      • getDataDimCount

        int getDataDimCount()
        Returns the dimensionality of the plot surface's plot space.
        Returns:
        number of elements in data space coordinate array
      • getPosCoords

        Coord[] getPosCoords()
        Returns the definitions for the user-supplied coordinates that indicate plot positions.
        Returns:
        coordinate quantity array for this geometry
      • readDataPos

        boolean readDataPos​(Tuple tuple,
                            int icol,
                            double[] dpos)
        Determines the positional coordinates in data space for a supplied tuple.

        A parameter supplies the index of the field in the tuple at which the positional coordinate(s) can be found. Each position is represented by getPosCoords() columns of the tuple. By convention positions are at the start of the tuple, so if there is one position in the tuple it will be at icol=0, and there are multiple positions the N'th one will be at icol=N*getPosCoords().

        An array of (at least) getDataDimCount() elements is supplied, and on success the data space coordinate values are written into it.

        Parameters:
        tuple - coordinate tuple
        icol - column index in tuple at which the positional information starts
        dpos - array into which data space coordinates are written
        Returns:
        true iff conversion was successful
      • getVariantName

        java.lang.String getVariantName()
        Returns a label for this DataGeom. It may be used to distinguish from other geoms used in the same plot type, so for instance call it "Cartesian" or "Polar" rather than "Plane" if it's X,Y.
        Returns:
        user-directed input coordinate type name
