Hi, I was wondering if someone in the mailing list has any insight into this segfault error that I consistently find when running a script containing heatmap() in R 2.8.1 and 2.8.0 on a Linux 64-bit machine. Some points: 1. This occurs when running heatmap(). 2. Interestingly, if I source() the script or copy and paste the script in its entirety, this error occurs. However, if I run the

Hi, This may be an easy question, but let me ask it. When writing a plot to a jpeg file: > plot(runif(30)) > dev.print(file="test.jpeg", device=jpeg, width=600) the plot I receive has gray background, the result on no account I want to receive. The same situation occurs when printing to a bmp file. But when printing a pdf file, the background is white as it should be. What

In Splus, I often use graphics windows with a black background and white foreground. The S print.graph() function sends the current plot to my printer but with a white background and black foreground. I'd like to be able to do something similar in R, but can't figure out how. I've tried various permutations of dev.copy() and dev.print(), but it seems that the foreground color is

In the example R script below, horizontal gray gridlines are drawn at y coordinates where the points are drawn with the code: panel.abline(h=y, v=xScale, col.line="gray") How do I change this so that the horizontal gray gridlines are drawn at y coordinates where the y labels are drawn? The challenge is that each panel has different y-ranges (in my real example the y-ranges and

Hi, Imagine you have a program that contains information on an entity called a Player. There can be lots of Players, say a thousand of them. Players have 20 or so attributes, two of them are an X and Y position. The Players'' attributes are updated many times per second. Now imagine you need to create a web app that shows a 2D overhead display of the all the Players. A grid should be

Dear useRs, When I use coplot() and output to png/jpeg/bmp, the grid lines from the scatter plots disappear. If I output to pdf() the grid lines are there, however I can't use it - I have many points, and the resulting PDF file is large and very slow to open and scroll through. (By the way, if I click File-Save As-png/jpeg/bmp from Rgui.exe, the grid lines are preserved - but I need to use

Dear expeRts, I would like to colorize the backgrounds of a pairs plot according to the respective panel number. Here is what I tried (without success): count <- 0 mypanel <- function(x, y, ...){ count <<- count+1 bg. <- if(count %in% c(1,4,9,12)) "#FDFF65" else NA points(x, y, cex=0.5, bg=bg) } U <- matrix(runif(4*500), ncol=4) pairs(U, panel=mypanel) I

Hi there, I'm having trouble working out how to change the colors of polygon shading lines. If I plot a polygon with polygon(poly,density=30,borders=gray(0.5)) I get gray borders but black shading lines; I have tried adding col=gray(0.5), bg=gray(0.5) and fg=gray(0.5), but no luck. How can I change the colors of the shading? The help file doesn't seem to detail this, so any

Dear R-help, Can some one explain why barplot() uses changing colors in the bars by default? I should think that most of the time when people draw barplots, they want the bars to be in the same color. (At least that's what I'd expect. The first time I used barplot() in R, I was shocked to see the colors.) As an example, one example in ?layout draws a scatterplot with histograms drawn

Hello, I am having difficulty obtaining the correct colors in my R charts. > colors()[c(552, 254, 26)] [1] "red" "green" "blue" But, if I specify col=552 in my barplot, I get gray bars. Likewise, col=254 gives bright pink, and col=26 is a red-orange. I get accurate results when I spell out the names, but I am making a pallet with 20- 30 colors and it is a

When I try writing the current device to a jpeg file I keep getting a gray background for the jpeg images using dev.print. I have tried using the option bg="white" and bg="#FFFFFF" but neither seem to have any effect. If instead of writing to a screen device I open a jpeg device I can get any background color I want. This works, but I prefer to write to the screen and then

Hi all, Roger Peng and Jason Turner's suggestion with ImageMagick seem to be the simplest "dirty" way to get the problem solved. But I ran into yet another interesting but quite round-about way to solve the problem (partially). Through tcltk package, one can read in the gif image with > x <- tkcmd("image", "create", "photo", file=mypic.gif)

Hi, I am having trouble debugging this one. The code is attached below, but it seems to be a problem at the C-tk interface. If I run this 1 time there are no problems if I run it more than once I start to get warnings that increase in multiples of 11 everytime I run it. Here is a sample session > source("clrramp2.r") Loading required package: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done

Hi all, I have difficulty understanding WxRuby / WxWidgets event handling, hoping someone here can lend us some light. Im writing a simple gui app where I need to receive mouse click events from the shapes drawn on a canvas (a simple object inheriting from ScrolledWindow, as seen in many examples). Shapes arent buttons so I think I''ll need to be checking the coordinates to be able to

I forgot to mention that the bg="white" trick works on the plot (making the empty symbols opaque), but it does NOT work in the legend.

Hello, I apologize that this is off-topic. I am seeking information on perception of graphical data, in an effort to improve the plots I produce. Would anyone point me to literature reviews in this area? (Or keywords to try on google?) Is this located somewhere near cognitive science, psychology, human factors research? For example, some specific questions I have are: I recall as a child

Dear All, I am wondering if there is a way to change the color of the panels of the xyplot (lattice package) from "gray" to "white" ...... Because the printing of the xyplot's graph is not visible with the gray color ... I've seen the xyplot help but without any success Thanks lot in advance, Bernard, ---------------------------------

Hi wxRuby Gurus, I''m trying to write a sample program which allows me to drag an image (by left_mouse_button down) across the canvas. I got it to work ... well, sort of. The problem is I can drag it only by clicking on the left top corner of the image and nowhere else. Besides, the dragging is not very smooth. How can I make it better? I am using wxRuby 0.6.0 on Win XP (Home) and

Dear R-users, I am trying to produce trellis (png, or jpeg) graphs with transparent background, but I cannot manage to make that happen. I tried to play around with themes but to no avail. Any advise on the following example will be greatly appreciated: Thank you Sebastien #### library(lattice) df <- data.frame(a=rep(1:4,4), b=rep(1:4,4), c=rep(1:4,each=4)) settings <- standard.theme()
