Detailed Description
       A Widget which contains a scale.

       This Widget can be used to decorate composite widgets with a scale.

Constructor &; Destructor Documentation
   QwtScaleWidget::QwtScaleWidget (QWidget *parent = NULL) [explicit]
       Create a scale with the position QwtScaleWidget::Left. Parameters:
	   parent Parent widget

   QwtScaleWidget::QwtScaleWidget (QwtScaleDraw::Alignmentalign, QWidget *parent = NULL) [explicit]
       Constructor. Parameters:
	   align Alignment.
	   parent Parent widget

   QwtScaleWidget::~QwtScaleWidget () [virtual]
       Destructor.

Member Function Documentation
   QwtScaleDraw::Alignment QwtScaleWidget::alignment () const Returns:
	   position

       See also:
	   setPosition()

   int QwtScaleWidget::dimForLength (intlength, const QFont &scaleFont) const
       Find the minimum dimension for a given length. dim is the height, length the width seen in direction of the title. Parameters:
	   length width for horizontal, height for vertical scales
	   scaleFont Font of the scale

       Returns:
	   height for horizontal, width for vertical scales

   void QwtScaleWidget::draw (QPainter *p) const [protected]
       draw the scale

   void QwtScaleWidget::drawTitle (QPainter *painter, QwtScaleDraw::Alignmentalign, const QRect &rect) const Rotate and paint a title according to
       its position into a given rectangle.
       Parameters:
	   painter Painter
	   align Alignment
	   rect Bounding rectangle

   int QwtScaleWidget::endBorderDist () const Returns:
	   end border distance

       See also:
	   setBorderDist()

   void QwtScaleWidget::getBorderDistHint (int &start, int &end) const
       Calculate a hint for the border distances. This member function calculates the distance of the scale's endpoints from the widget borders
       which is required for the mark labels to fit into the widget. The maximum of this distance an the minimum border distance is returned.

       Warning:
	   o The minimum border distance depends on the font.
       See also:
	   setMinBorderDist(), getMinBorderDist(), setBorderDist()
   void QwtScaleWidget::getMinBorderDist (int &start, int &end) const Get the minimum value for the distances of the scale's endpoints from the
       widget borders.
       See also:
	   setMinBorderDist(), getBorderDistHint()
   void QwtScaleWidget::layoutScale (boolupdate = true) [protected]
       Recalculate the scale's geometry and layout based on.
   int QwtScaleWidget::margin () const Returns:
	   margin
       See also:
	   setMargin()
   QSize QwtScaleWidget::minimumSizeHint () const [virtual] Returns:
	   a minimum size hint
   void QwtScaleWidget::paintEvent (QPaintEvent *e) [protected, virtual]
       paintEvent
   int QwtScaleWidget::penWidth () const Returns:
	   Scale pen width
       See also:
	   setPenWidth()
   void QwtScaleWidget::resizeEvent (QResizeEvent *e) [protected, virtual]
       resizeEvent
   void QwtScaleWidget::scaleChange () [protected]
       Notify a change of the scale. This virtual function can be overloaded by derived classes. The default implementation updates the geometry
       and repaints the widget.
   void QwtScaleWidget::scaleDivChanged () [signal]
       Signal emitted, whenever the scale divison changes.
   const QwtScaleDraw * QwtScaleWidget::scaleDraw () const scaleDraw of this scale
       See also:
	   setScaleDraw(), QwtScaleDraw::setScaleDraw()
   QwtScaleDraw * QwtScaleWidget::scaleDraw () scaleDraw of this scale
       See also:
	   QwtScaleDraw::setScaleDraw()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setAlignment (QwtScaleDraw::Alignmentalignment) Change the alignment
       Parameters:
	   alignment New alignment
       See also:
	   alignment()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setBorderDist (intdist1, intdist2) Specify distances of the scale's endpoints from the widget's borders. The actual
       borders will never be less than minimum border distance.
       Parameters:
	   dist1 Left or top Distance
	   dist2 Right or bottom distance
       See also:
	   borderDist()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setLabelAlignment (Qt::Alignmentalignment)
       Change the alignment for the labels. See also:
	   QwtScaleDraw::setLabelAlignment(), setLabelRotation()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setLabelRotation (doublerotation)
       Change the rotation for the labels. See QwtScaleDraw::setLabelRotation(). Parameters:
	   rotation Rotation
       See also:
	   QwtScaleDraw::setLabelRotation(), setLabelFlags()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setMargin (intmargin)
       Specify the margin to the colorBar/base line. Parameters:
	   margin Margin
       See also:
	   margin()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setMinBorderDist (intstart, intend) Set a minimum value for the distances of the scale's endpoints from the widget
       borders. This is useful to avoid that the scales are 'jumping', when the tick labels or their positions change often.
       Parameters:
	   start Minimum for the start border
	   end Minimum for the end border
       See also:
	   getMinBorderDist(), getBorderDistHint()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setPenWidth (intwidth)
       Specify the width of the scale pen. Parameters:
	   width Pen width
       See also:
	   penWidth()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setScaleDiv (QwtScaleTransformation *transformation, const QwtScaleDiv &scaleDiv)
       Assign a scale division. The scale division determines where to set the tick marks.
       Parameters:
	   transformation Transformation, needed to translate between scale and pixal values
	   scaleDiv Scale Division
       See also:
	   For more information about scale divisions, see QwtScaleDiv.
   void QwtScaleWidget::setScaleDraw (QwtScaleDraw *sd) Set a scale draw sd has to be created with new and will be deleted in ~QwtScaleWidget() or
       the next call of setScaleDraw().
       Parameters:
	   sd ScaleDraw object
       See also:
	   scaleDraw()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setSpacing (intspacing)
       Specify the distance between color bar, scale and title. Parameters:
	   spacing Spacing
       See also:
	   spacing()
   void QwtScaleWidget::setTitle (const QString &title) Give title new text contents
       Parameters:
	   title New title
       See also:
	   title(), setTitle(const QwtText &);
   void QwtScaleWidget::setTitle (const QwtText &title) Give title new text contents
       Parameters:
	   title New title
       See also:
	   title()
       Warning:
	   The title flags are interpreted in direction of the label, AlignTop, AlignBottom can't be set as the title will always be aligned to
	   the scale.
   QSize QwtScaleWidget::sizeHint () const [virtual] Returns:
	   a size hint
   int QwtScaleWidget::spacing () const Returns:
	   distance between scale and title
       See also:
	   setMargin()
   int QwtScaleWidget::startBorderDist () const Returns:
	   start border distance
       See also:
	   setBorderDist()
   QwtText QwtScaleWidget::title () const Returns:
	   title
       See also:
	   setTitle()
   int QwtScaleWidget::titleHeightForWidth (intwidth) const
       Find the height of the title for a given width. Parameters:
	   width Width
