Wrapping Up

+ + +

The chart application shows how straight-forward it is to create +applications and their dialogs with Qt. Creating menus and toolbars is +easy and Qt's signals and slots +mechanism considerably simplifies GUI event handling. +

Manually creating layouts can take some time to master, but there is +an easy alternative: Qt Designer. +Qt Designer includes simple but +powerful layout tools and a code editor. It can automatically generate +main.cpp and the .pro project file. +

The chart application is ripe for further development and +experimentation. You might consider implementing some of the following +ideas: +

Use a QValidator subclass to ensure that only valid doubles are +entered as values. +
Adding more chart types, e.g. line graph, area graph and hi-lo +graph. +
Allowing the user to set top, bottom left and right margins. +
Allowing the user to specify a title which they can drag into +position like the labels. +
Providing an axis drawing and labelling option. +
Providing an option to provide a key (or legend) instead of labels. +
Adding a 3D look option to all chart types. +
