Plotting framework

Question

I'm in no way an expert on programming, not even close, and I'm event worse at GUI programming. But for a project I need to do some simple point datasets and line plots. And I need to be able to do dynamic updates.

Does anyone know any good frameworks for doing this, I would like either a Cocoa or perhaps a Qt C/C++ framework.

The other option would be to make a Qt widget myself, there are properbly lots of good tutorials out there on that, does anyone know any?

My data is going to be (x,y) with a sliding window over the x-axis.

qwt is what you need if you want to use Qt.

It's really poorly documented but there's a tutorial here

Yep, but since its for a customer I would like some more eye candy, do you know any frameworks that do that? Or if qwt does it, would you post some links to examples? – Martin Kristiansen May 29 '11 at 15:45

Lots of suggestions here Is there any 'out-of-the-box' 2D/3D plotting library for C++?

MathGL is GPL plotting library which have both: QMathGL for Qt widget with plot, and mglGraphQT (or mglGraphFLTK, or mglGraphGLUT) for external window with plot. See these samples for more details.
