[R] formatting numbers along axes as percents for perspective plot
Hello, I'm producing a 3D plot using the persp function. All my values for X, Y, and Z are decimals ranging from 0 to 1. I'd like to be able format the three axes so that the tick values are 0% 20% 40%, etc... instead of just being 0 .2 .4. Does anyone know how to do this? Many thanks, Steve [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Have you considered multiplying all values by 100? On Jun 12, 2009, at 7:56 PM, Stephen Samaha wrote:> Hello, I'm producing a 3D plot using the persp function.

Further option would be scatterplot3d in {scatterplot3d} which does provide facility for sending a vector of axis labels to the x,y, and z axes.
