GLCD Graph Creator XY component
A component to simplify the process of drawing XY graphs and charts using a graphical LCD.

Detailed description
No detailed description exists yet for this component
Examples
The graph creator XY component must be linked to the graphical LCD using the gLCD Object property.
The X Coord, Y Coord, Width and Height component properties set the size and position of the graph on the gLCD.
In the attached example the ADC component sets the input to the graph. Every 50ms a sample is taken and added to the graph.
Any size of graph can be created. For efficiency it is best to try and stick to the following rules.
- The width should be equal to or a multiple of the X input range - Min Value 0 to Max Value 255 = input range of 256
- The height should be equal to or a multiple of the Y input range - Min Value 0 to Max Value 255 = input range of 256
- If Show Border is enabled then Width and Height should be as above plus 2 to account for the border pixels

Properties |
|
Display Properties |
|
gLCD Object |
| Graphical LCD Object to draw the graph on | |
|
ColourDisplay |
| Automatically detects if the graphical LCD object is colour or monochrome | |
|

|
Min X Value |
| Value to represent the bottom Y axis on the graph | |
|
|
Max X Value |
| Value to represent the top Y axis on the graph | |
|
|
Min Y Value |
| Value to represent the bottom Y axis on the graph | |
|
|
Max Y Value |
| Value to represent the top Y axis on the graph | |
|
|

|
|
Show Grid |
| Decides if a X or Y grid is shown for the graph | |
|
|
X Subdivisions |
| Number of horizontal divisions to draw | |
|
|
Y Subdivisions |
| Number of vertical divisions to draw | |
|
|
Theme |
|
Background Colour |
| Determines the graph background colour. | |
|
|
Grid Colour |
| Determines the graph grid colour. | |
