This requires rotating them, which can be achieved by specifying rotation quaternion to each item: \snippet rotations/scatterdatamodifier.cpp 0 \snippet rotations/scatterdatamodifier.cpp 1 \snippet rotations/scatterdatamodifier.cpp 2 Since the items need to be rotated along two axes, we define two rotation quaternions, one for Y-axis and one for Z-axis, and then multiply these together to get the total rotation, which we set to the data item. \section1 Using custom item meshes The narrow arrow mesh we use for magnetic field arrow items is not a standard mesh. Instead we supply our own \c{narrowarrow.obj} file which contains the object definition for the mesh in \c Wavefront obj format: \snippet rotations/scatterdatamodifier.cpp 3 \section1 Using range gradient Setting the color style to range gradient in a series means that the item is colored according to its relative Y-value on the visible Y-coordinate range. We want the arrows on the bottom part of the graph to be darker and gradually get lighter higher they are, so we define a range gradient with black color at the position 0.0 and white color at the position 1.0: \snippet rotations/scatterdatamodifier.cpp 4 \section1 Example contents */
