    Hi, I have a question maybe you can help me with this.
    In this program how could I change the values in the X axis of the grid, to measure each one 40 mili seconds.
    And then modify the Y axis to be a square, and not the rectangle shape that conforms each part of the grid right now.
    And can you think of a way to just set default values in the "Plot Controls" so the program always start like this and have no need to configure it everytime?

    Hi
    Its controlled via the QCPAxisTicker
    Im not sure if you mean the Big Ticks or the Sub Ticks.
    There is lots of info here
    https://www.qcustomplot.com/index.php/tutorials/basicplotting

    Anyway for the big Ticks.
    if you add to
    void MainWindow::setupPlot()
    around line 220

    QSharedPointer<QCPAxisTickerFixed> fixedTicker(new QCPAxisTickerFixed);
        ui->plot->xAxis->setTicker(fixedTicker);
        fixedTicker->setTickStep(40.0);
        fixedTicker->setScaleStrategy(QCPAxisTickerFixed::ssNone); 
    

    It looks like this
    alt text
    Which might be what you want.

    • Y axis to be a square,
      Well that depends entirely on the y range and step versus the x
      alt text

    • "Plot Controls" new default values.
      You can click on the UI file and alter them there
      alt text

        Hi, how would you get each frame of the small ones to measure 40 milliseconds? I was trying but I can not achieve it.

          You could try ask here
          https://www.qcustomplot.com/index.php/support/forum/
          Its the actual plotter being used in the project.

            Hi, I managed to change the little squares values to 40ms, which is what I needed, though it only look like this when I haven't clicked the Play button. I commented line 208, and add the code in line 210.

            0_1545872017777_Code_changed.PNG

            When clicked, it changes all the x-axis configuration.
            Do you know why is this happening?

            When I run the program

            0_1545871775695_before.PNG

            When I click play button

            0_1545871786170_After.PNG

            (I don't mind the numbers written in the scale like 0.25, 0.5 , 0.75 or 50, 100, 150 etc I just calculated that 20 of those I think they are called ticks is equivalent to 4 seconds, and each one has 5 subticks so, when i did the math realize that each subtick would be 40ms that way)

              @mrjj Excuse one more question, how could you achieve a 50 Hz low pass filter in this serial plotter software?

                    Hi
                    well it seems the code only
                    does an assignment to a double variable.
                    Where is the actual filter function ?

                        Hi
                        oh, you have to move the function outside ( over ) the current function.
                        you define a function inside other function which it complains about.

                            Hi! Did you manage to make fixed tick and subtick count? I need to have ticks every 10mm and subticks every 2mm.
