similar to: persp(), axis font size

Hi all, In R, it is not possible to set the font size of axis labels directly (AFAIK). Instead, scaling factors for the font chosen by the graphics device can be supplied. It appears that there is no constant font size for axis labels. My impression is that the axis label font size is scaled internally by R depending on the number of labels given for an axis. In addition to the R-internal

Hi All, I'm using 'tck' option to *reduce* the length of tick marks but it is not working, can anyone please tell me where I'm going wrong... require(graphics) require(grDevices) x <- seq(-10, 10, length= 30) y <- x f <- function(x,y) { r <- sqrt(x^2+y^2); 10 * sin(r)/r } z <- outer(x, y, f) z[is.na(z)] <- 1 # 'bg' works but 'tck' is not showing

hi using plot(..., las=1), i.e. horizontal axis labels, the labels on the y-axis jams if the heigth of the graphics windov becomes too low while both x-axis and y-axis kind of removes superflus lables with las=0 (default) is there a way to make plot behave alike with horizontal lables? regards s??ren

Hello, I am trying to get a surface plot of a data set that looks like the following, 1 2 5.6 5 9 2.4 9 8 9.8 ... to (60,000 rows down) From my homework, the persp function only works with evenly spaced data points with the z data beeing in a matrix. my data is not in that format. the wireframe fxn gives me an error, no applicable method for "wireframe" the

Hi folks, I'm experiencing some hassle to add some text on a persp plot... Here is the code to generate the persp plot: x <- seq(-1.95, 1.95, length = 30) y <- seq(-1.95, 1.95, length = 30) z <- outer(x, y, function(a,b) a*b^2) persp(x, y, z,xlim=c(-2,2),ylim=c(-2,2),zlim=c(-8,8), phi=30, theta=-30,nticks=8,ticktype="detailed") I've tried the text() function :

It is a trivial matter to adjust the linewidth of the axes and plot line in a 2D plot: x <- 1:10; y <- 1:10; par(lwd=2); # axis (and others) linewidth plot(x,y,"l",lwd=6); # plot linewidth Is there anything comparable to this for persp or wireframe? I've tried a number of ways, and the framebox/axes seem to be linked to the linewidth used in generating the

Hello R-help! I am trying to draw series of lines in 3d, and I am not sure how to get the depth set up properly - lines that are in front of other lines appear to be behind and vice versa. I've been doing this by first generating an empty persp plot, then adding lines via the data into trans3d followed by lines (this is probably a bad approach, but it was the first one I could get working).

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 experts, On explanation of persp() parameters the last item is: ...: additional graphical parameters (see `par'). However, setting the `tcl' parameter has no any effect. I guess that axes are added to persp() in somewhat freakish way, and have nothing in common with axis() function. I found the very useful trans3d() function in persp() help page, and I'd like to use it

1. This doesn't work persp(x,y,z,col="grey",xlab="x",ylab="y",zlab="z") but I can get axis lables on x and y by persp(x,y,z,col="grey") title(xlab="x", ylab="y") BUT I can't figure out how to get a label for z. How to do it? 2. To be be consistent with image(), I think persp should make z the axis it now calls y (and

Dear R-users first, thanks to Paul Murrell for fixing my problem "What line is labeled in persp()". It works great now (in the development version). One more question (I don't know if it's related to the "old" problem): the annotation on the z-axis overwrites the numbers at the tickmarks and sometimes, if numbers are pretty long, the numbers themselfe overlap the

Hello, say I have a 2D-matrix (indexed by x and y), which contains z values, which I want to plot over x-y. Either dotted, or if possible as a landscape. I tried around with persp and plot3d (from rgl) and persp3d (from rgl). I sometimes get something that looks good and a while later, when trying some new data I need to worry about that again. Is there something lika a convenience function

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

Hi all, I have a 2D matrix, which has 100 rows, and 100 columns, I have a 2D matrix, with 100 rows and 100 columns, I want to display it using 3D plot, much like plot3d and mesh/surf functions in matlab. Specifically, in matlab, I just need to do the following: -------- [X, Y]=meshgrid([0:0.01:0.99, 0:0.01:0.99]); % Z is my 2D matrix, surf(X, Y, Z); -------- Note that X and Y are created so

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.

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
