## Detailed Description

In QXYSeries, data points are defined as a list of QPointF, defining X and Y positions.

See also QLineSeries and QScatterSeries.

## Property Documentation

### color : QColor

This property holds the main color of the series. For QLineSeries this means the line color and for QScatterSeries the color of the point.

Access functions:

QColor | color() const
void | setColor(QColor newColor)

Notifier signal:

void | colorChanged(QColor color)

### `[read-only]` count : const qsizetype

Returns the number of data points in a series.

Access functions:

qsizetype | count() const

Notifier signal:

void | countChanged()

### draggable : bool

Controls if the series is draggable.

Controls if the series can be dragged with mouse/touch. By default, draggable is set to `false`.

Access functions:

bool | isDraggable() const
void | setDraggable(bool newDraggable)

Notifier signal:

void | draggableChanged()

### pointDelegate : QQmlComponent*

This property holds a custom QML Component used as a marker for data points.

The dynamic properties available for this component are:

Type | Name | Description
--- | --- | ---
bool | pointSelected | This value is true when the point is selected, meaning that the point index is in QXYSeries::selectedPoints.
QColor | pointColor | The color of the series. This value comes either from the QGraphsTheme or from QXYSeries::color if the QXYSeries overrides the color.
QColor | pointBorderColor | The border color of the series. This value comes from the QGraphsTheme.
QColor | pointSelectedColor | The selected color of the series. This value comes either from the QGraphsTheme or from QXYSeries::selectedColor if the QXYSeries overrides the color.
qreal | pointBorderWidth | The border width of the series. This value comes from the QGraphsTheme.
qreal | pointValueX | The value of the QXYPoint::x at this position.
qreal | pointValueY | The value of the QXYPoint::y at this position.
int | pointIndex | The index of the point, from 0 to the amount of points - 1. [since 6.9]

To use any of these, add property with the defined name into your custom component. For example `"property color pointColor"` and `"property real pointValueX"`.

Access functions:

QQmlComponent * | pointDelegate() const
void | setPointDelegate(QQmlComponent *newPointDelegate)

Notifier signal:

void | pointDelegateChanged()

### selectedColor : QColor

This property holds the color of selected points.

Access functions:

QColor | selectedColor() const
void | setSelectedColor(QColor color)

Notifier signal:

void | selectedColorChanged(QColor color)

### `[read-only]` selectedPoints : const QList<qsizetype>

This property holds the indexes of the points which are currently selected.

Access functions:

QList<qsizetype> | selectedPoints() const

Notifier signal:

void | selectedPointsChanged()
