Hello, I need to chenge axes orirentation in triangle plot. (function triangle.plot in ade4 package) I want to plot elasticities of some species in demographic triangle, where axes values commnly increace "clockwise". If some better imangination is needed, see http://www.open.ac.uk/science/biosci/personalpages/j.silvertown/pdfs/Silvertown%20et%20al.%201993.pdf I am sorry if I just can't see some simple way or some argument in hlep file. Do you know how to solve my problem please? Or do you know about some other function from other package where it is possible? Thank you, Filip Kral. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/triangle.plot---change-the-axes-orientation-tp15615306p15615306.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[R] triangle.plot - change the axes orientation
Try the triax.plot in plotrix package http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/plotrix/html/triax.plot.html Zhaoming -----Original Message----- From: WCD [mailto:vydramail at quick.cz] Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2008 12:21 PM To: r-help at r-project.org Subject: [R] triangle.plot - change the axes orientation Hello, I need to chenge axes orirentation in triangle plot.

There are several implementations of these plots in different packages,
The ones I know of are:
'triangle.plot' in package ade4, 'ternaryplot' in package vcd,
'tri' in package cwhtool, 'soil.texture' and
'triax.plot' in
package plotrix, and 'triplot' in TeachingDemos.
(are there any others that I should add to the list?)
One of those may come closer to what you want (they all have different
sets of bells or whistles) or you could start with one of those and
modify the function to do what you want. Looking at the different
examples may also give you some ideas of how to present the data.
Hope this helps,
