I use pyqtgraph to draw the candles, but if I zoom graph very much, image hide.
I noticed that when zoom very much, “paint” method stops being called. Code with http request to exchange below.
import pyqtgraph as pg
from pyqtgraph import QtCore, QtGui
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets
class CandlestickItem(QtWidgets.QGraphicsRectItem):
def __init__(self, data):
super(CandlestickItem, self).__init__()
self.data = data
self.generatePicture()
def generatePicture(self):
self.picture = QtGui.QPicture()
p = QtGui.QPainter(self.picture)
p.setPen(pg.mkPen('w'))
w = (self.data[1][0] - self.data[0][0]) / 3.
for (t, open, close, min, max) in self.data:
if max != min:
p.drawLine(QtCore.QPointF(t, min), QtCore.QPointF(t, max))
if open > close:
p.setBrush(pg.mkBrush('r'))
else:
p.setBrush(pg.mkBrush('g'))
p.drawRect(QtCore.QRectF(t - w, open, w * 2, close - open))
p.end()
def paint(self, p, *args):
print('paint call')
p.drawPicture(0, 0, self.picture)
def boundingRect(self):
return QtCore.QRectF(self.picture.boundingRect())
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
import urllib.request
import json
get_symbols_url = 'https://api.hitbtc.com/api/2/public/candles/BCNBTC?period=M30&limit=1000'
response = urllib.request.urlopen(get_symbols_url)
request_data = json.loads(response.read())
data_list = []
for i in range(0, len(request_data)):
data_list.append((float(i), float(request_data[i]['open']), float(request_data[i]['close']),
float(request_data[i]['min']), float(request_data[i]['max'])))
item = CandlestickItem(data_list)
plt = pg.plot()
plt.addItem(item)
if (sys.flags.interactive != 1) or not hasattr(QtCore, 'PYQT_VERSION'):
QtGui.QApplication.instance().exec_()I need to display very small values, for example, 0.0000001-0.00000015. What can I do to prevent image hidden at high zoom?
# import numpy as np
def boundingRect(self):
data = np.array(self.data)
xmin = data[:,0].min()
xmax = data[:,0].max()
ymin = data[:,1:].min()
ymax = data[:,1:].max()
return QtCore.QRectF(xmin, ymin, xmax-xmin, ymax-ymin)request_data = json.loads(data.decode('utf8'))
