assignment operator.

   double QwtScaleMap::p1 () const [inline] Returns:
	   First border of the paint interval

   double QwtScaleMap::p2 () const [inline] Returns:
	   Second border of the paint interval

   double QwtScaleMap::pDist () const [inline] Returns:
	   qwtAbs(p2() - p1())

   double QwtScaleMap::s1 () const [inline] Returns:
	   First border of the scale interval

   double QwtScaleMap::s2 () const [inline] Returns:
	   Second border of the scale interval

   double QwtScaleMap::sDist () const [inline] Returns:
	   qwtAbs(s2() - s1())

   void QwtScaleMap::setPaintInterval (intp1, intp2)
       Specify the borders of the paint device interval. Parameters:
	   p1 first border
	   p2 second border

   void QwtScaleMap::setPaintXInterval (doublep1, doublep2)
       Specify the borders of the paint device interval. Parameters:
	   p1 first border
	   p2 second border

   void QwtScaleMap::setScaleInterval (doubles1, doubles2)
       Specify the borders of the scale interval. Parameters:
	   s1 first border
	   s2 second border

       Warning:
	   logarithmic scales might be aligned to [LogMin, LogMax]

   void QwtScaleMap::setTransformation (QwtScaleTransformation *transformation) Initialize the map with a transformation
   int QwtScaleMap::transform (doubles) const [inline] Transform a point related to the scale interval into an point related to the interval of
       the paint device and round it to an integer. (In Qt <= 3.x paint devices are integer based. )
       Parameters:
	   s Value relative to the coordinates of the scale

       See also:
	   xTransform()

   const QwtScaleTransformation * QwtScaleMap::transformation () const
       Get the transformation.

   double QwtScaleMap::xTransform (doubles) const [inline] Transform a point related to the scale interval into an point related to the interval
       of the paint device
       Parameters:
	   s Value relative to the coordinates of the scale
