Context: I have two or more rgl-based views of a given data set, perhaps fitting different models, or showing different things across views. I want to be able to hand-rotate, zoom, scale one view to something I like, and then show the other views with matching viewpoints and scaling. so that one could flip back/forth among graphs and see only the relevant differences. In 2D, all this usually

Hi R users, Does anyone know how to change the size of 3d charts? I'm using surface3d in rgl package, opening a new window each time to display the chart. I want it so that the chart fills the whole window, because when I output it to png, I don't want all the white space around the chart (right now, i'm getting this white "border" around the chart because the chart is

Dear Rglers, With rgl, I would like to set marker when a button is pressed, but leave the standard trackball handling otherwise. Thanks to Duncan and Oleg for helping me handling key down. How do I say in a custom mouse handler "after having done your work, forward to standard trackball once only"? The example below shows the idea, but it works only once, then reverts to standard

Dear all, The documentation on the function open3d in the rgl package, reads: open3d opens a new rgl device, and sets the parameters as requested. I want the new rgl device (window) to be sized and positioned in a specific place on my screen. So, I try to set the "windowRect" parameter as follows: > library("rgl") > open3d(windowRect=c(100,100,500,500))

Dear Users: I wish to save 3d scatter plots I have generated using the plot3d command in the rgl package. Any image format such as .tiff would work. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R Users, i' wondering, if there is any possibility to render interactive stereoscopic 3d plots in R and use the functionality of those new 3d displays (e.g. with poarisation technology) like this one: > http://shop.fujitsu.com/de/displays/display-p23t-6p-fpr-3d Does anyone know if there are developments toward this feature? Or perhaps someone know how to implement such a

Hi First, sorry if I get the terminology wrong, I am still quite new to the concept of using environments and workspaces. Say I have a statement in a package SIM like sim <- TYPE where the variable TYPE is initialized in the package to e.g. "exponential" (SIM::TYPE == "exponential"). Now, I want to give the user the option of specifying the variable TYPE, but to the

Hi there, Anyone has an idea how to put those two sets of code together so that I can get a 3-dimensional picture that includes points instead of 2 separate pictures which doesnt make that much sense at the end. #Let's say that these are the data we would like to plot: A<-c(62,84,53) B<-c(64,82,55) C<-c(56,74,41) D<-c(46,68,38) E<-c(71,98,72) data<-rbind(A,B,C,D,E)

Dear Daniel (and Duncan): back in January you reported that you were having trouble saving an rgl movie on Vista. I don't know if you ever got that resolved, but a student of mine is now having a similar problem, not specific to dynamic graphics (which would have to be a problem outside of rgl anyway). He may report more on the symptoms, but essentially rgl.snapshot produces black or funky

I'm checking a new release of vcdExtra via win builder with R-devel 2014-10-29 r66897 and have run into a Warning I don't know how to fix. I have one S3 generic, mosaic3d() that uses rgl and don't want to have rgl always loaded via Depends:. Instead, the mosaic3d.default() method includes if (!require(rgl)) stop("rgl is required") This always worked in the past, but

Dear useRs, I have several problems in using rgl-0.77 (and recent earlier versions) on Gentoo Linux with a custom-built v. 2.6.22 kernel. Currently I use R-2.6.1. When I build rgl, # R CMD INSTALL "/home/liviu/inst/dwn/R/rgl_0.77.tar.gz" or install.packages("rgl", dependencies=TRUE, method ="wget"), I notice the following warning messages: i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++

Hi, I try to execute the seven lines of code below to plot a graph. But I am failing as the messages below show. Where am I going wrong? install.packages("rgl") library(rgl) y_hat = X%*%B_hat open3d(windowRect = c(100,100,900,900),family = "serif") color = rainbow(length(y_hat))[rank(y_hat)] plot3d(educ,exper,wage,col = color,type = "s",size = 0.5,xlim =

Dear all, I'm trying to run a script that requires KernSmooth in BATCH mode but I get an error while loading rgl library that is needed by KernSmooth. Actually I have to run several batch files through a queue of a cluster, so I wouldn't need graphics at all. I installed the latest releases of R (2.6.1) and rgl on my CentOS 4.2 Linux (clone of Red Hat EL) endowed with Rocks 4.2.1 suite

Hello Im trying to install package rgl in a freshly installed Ubuntu 8.04 system. I have a problem (actually is has been reported three times on the R-list but the answers were too complicated for me) when installing: configure: using libpng dynamic linkage checking for X... no configure: error: X11 not found but required, configure aborted. ERROR: configuration failed for package 'rgl'

Dear R-SIG-Fedora, I'm finding that on CentOS 7, rgl.snapshot (a function in the R package rgl, which provides an R interface to the OpenGL 3-d graphics library) only captures a small portion what's visible in the RGL device window. This does not happen with the same R and rgl versions on CentOS 5.3 (see details below). The maintainer of rgl, Duncan Murdoch, responded (see below) that

Hello, I have been experiencing an odd error with the RGL package that I cannot figure out. I have searched without luck for fixes to this problem on Rseek, Google, and the R-help-list. RGL used to work on my machine about a month ago. It was a very useful tool. The graphics device will not initialize now, and I cannot figure out why. When I try to load the package using ... >

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) ~

Dear R-users, within the rgl-package, I would have a question about the usage of persp3d in combination of rgl.viewpoint. I am not able to figure out how to let a 3D plot rotating around likewise the example in ?rgl.viewpoint. It seems that when I use persp3d(...) I see something on my screen, which is different from what I get when it's rotating. Is there any different behavior between
