ImageView as hex bin

[Hanno]

Hi,

I'm not sure whether this is the right place for a feature request? If it is not, please let me know.

I use pyqtgraph frequently and build a lot of data visualization around it. I have some data I'd like to show in a hex bin "grid" (similar to https://matplotlib.org/3.1.0/gallery/statistics/hexbin_demo.html). Would it be possible to implement such a feature in, e.g. ImageView.setData(grid = hexbin) or in ImageView itself?

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Hanno

Hi,

A PColorMeshItem was recently added to pyqtgraph, and while it isn't exactly what you want, I could see it being the fundamentals of a hex grid implementation.

Hi Patrick,

thanks for the fast reply. That looks indeed promising.

I'm not sure but I see some challenges there with ROI and pixel selection as well as the histogram widget?

I will definately follow the progress here :-)

Thanks,

Hanno
