public interface SurfaceChart
extends SurfacesChart

The surface chart allows to display data that is distributed on a grid as a bended surface. The surface is determined by its datapoints, which are arranged in a 2 dimenstional grid. The distances of the grid may vary. The colors of the surface are calculated based on the height of it's datapoints.

Method Summary

double	getValue(int x, int z) Gets the current value of the datapoint determined by the indices.
void	setValue(int x, int z, double value) Sets the value of a datapoint of the surface.
void	setValues(List<GridValueElement> l) Sets a list of values, what is more efficient than setting them as single values.

Method Detail

setValue

void setValue(int x,
              int z,
              double value)

Sets the value of a datapoint of the surface.

Parameters:

x - the x-coordinate of the datapoint

z - the z-coordinate of the datapoint

value - the new value for this datapoint

getValue(int, int), setValues(List)

setValues

void setValues(List<GridValueElement> l)

Sets a list of values, what is more efficient than setting them as single values.

Parameters:

l - the list of values to update

getValue

double getValue(int x,
                int z)

Gets the current value of the datapoint determined by the indices.

Parameters:

x - the x-coordinate of the datapoint

z - the z-coordinate of the datapoint

Returns:

the current value of this datapoint
