Hi Folks, I'm trying to get rgl.Sweave to produce plots with transparency. However, it just seems to produce opaque plots when pdf is the output type. Perhaps this is a known issue? I'll just use .png in the meantime, but wanted to see about this, as I didn't see it in the documentation (though it's possible I missed it). Thanks, Allie \documentclass{article} \title {rgl

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

Hi, Here is the function DrawDensity3D in package VecStatGraphs3D. My question is: if we use more layers than one, could we change the function in a way that in the final plot only the outmost layer is drawn (the inner layers omitted)? Best regards, Atte Tenkanen function (vectors, Div = 40, Layers = 3, DrawAxes = FALSE) { open3d(windowRect = c(100, 100, 800, 800))

Hi, I don't know much about the RGL package, and I have read the documentation and tried some parameters, with no luck... I would like to generate a movie from a 3D object (code below), where the vortex A is closer to the observer, and then the object rotates and the B vortex gets closer. I would like to capture this movie to a file. By the way, I am not being able to insert unicode text

Dears, I've been learning biplot (Gabriel, 1971) and I found the function 'biplot', inside of the package 'stats', useful but, a bit limited. So, I'm thinking to start a colaborative package to enhance this methods to other multivariate methods. In this way, I would like to start it, making public a new function (biplot.pca, still in development, but running) that make

Hello I have a problem on keeping the format when I export a matrix file with the write.table() function. When I import the data volcano from rgl package it looks like this in R: > data[1:5,] [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] [1,] 100 100 101 101 101 101 101 100 100 100 101 101 102 102 [2,] 101 101 102 102 102 102 102

I have a general style question about R coding. Suppose I'm writing a function (foo1) that calls other functions (foo2, foo3, ...) which have complicated argument lists (e.g. optim(), plot()), _and_ I may be calling several different functions in the body of foo1. Since foo2 and foo3 have different sets of arguments, I can't just use "..." ; I did write some code a while ago

Doing a visual graphic and trying to make it "pretty" Here's simple chart to play with: library(rgl) dotframe<-data.frame(x=c(0,7,0,0,-7,0),y=c(0,0,7,0,0,-7),z=c(7,0,0,-7,0,0)) dotframe plot3d(dotframe$x,dotframe$y,dotframe$z, radius=3, type='s',col=c('red','green','blue','purple','orange','gray'), axes=FALSE, box=FALSE,

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 :

Hi, I'm trying to make sense of the image3d plots in misc3d. Unfortunately I can't find any authors on the help pages of the function to e-mail directly. In the following toy example, I'm puzzled as to why (1) the positions of the image plot on the axes include negative values when I think I've specified all to be 1:3 and (2) the logic that needs to be adhered to in order to

Dear all, I have a quiet simple problem (shared by a collegue) but no solution at yet. The arguments I use in bbox3d or text3d do not have any effect on the graph. I need to use 'cex' and 'zlim' but It does not work. Maybe my problem could appear trivial but I have spent a lot of time on that. If you have a solution, please let me know! stephane [[alternative HTML version

Hi everyone, I want to plot a 3D interpolation of the concentration of aquatic organisms. My goal would be to have the result represented as clouds with a density proportional to the abundance of organisms, so that I could fly (well, swim actually ;) ) through the scene and see the patches here and there. Basically, I want to do something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27mo_Y-aU-c but

Hi There, I'm attempting to plot 10 values on a three-dimensional PCA with text labels next to each point. While i have no trouble doing this on 2D plots using the 'text' or 'textxy' function, I cannot find a function to do this on a 3D plot. I am using princomp for my PCA: >PCA<-princomp(eucdata, cor=TRUE) >PCA$scores [,1:3] # the three principal components i

Dear list I'm having trouble with inverting color gradation. As seen in the "rgl" example, library(rgl) example(rgl.surface) I understand that I can assign colors to heights for each point. col <- colorlut[ y-ylim[1]+1 ] # assign colors to heights for each point However, I am now trying to assign inverted colors. (top colored green, and bottom colored gray). Is there any

Hello, I very much enjoy rgl! But when converting the screen output to pdf using rgl.postscript I have encountered three problems: (1) I don't seem to have control over font sizes and point sizes (of added points) in the pdf output. I tried cex from "plot" but that does not have an effect. Initially I got some plots where fonts and especially points were far too small. But now

I want to print characters from the symbol font (or perhaps even Wingdings) in an rgl 3d plot, but I am having no luck. So, what do I have to do in order to get this snippet to print out a character from the symbol font? library(rgl) open3d() text3d(1,1,1,"a",adj=c(0.5,0.5),cex=10,family="symbol",font=1) I am on Windows XP with R 2.9.1.

I think it is an easy question but i haven´t found a solution since I am r beginner. I did this plot3d(PCoA, type="p", col=rainbow(1000),size=5) text3d(PCoA, text=Nam) How can I save it including the labels to a jpg-file? Thanks in advance.

Hi, i was wondering if there is a way to annotate rgl plot, after searching i haven't found anything suitable. I saw function text3d but was thinking more about text on the margin, so not interactive.

Hello I've created a 3d scatterplot, and had no problems labeling the points. However, I've been really struggling to change the color of the points based on a factor (see 'group' below). Is such a thing possible? My data look like this: food group x y z apple fruit 0.216 -0.112 -0.893 orange fruit 0.814 0.097 0.460 broccoli veg -0.239 0.240 -0.425 banana

Dear all, I've been learning biplot (Gabriel, 1971) and some days ago I sent for this list a procedural function with invitation for a collaborative package. Jari Oksanen made some suggestions and I agree with all. So, I reworked the function under the object-oriented programming (OOP/S3). I think it is now a good frame for more resources. Below it is the function and a small script to
