I can't get Emacs to automatically do syntax highlighting of Sweave files. I have followed Friedrich's suggestion for code to insert into my .emacs file. The complete section from my .emacs file is given below. When I load a *.Snw file, font is white until I press M-x, then the first code and document chunks get highlighted, but not the rest of the file. Latex and Noweb menus are

I am using levelplot() from lattice with grids that have unequal cell sizes. This means that the boundary between two cells is not always half-way between nodes, as levelplot() assumes. The result is that some cell sizes are rendered incorrectly, which can be painfully obvious if using relatively large cells. Is there any work-around? I am using the conditioning capability of lattice and

I'm looking for a way to plot lines on top of a levelplot(), where the lines are borders between cells of different values. The clines() function provides contours suitable for continuous data. I am dealing with discrete values, spatial clusters of nodes where each cluster has an integer value, and I want to plot the borderlines between these areas. So, in a levelplot having nodes with

Can anyone tell me how to obtain a custom scale for the colorkey in each levelplot of a lattice? I am using lattice and levelplot to plot z = f(x, y) for multiple z variables. x and y values are the same across plots, but units for z are different and therefore I need to create a custom scale for each plot's key. It follows that I need to place each plot's key inside that plot's

I can't find a way to change just the panel background color in lattice. I would like NA regions in levelplot() to appear black. I've tried the trellis.par.set() stuff, but it it makes the background of the whole graphic black. Thanks, Scott Waichler Pacific Northwest National Laboratory scott.waichler _at _ pnl.gov

Hi, [I'mm cc-ing r-help on this, since some others might be interested (Tony Rossini is, at least)] Yes, I saw your mail and was wondering about what would be the best approach to do it. It's definitely not trivial, mainly because Trellis is not designed to handle factors on the x-axis (chiefly for convenience, as factors typically have long names which are difficult to write on the

I searched CRAN for material on gant (or Gantt) charts, those schedule plots that look like horizontal barplots where the x-axis is time. Finding none, I wrote the following and am submitting it to the archive so that it may help someone in the future. plotfile <- "gant.eps" regular.color <- "lightgray" important.color <- "yellow" tasks <- list() #

Hi, I'm trying to install rimage on a Mac OS X 10.4 machine. I followed the advice in previous R-help threads and got over the hurdles of having the header files in the right places, among other things. But I can't figure out what to do with this error. ice.pnl.gov:/home/waichler<949>system_profiler -detailLevel mini SPSoftwareDataType Software: System Software Overview:

How can I get the value of the aspect ratio that is used in a lattice plot? In a levelplot for instance, the native units per cm of my x and y axes are different, and I need to know the aspect ratio so that I can correctly plot vectors. I know how to set the aspect in a high-level lattice function but I can't quite figure out how to get it. I would like call to levelplot() without printing

My newly installed R-2.1.0 apparently doesn't like forward slashes in filenames: > R.version.string [1] "R version 2.1.0, 2005-04-18" > plotfile <- "\home\mean_monthly_stl.eps" > postscript(plotfile) > plotfile <- "/home/mean_monthly_stl.eps" > postscript(plotfile) *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x098e7180 *** Abort

I have been using the sp package to deal with gridded data. I would like to know how to extract the vertices (x,y) of polygons that outline areas of like-valued cells in a grid. Here is a simple 3x3 grid: 2 2 1 1 2 1 1 1 3 x <- c(1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3) # define a 3 x 3 array of points y <- c(1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) h <- SpatialPoints(cbind(x,y)) # make these an sp object of the points

The handy function summary() doesn't work correctly with Date class objects: > R.version.string [1] "R version 1.9.1, 2004-06-21" > b <- as.Date(c("2002-12-26", "2002-12-27", "2002-12-28", "2002-12-29", "2002-12-30")) > b [1] "2002-12-26" "2002-12-27" "2002-12-28" "2002-12-29"

I'm making some 3D plots with contour3d from misc3d and wireframe from lattice. I want to view them from below; i.e. the negative z-axis. I can't figure out how to do so. I would like my point of view looking up from below, with the z, y, and x axes positive going away. Can anyone tell me the correct settings for screen to achieve this? Here is what I've found so far:

I would like to use a map or aerial photo as a background to plotting solid lines and text, and semi-transparent color contours, in base and lattice graphics. Plot coordinates need to be consistent with the georeferenced background. For example, a color contour plot would have an gray-toned aerial photograph as a background for overprinted semi-transparent color contours of some spatially

I installed R-2.1.0 from source on a Linux box running Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 but install.packages() wouldn't work (see below). When I install R-2.0.1 from RPM on the same system, everything is fine.

I have a script containing an xyplot() to print to a postscript file, followed by dev.off(). When I source the script, the dev.off() seems to cut off the xyplot() execution before it is finished. The resulting postscript file has about the right size, but it appears blank when I try to view it. If I manually execute the xyplot(), then wait for the return of the R prompt before executing

I am trying to process text fields scanned in from a csv file that is output from the Windows database program FileMakerPro. The characters onscreen look like regular text, but R does not like their underlying binary form. For example, one of text fields contains a name and a number, but R recognizes the number as something other than what it appears to be in plain text. The character string

How can I access examples of trellis graphs in R? I'm especially interested in getting code for xyplot() examples. Failing a collection of examples in R, I see that under Splus there are numerous example.*() functions. I can access Splus with a command line but can't open a graphics window, so I can't to execute the example.*() functions. Is there a way I could get the associated

I am looking for examples of how to plot with contour3d() to a PNG or PDF file, add axes and other elements to the isosurface plot, and use contour3d in conjunction with lattice. Regarding lattice, I'm not necessarily looking for conditioning on the data shown in the isosurface plots, just a way to show multiple plots in one figure and label them. I am new to the packages misc3d and rgl.

Hi, I often use the mod() and instring() functions that are available in the clim.pact package. This package has a lot of dependencies, including installation of netCDF, and I haven't yet been able to get library(clim.pact) to work on a Mac OS 10.4.6. A previous request for help with the Mac problem yielded no results, so now I wonder if I could just extract the definitions for the couple
