QGLColormap is especially useful when using the OpenGL color-index mode.</p> <p>Under X11 you must use an X server that supports either a <tt>PseudoColor</tt> or <tt>DirectColor</tt> visual class. If your X server currently only provides a <tt>GrayScale</tt>, <tt>TrueColor</tt>, <tt>StaticColor</tt> or <tt>StaticGray</tt> visual, you will not be able to allocate colorcells for writing. If this is the case, try setting your X server to 8 bit mode. It should then provide you with at least a <tt>PseudoColor</tt> visual. Note that you may experience colormap flashing if your X server is running in 8 bit mode.</p> <p>The <a href="qglcolormap.html#size">size</a>() of the colormap is always set to 256 colors. Note that under Windows you can also install colormaps in child widgets.</p> <p>This class uses <a href="implicit-sharing.html">implicit sharing</a> as a memory and speed optimization.</p> <p>Example of use:</p> <pre class="cpp"> <span class="preprocessor">#include <QApplication></span> <span class="preprocessor">#include <QGLColormap></span> <span class="type">int</span> main(<span class="type">int</span> argc<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">char</span> <span class="operator">*</span>argv<span class="operator">[</span><span class="operator">]</span>) { <span class="type"><a href="qapplication.html">QApplication</a></span> app(argc<span class="operator">,</span> argv); MySuperGLWidget widget; <span class="comment">// a QGLWidget in color-index mode</span> <span class="type">QGLColormap</span> colormap; <span class="comment">// This will fill the colormap with colors ranging from</span> <span class="comment">// black to white.</span> <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type">int</span> size <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">256</span>; <span class="keyword">for</span> (<span class="type">int</span> i <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">0</span>; i <span class="operator"><</span> size; <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i) colormap<span class="operator">.</span>setEntry(i<span class="operator">,</span> <a href="qtgui.html#qRgb">qRgb</a>(i<span class="operator">,</span> i<span class="operator">,</span> i)); widget<span class="operator">.</span>setColormap(colormap); widget<span class="operator">.</span>show(); <span class="keyword">return</span> app<span class="operator">.</span>exec(); } </pre><hr /><h2>Method Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="QGLColormap" />QGLColormap.__init__ (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Construct a <a href="qglcolormap.html">QGLColormap</a>.</p> <h3 class="fn"><a name="QGLColormap-2" />QGLColormap.__init__ (<i>self</i>, <a href="qglcolormap.html">QGLColormap</a>)</h3><p>Construct a shallow copy of <i>map</i>.</p> <h3 class="fn"><a name="detach" />QGLColormap.detach (<i>self</i>)</h3><h3 class="fn"><a name="entryColor" /><a href="qcolor.html">QColor</a> QGLColormap.entryColor (<i>self</i>, int <i>idx</i>)</h3><p>Returns the <a href="qcolor.html#QRgb-typedef">QRgb</a> value in the colorcell with index <i>idx</i>.</p> <h3 class="fn"><a name="entryRgb" />int QGLColormap.entryRgb (<i>self</i>, int <i>idx</i>)</h3><p>Returns the <a href="qcolor.html#QRgb-typedef">QRgb</a> value in the colorcell with index <i>idx</i>.</p> <h3 class="fn"><a name="find" />int QGLColormap.find (<i>self</i>, int <i>color</i>)</h3><p>Returns the index of the color <i>color</i>.
