<p> The <tt>chart</tt> program allows users to create, save, load and visualise
simple data sets. Each data element that the user enters can be given
a color and pattern for the pie segment or bar, some label text and
the text's position and color. The <tt>Element</tt> class is used to
represent data elements.
<p> The program consists of a simple <tt>main.cpp</tt> that loads the chart
form. The chart form has a menubar and toolbar which provide access to
the program's functionality. The program provides two dialogs, one to
set options, and the other to create and edit a data set. Both dialogs
are launched from chart form menu options or toolbar buttons.
<p> The chart form's main widget is a <a href="qcanvasview.html">TQCanvasView</a> which displays the
<a href="qcanvas.html">TQCanvas</a> on which we draw the pie chart or bar graph. We subclass
TQCanvasView to obtain some specialised behaviour. Similarly we
subclass the <a href="qcanvastext.html">TQCanvasText</a> class (used to place text items on a canvas)
since we require slightly more than the standard class provides.
<p> The project file, <tt>chart.pro</tt>, is used to create the Makefile that is
used to build the application.
