OpenGL Accelerated Series Example

Running the Example

You can run the example from:

• Qt Creator

  Open the Welcome mode and select the example from Examples. For more information, see Qt Creator: Tutorial: Build and run.

• Qt Extension for Visual Studio Code

  Run the Qt: Open Qt examples command from the Command Palette, and select the example from the list. For more information, see Qt Extension for Visual Studio Code: Tutorial: Build and run.

Enabling OpenGL Acceleration

To create an OpenGL accelerated series, all you have to do compared to a regular series is to set QAbstractSeries::useOpenGL property to true:

 series->setUseOpenGL(true);

This makes the chart to instantiate a transparent QOpenGLWidget that is used to draw the accelerated series on top of the chart.
