Dear r-helpers, Can one save a dynamic graphic produced by rgl, e.g.: open3d(); x <- sort(rnorm(1000)); y <- rnorm(1000); z <- rnorm(1000) + atan2(x,y); plot3d(x, y, z, col=rainbow(1000), size=2) as a dynamic figure that can be embedded in a pdf? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400

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 all, I have a question about the plotting of the dynamical orbit by using rgl. My code is as follows: open3d() par3d(cex=2) bg3d("white") for(i in 1:out.length){ ind<-which plot3d(x[1:i],y[1:i],out[,"z"][1:i],xlim=c(-10,10),ylim=c(-10,10),zlim=c(-10,10),col="red",cex=2) Sys.sleep(0.0001) } ,where x,y,out[,"z"] are the position of the object in

I'm trying to use the rgl package on R-2.7.1 running on top of Ubuntu Hardy amd64. using open3d() and plot3d() I get a plot, but it is not interactive. Furthermore, changes to par3d("FOV"=my.new.value) do nothing. I suspect something is wrong with the rendering engine or interface to it. I do have an Nvidia driver installed and compiz works correctly on the desktop. I've

Hi R users and experts, I am interested in learning more about the use of 3D plots. Specifically, I want to add points and lines to a surface plot. And get the axes and labels plotted also. Here is what I have tried with an example data set : library(rgl) vol2 <- 2*volcano # Exaggerate the relief library(reshape) mvol2 <- melt(vol2) str(mvol2) # First, persp and persp3d plots do not succeed

Hello, I am basically using a script that is designed to first create an rgl 3d scatter plot followed by a barplot on the same data. After this is done, the program is to first save the barplot as a .tiff file then to save the rgl 3d graph as a .png file. Once this is done, it is to repeat this 3d plot and barplot combo with saving 49 more times. The plotting script excerpt will be posted at the

I'd like to use rgl.surface (or some other function if more appropriate) to create a horizontal and vertical transparent grey slice (plane) running through both the x and y origins and extending across the z axis, i.e. the 3-d equivalent of the normal 2-d coordinate axes we are all familiar with. The examples for rgl.surface are a bit more complex than what I need and I am having trouble

Hello R-users, I have downloaded and installed a binary version for Windows OS of ImageMagick (ImageMagick6.5.6-10-q16-windows-dll.exe), I have installed the rgl package and i've tried running the following example from ?movie3d() library(rgl) open3d() plot3d( cube3d(col="green") ) M <- par3d("userMatrix") play3d( par3dinterp( userMatrix=list(M,

Buenas tardes. ¿Sabe alguno de vosotros cómo indicar la variable con la que identificar los puntos con plot3d? library(rgl) plot3d(Data$RTLML,Data$JD,Data$SB) Las muestras pertenecen a una de dos categorías, según la variable "Family", pero no sé cómo hacer que me las represente de diferente color. Gracias, Manuel . -- Dr Manuel

Dear all, I write to the community to know if other people expierenced the same problem. I want to save a rgl scene where I plotted a 3d cloud of spheres whose radius is set proportional to a given variable and coloured by another group variable and with 95% ellipsoids for distribution of any group. I had no problem at all for coding but I had two problem when saving the scene (in any format)

Dear RGL experts, I haven't been able to add greek letters to my rgl plot3d. I have tried "expression" with no success. Here is the interested bit: > library(rgl) > cb <- cube3d() > plot3d(cb,xlab=expression(alpha),ylab="",zlab="",box=FALSE,alpha=0.5) The expression(alpha) appears as "alpha", rather than as a greek symbol. I suspect greek

Hi, I am trying to plot a 3d scatter plot using the rgl package but am having trouble. I have a matrix containing x, y and z co-ordinates and a fourth element related to a count variable. I would like to plot the points using plot3d with the sizes of the points related to the fourth element in the matrix. Is this possible with plot3d or do I need to use something else? I include a small example

Hello, I'm trying to make a 3d plot using rgl in which the size and color of each point corresponds to certain attributes of each data point. The color attribute, let's call it X, is scaled to go from 0 to 1. The rainbow(64,start=0.7,end=0.1) palette is perfect for what I want but I don't know how to take that palette and pick a color from it based on the value of X for a given data

I'm build with the usage of the tcltk/tcltk2 package a gui which is started with rscript.exe. At this gui the user is able to open and close plot windows. Now I'm looking for a way that a r function is called when a grDevices::windows window is closed. Is there a way to attach a callback function or so, which would be triggert if the user click at close of the grDevices::window? My

Hi I'm trying to make a 3d plot showing a point cloud, the corresponding data ellipse and the principal axes of the ellipse as vectors. library(rgl) data(trees) cov <- cov(trees) mu <- mean(trees) plot3d(trees, type="s", size=0.5, col="blue", cex=2) In this step, an extra box is added. I've tried using box=FALSE, but it has no effect. # how to avoid the

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 =

Hi, I'm new here. This question concerns the package rgl. Is it possible to change the colour of a set of points drawn with plot3d /without/ removing them from the scene? The idea is to create a presentation of a clustering algorithm, step by step, representing the currently assigned cluster by a colour. Removing all the points with "rgl.pop" and replotting them at each step

Hi Duncan, I've just read the help for the plot3d function you've written and tried out the example code given at the bottom of the page. I then modified the function by adding an aspect ratio of 0.1 and ran it again, which crashed my R. I am using 2.12.2 on Windows, if that tells you anything. Best wishes, Roman

I am trying to figure out how to use rgl package for animation. It appears that this is done using the play3d() function. Below I have some sample code that plots a 3D path and puts a sphere at the point farthest from the origin (which in this case also appears to be at the end of the path). What I would like to do is animate the movement of another sphere along the length of the path
