       This illustrates how to add more buttons in a plot widget toolbar.
   * - :download:`shiftPlotAction.py <../../../examples/shiftPlotAction.py>`
     - .. image:: img/shiftPlotAction.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script is a simple (trivial) example of how to create a :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWindow`,
       create a custom :class:`~silx.gui.plot.actions.PlotAction` and add it to the toolbar.

       The action simply shifts the selected curve up by 1 unit by adding 1 to each
       value of y.

       with a custom :class:`~silx.gui.plot.actions.PlotAction` added to the toolbar.

       The action computes the FFT of all curves and plots their amplitude spectrum.
       It also performs the reverse transform.

       This example illustrates:
          - how to create a checkable action
          - how to store user info with a curve in a PlotWindow
          - how to modify the graph title and axes labels

       See shiftPlotAction.py for a simpler example with more basic comments.

Add features to :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`
..................................................

Sample code that adds specific tools or functions to plot widgets.

.. list-table::
   :widths: 1 1 4
   :header-rows: 1

   * - Source
     - Screenshot
     - Description
   * - :download:`plotWidget.py <../../../examples/plotWidget.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotWidget.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script shows how to create a custom window around a PlotWidget.

       It subclasses :class:`QMainWindow`, uses a :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`
       as its central widget and adds toolbars and a colorbar by using pluggable widgets:

       - :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget` from :mod:`silx.gui.plot`
       - QToolBar from :mod:`silx.gui.plot.tools`
       - QAction from :mod:`silx.gui.plot.actions`
       - QToolButton from :mod:`silx.gui.plot.PlotToolButtons`
       - :class:`silx.gui.plot.ColorBar.ColorBarWidget`
   * - :download:`plotContextMenu.py <../../../examples/plotContextMenu.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotContextMenu.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates the addition of a context menu to a
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`.

       This is done by adding a custom context menu to the plot area of PlotWidget:
       - set the context menu policy of the plot area to Qt.CustomContextMenu.
       - connect to the plot area customContextMenuRequested signal.

       The same method works with :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWindow.PlotWindow`,
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWindow.Plot1D` and
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWindow.Plot2D` widgets as they
       inherit from :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`.

       For more information on context menus, see Qt documentation.
   * - :download:`plotItemsSelector.py <../../../examples/plotItemsSelector.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotItemsSelector.png
         :width: 150px
     - This example illustrates how to use a :class:`ItemsSelectionDialog` widget
       associated with a :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`
   * - :download:`plotLimits.py <../../../examples/plotLimits.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotLimits.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script is an example to illustrate how to use axis synchronization
       tool.
   * - :download:`plotUpdateCurveFromThread.py <../../../examples/plotUpdateCurveFromThread.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotUpdateCurveFromThread.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates the update of a :mod:`silx.gui.plot` widget from a thread.

       The problem is that plot and GUI methods should be called from the main thread.
       To safely update the plot from another thread, one need to execute the update
       asynchronously in the main thread.
       In this example, this is achieved with
       :func:`~silx.gui.utils.concurrent.submitToQtMainThread`.

       In this example a thread calls submitToQtMainThread to update the curve
       of a plot.
   * - :download:`plotUpdateImageFromThread.py <../../../examples/plotUpdateImageFromThread.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotUpdateImageFromThread.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates the update of a :mod:`silx.gui.plot` widget from a thread.

       The problem is that plot and GUI methods should be called from the main thread.
       To safely update the plot from another thread, one need to execute the update
       asynchronously in the main thread.
       In this example, this is achieved with
       :func:`~silx.gui.utils.concurrent.submitToQtMainThread`.

       In this example a thread calls submitToQtMainThread to update the curve
       of a plot.
   * - :download:`plotInteractiveImageROI.py <../../../examples/plotInteractiveImageROI.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plotInteractiveImageROI.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates image ROI selection in a :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`

       It uses :class:`~silx.gui.plot.tools.roi.RegionOfInterestManager` and
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.tools.roi.RegionOfInterestTableWidget` to handle the
       interactive selection and to display the list of selected ROIs.
   * - :download:`printPreview.py <../../../examples/printPreview.py>`
     - .. image:: img/printPreview.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates how to add a print preview tool button to any plot
       widget inheriting :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PlotWidget`.

       Three plot widgets are instantiated. One of them uses a standalone
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PrintPreviewToolButton.PrintPreviewToolButton`,
       while the other two use a
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot.PrintPreviewToolButton.SingletonPrintPreviewToolButton`
       which allows them to send their content to the same print preview page.
   * - :download:`scatterMask.py <../../../examples/scatterMask.py>`
     - .. image:: img/scatterMask.png
         :width: 150px
     - This example demonstrates how to use ScatterMaskToolsWidget
       and NamedScatterAlphaSlider with a PlotWidget.
   * - :download:`syncaxis.py <../../../examples/syncaxis.py>`
     - .. image:: img/syncaxis.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script is an example to illustrate how to use axis synchronization
       tool.

.. list-table::

   * - Source
     - Screenshot
     - Description
   * - :download:`plot3dContextMenu.py <../../../examples/plot3dContextMenu.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plot3dContextMenu.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script adds a context menu to a :class:`silx.gui.plot3d.ScalarFieldView`.

       This is done by adding a custom context menu to the :class:`Plot3DWidget`:

       - set the context menu policy to Qt.CustomContextMenu.
       - connect to the customContextMenuRequested signal.

       For more information on context menus, see Qt documentation.
   * - :download:`viewer3DVolume.py <../../../examples/viewer3DVolume.py>`
     - .. image:: img/viewer3DVolume.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates the use of :class:`silx.gui.plot3d.ScalarFieldView`.

       It loads a 3D scalar data set from a file and displays iso-surfaces and
       an interactive cutting plane.
       It can also be started without providing a file.
   * - :download:`plot3dSceneWindow.py <../../../examples/plot3dSceneWindow.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plot3dSceneWindow.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script displays the different items of :class:`~silx.gui.plot3d.SceneWindow`.

       It shows the different visualizations of :class:`~silx.gui.plot3d.SceneWindow`
       and :class:`~silx.gui.plot3d.SceneWidget`.
       It illustrates the API to set those items.

       It features:

       - 2D images: data and RGBA images
       - 2D scatter data, displayed either as markers, wireframe or surface.
       - 3D scatter plot
       - 3D scalar field with iso-surface and cutting plane.
       - A clipping plane.
   * - :download:`plot3dUpdateScatterFromThread.py <../../../examples/plot3dUpdateScatterFromThread.py>`
     - .. image:: img/plot3dUpdateScatterFromThread.png
         :width: 150px
     - This script illustrates the update of a
       :class:`~silx.gui.plot3d.SceneWindow.SceneWindow` widget from a thread.

       The problem is that GUI methods should be called from the main thread.
       To safely update the scene from another thread, one need to execute the update
       asynchronously in the main thread.
       In this example, this is achieved with
       :func:`~silx.gui.utils.concurrent.submitToQtMainThread`.

       In this example a thread calls submitToQtMainThread to append data to a 3D scatter.
