similar to: heplot3d / rgl : example causes R GUI to crash

Running: R Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01), debian stable I'm testing an application that uses rgl (installed with apt-get install r-cran-rgl) but fails, at least partly because that application uses a more current version. There is also a mysterious error msg from Xlib: > library(car) > library(rgl) > iris.mod <- lm(cbind(Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width, Petal.Length, Petal.Width) ~

I've just released the latest R-Forge versions of heplots 0.9-3 and candisc 0.5-18 to CRAN. They should appear there within a day or two. == heplots The heplots package provides functions for visualizing hypothesis tests in multivariate linear models (MANOVA, multivariate multiple regression, MANCOVA, etc.). They represent sums-of-squares-and-products matrices for linear hypotheses and for

In building a package, what are the settings in the package files or the build commands that determine whether the compiled HTML help windows have the window title "R Help for package foo" vs. "HTML Help"? I often have quite a few help files active, and it is much more convenient to navigate among them if the window has an informative title. If this is simple to test for in

I'm trying to extend some work in the car and heplots packages that requires getting a table of multivariate means for one (or later, more) terms in an mlm object. I can do this for concrete examples, using aggregate(), but can't figure out how to generalize it. I want to return a result that has the factor-level combinations as rownames, and the means as the body of the table

This may be elementary, but I can't find an answer: How can I set up global options for some specific arguments to functions in a package which can be easily changed by the user? This question relates to the selection of colors used in functions in several packages (heplots, genridge), where I want to provide reasonable default values for plots, but allow users to change those defaults

Hello, I am having trouble loading the package candisc onto my R distribution. I am using 2.7.1-2. I do a "> install.packages("candisc" and get the following output. Warning in install.packages("candisc") : argument 'lib' is missing: using '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library' --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- Loading Tcl/Tk

I'm working on some functions for generalized canonical discriminant analysis in conjunction with the heplots package. I've written a candisc.mlm function that takes an mlm object and computes a candisc object containing canonical scores, coeficients, etc. But I'm stumped on how to construct a mlm for the canonical scores, in a function using the *same* right-hand-side of the model

I'm trying to write a function to find the means over factors of the responses in a mlm (something I would do easily in SAS with PROC SUMMARY). The not-working stub of a function to do what I want is below, and my problem is that I don't know how to call aggregate (or some other function) in the context of terms in a linear model extracted from a lm/mlm object. means.mlm <-

[Using R 2.7.2 on Windows XP] After re-building our heplots package, I've begun to get the following error from sessionInfo(), even though it passes R CMD check and builds without errors: > sessionInfo() Error in x$Priority : $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors In addition: Warning message: In FUN(c("MASS", "heplots", "car", "rgl",

[Using R 2.8.0 / Win XP / ] I just added a CITATION file to the heplots package--- appended below. From the document ion for ?CITATION, there can be *one or more* calls to citEntry() within the CITATION file, and each should produce an object of class "citation". With just a single citEntry(), citation produces the expected output, with BibTeX entry: >

[Env: Win Xp / StatET 2.0 / R 2.15.0] In my heplots package I extended the HE-examples.Rnw vignette under inst/doc.

[Env: R 2.14.2 / Win Xp] In the examples below, I'm using lattice::bwplot to plot boxplots of 4 variables, grouped by a factor 'epoch' which also corresponds to a numeric year. I'd like to modify the plots to position the boxplots according to the numeric value of year, but I can't figure out how to do this. Also, I'd to modify the strip labels that give the variable

A new function in my heplots package wants to use a non-exported utility function in the car package, df.terms, but this depends on other non-exported functions. From the Writing R extensions manual, I thought I could do this via (in my NAMESPACE) importFrom(car, car:::df.terms, car:::df.terms.default, car:::is.aliased) but I get: ** preparing package for lazy loading Error : objects

I have a diagram to be included in latex, where all my figures are .eps graphics (so pdflatex is not an option) and I want to achieve something like the following: three concentric filled circles varying in lightness or saturation. It is easiest to do this using transparency, but in my test using the postscript driver, the transparent color fills do not appear. Is it correct that postscript()

Dear List, I'm trying to draw vector in XYZ with rgl under use of a cylinder3d. Therefore I scale and rotate a basis-cylinder). However, somehow the rotation is wrong as verified by overplotting arrow3d().

Barrett & Ling, JASA, 1992, v.87(417), pp184-191 define general classes of influence measures for multivariate regression models, including analogs of Cook's D, Andrews & Pregibon COVRATIO, etc. As in univariate response models, these are based on leverage and residuals based on omitting one (or more) observations at a time and refitting, although, in the univariate case, the
