40  * \brief A graphical sink to display multiple signals in frequency.
41  * \ingroup instrumentation_blk
42  * \ingroup qtgui_blk
43  *
44  * \details
45  * This is a QT-based graphical sink the takes set of a complex
46  * streams and plots the PSD. Each signal is plotted with a
47  * different color, and the \a set_title and \a set_color
48  * functions can be used to change the label and color for a given
49  * input number.
50  *
51  * The sink supports plotting streaming complex data or
52  * messages. The message port is named "in". The two modes cannot
53  * be used simultaneously, and \p nconnections should be set to 0
54  * when using the message mode. GRC handles this issue by
55  * providing the "Complex Message" type that removes the streaming
56  * port(s).
57  *
58  * This sink can plot messages that contain either uniform vectors
59  * of complex 32 values (pmt::is_c32vector) or PDUs where the data
60  * is a uniform vector of complex 32 values.
61  *
62  * Message Ports:
63  *
64  * - freq (input):
65  * Receives a PMT pair: (intern("freq"), double(frequency)).
66  * This is used to retune the center frequency of the
67  * display's x-axis.
68  *
69  * - bw (input):
70  * Receives a PMT pair: (intern("bw"), double(bandwidth)).
71  * This is used to programmatically change the bandwidth of
72  * of the display's x-axis.
73  *
74  * - freq (output):
75  * Produces a PMT pair with (intern("freq"), double(frequency)).
76  * When a user double-clicks on the display, the block
77  * produces and emits a message containing the frequency of
78  * where on the x-axis the user clicked. This value can be
79  * used by other blocks to update their frequency setting.
80  *
81  * To perform click-to-tune behavior, this output 'freq'
82  * port can be redirected to this block's input 'freq' port
83  * to catch the message and update the center frequency of
84  * the display.
