That's true, I definitely can do the interpolation, I'm just avoiding it both because Qt has already done it somewhere in the backend, and because it's going to be messy - as I mentioned I need to draw a vertical line for every pixel's width of the QChart, so it'll be a slope between every point, and then draw up to whatever height it needs. It would be nice to get the smoothness of a spline series as well, but I guess that's just higher order interpolation. I guess what I'm looking for is a way to return a vector of points that describe where, in pixel values, the QChart has drawn the line, but that might be too much to ask. ;)
Thanks for your response - I'll probably do the interpolation myself unless someone else knows the magic function call!
