QCharts Crop to Rectangle and Use Horizontal Scroll

am trying to implement a custom graph going off the QtCharts Callout example. I want to restrict the selection of the chart to a specific area and make it possible to scroll horizontally while still displaying the Axis Values.

the classes i am using are below

callout.cpp

callout.h

main.cpp

view.cpp

view.h

here is an example of what i mean

say i want the selection region point1 = (5,0) point2 = (15,8) and the region is a QRect(point1,point2)

All points in the graph should be rendered but I want to be able to scroll sideways and keep the y_axis in view.

One possible solution is to override the mousePressEvent and mouseMoveEvent methods to apply the scroll, and correct using the axes ranges if necessary:

#include <QtWidgets>
#include <QtCharts>

#include <algorithm>

        if(QValueAxis *yaxis = qobject_cast<QValueAxis *>(chart()->axes(Qt::Vertical).first())){
