similar to: adding text to persp

Any way of mixing bold and plain fonts in text() (or mtext(), etc.)? I'm looking for a solution that doesn't require manually spacing two calls of text(). For example: text(x=0,y=0,labels="bold(Figure 1.) plain(This is a picture.)") where "Figure 1." is bold-faced and "This is a picture." is plain-faced. I've tried to trick plotmath into doing this but

Hello, I would like to plot two superposed surfaces (original data, and smoothed models). Basically, I would like to create a usual persp plot with box, and then superpose a second surface (without box and axes) on the top plane of the box defined by the first graph. I don't know if it is clear :-( Is it possible to draw such a second surface in an existing persp plot in R? Another (related)

I am currently working on surface plots (with R 2.0.1) and I want to improve the aspect of them. Having a typical 'cow-boy hat' surface [source: Spector (1994), p. 206]: pts <- seq(from = -8, to = 8, length = 50) cow <- function(x, y) { z <- sqrt(x^2+y^2) sin(z)/z } out <- outer(pts, pts, cow) sur <- persp(x=pts, y=pts, z=out, theta=45, phi=30) What I exactly wanted is:

Hi, I'm new to R (and math ;) Would somebody please be so kind as to direct me in plotting a 3D sphere? I tried something in the lines of: #### y <- x <- seq(-pi, pi, length=pi*10) f <- function(x,y) { z <- sqrt(pi - x^2 - y^2) #z[is.na(z)] <- 0 z } z <- outer(x, y, f) persp(x, y, z, theta = 120, phi = 30) #### I've also tried: .... make.surface.grid(...) ..

I would to know if it's possible with R put an apex on a character ( i.e 10-2 or aij ) Thanks in advance Damiano -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/attachments/20011105/75518704/attachment.html

I would like to know how I can set with a R-command the values from decimal to exponential (e.g. from 0.001 to 10^-3) on the axis y.

Hi, can anyone help with two questions concerning persp? (1) Is there a function in R to project points onto a persp() plot, as is in S+ (perspp() I think) ? (2) How can I label and tickmark axes x,y and z in a persp plot? (I am still using RW065) Thanks for any help -- Dr. Jens Oehlschl?gel-Akiyoshi MD FACTORY GmbH Bayerstrasse 21 80335 M?nchen Tel.: 089 545 28-27 Fax.: 089 545 28-10

On Linux R1.3.0 (and current pre1.3.1 and pre1.4.0) Sys.sleep(30) interrupt with CTRL-C Sys.sleep(30) causes a segmentation fault.

system.file("",package") is documented to return the root of the package (as it did in the past). It actually returns "" (Win98, R1.3.0), breaking the SJava package Omitting the first argument does work correctly and so is a workaround if the argument is explicitly "" but not if it is the value of a variable. -thomas

R'istas: I am trying to plot a marginal distribution on the plane behind a persp() plot. My existing code is: library(MASS) X <- mvrnorm(1000,mu=c(0,0),Sigma=matrix(c(1,0,0,1),2)) X.kde <- kde2d(X[,1],X[,2],n=25) # X.kde is list: $x 1*n, $y 1*n, $z n*n persp(X.kde,phi=30,theta=60,xlab="x_b",ylab="x_a",zlab="f") ->res Any suggestions are very

I've created a perspective plot using 'persp' in the graphics package. I'd like to add a second plane of z values to the existing plot, but I cannot seem to do this using 'persp'. Is there an analogue to 'lines' or 'points' for perspectives? Corey. corey.bradshaw at cdu.edu.au

R-sters: I'm interested in keeping data plotted in persp to preserve the wireframe look, I'd just like to change one of the lines drawn (in either the x or y direction) into a different color so that it stands out. Or is there some way to add a line (say, via lines(), or abline()) to a persp() plot at the designated x or y that would follow the z surface contour? I could add a line

I am trying to graph two planes on the same graph using persp(). I can only get one plane to plot at a time. Can someone explain how I can graph two planes on the same graph using persp? I've looked throught the documentation, but cannot find any references to appending a persp plot. Thanks. Sincerely yours, Mark J. Lamias Statistical Consultant

I have this data set that both x & y are ordered vectors of length 600 & 700 respectively; z is a 600 by 700 matrix whose entry z[i,j] is either a missing value (indicated by 'NaN') or a real number between 0 and 1. The contour function contour(x,y,z) gives me a blank picture. I guess the reason is that most of z-entries are missing, only less than 1% are non missing.

Hello, I have a problem in drawing a 3d graphic. I simplified the program to show you the problem. I have a text file with hundreds of entries in 3 columns. I scaned these columns with matrix(scan). Then, I transformed some datas. Now I have the datas in h,x,y. I created a new matrix to use persp . But I got an error. The reason is probably the same length of x,y,z. But what can I do the draw

Dear R-devel mailing list, I am wondering whether the "theta" and "phi" parameters of the "persp" function in the graphics commands are named in error (the names seem to have been swapped). Also, in the documentation to "persp", reference is made to "colatitude" when the effect in the image is actually that of "latitude". Thank you,

How can I control de "wrap-around" color behaviour in the persp function ? I am using something like : persp(bb[1:100,2:97], col= rainbow(8,start=0.1, end=0.8))) Depending on the rainbow length value I get several "wrap-around" blocks of the selected color range...something that I wanted to avoid... My idea is to use the color in order to make a separation from a certain

Dear WizaRds, I would like to create a 3d-plot with persp(). I sampled 17 points with xyz-coordinates (real-life example!), representing the peaks of the whole plane with "zero coordinates" x=3,y=3,z=3. My intention is to show which entries are above or below the "zero" level with persp() on a nicely created grid. I also tried scatterplot3d(), but, alas, I am unable

someone sent in a question earlier about doing something in 3D so i took a stab at it purely for educational purposes ( i'm not even sure that I understood the question actually ). Unfortunately, persp gives me an error that I don't understand because it says "object y not found". I'm sending y in as a parameter to persp similar to what ?persp shows in one of oits examples

Hello list. I very often need 3d scatterplots, and use scatterplot3D quite a lot. I am trying to modify persp() to plot scatterplots, and make use of the theta and phi arguments that persp() offers. I am having some difficulty passing the correct arguments to persp(). Here is my function so far. Much of it is copied from the persp() manpage. points3d <- function(x,y,z,
