  • GRAPH widget for MPP tracking application

    Hi there,

    I want to use the GRAPH widget in XY mode in order to display an MPPT curve in real time (like in the attached image). Therefore I want to indicate the maximum power point and the corresponding current value with a marker (cross or circle). I was already able to modify the example WIDGET_GraphXY.c in order to get the expected behavior with the aid of a owner draw callback function (see attached source file).
    Unfortunately I am not completely satisfied with my solution and therefore I have the following questions:

    1. Is it possible to update a single graph data object without calling GRAPH_DATA_XY_Clear() and GRAPH_DATA_XY_AddPoint()? I was looking for an invalidation function like WM_InvalidateWindow() but without success...

    2. Is it possible to get the index of the currently drawn point in the user defined owner draw callback function? I would like to look for the "MPP" value in the data array before I draw the graph and then I want to draw the indicator at the corresponding point index in the user defined owner draw callback function.

    3. Is there a WM message or notification which informs me if the graph data object is cleared, updated or if a point is added?


    I also found this thread How to make marker on graph widget in the forum, but I think that my solution with the owner draw callback function would be more elegant.

    Furthermore I noticed that there are some undocumented function declarations in GRAPH.h...

    Hope you can help me.

    regards Thomas
