Hi, I'm looking for the way to make vector plot over a time line. This plot, similar to the "feather plot" in Matlab, is a line in which every thick (a time value) one vector is drawn with its length proportional to one variable (wind speed, for example) and its direction to another (wind direction, for example). Any ideas? Thanks, EKS -- ---------------------------- Eduardo

I'm trying to draw some error bars on a bar chart. I'm using code like this: thing <- c(3,3,3) se <- c(1,1,1) names(thing) <- c("A", "B", "C") barplot(thing, ylim=c(0,4)) arrows(c(1:3), thing-se, c(1:3), thing+se, code=3, angle=90,length=0.1) Using c(1:3) has 2 problems: 1. Obviously it is untidy, but using names(thing) doesn't work, and I

Hello All, I am attempting to use the feather.plot function from the plotrix package to graph current velocity data as I have speed and direction. I let "r" be the first 10 rows of current speed data and "theta" be the first 10 rows of directional data in radians. I had tried this with 10 measurements, but keep getting the following error message: >

I want to add a line that represents the relationship between x and y to a strip chart, I've tried the following functions: par(new=TRUE) points(x,y) lines(x,y) but nothing works, I get the strip chart but line doesn't show up. Here is my function: stripchart(hydfin$exp ~ hydfin$alt, vert = TRUE, pch = 1, method = "jitter", jit = 0.05, xlab = "Elevation", ylab =

I am new to R. I want to graph group data using a "Traditional Bar Chart with Standard Error Bar", like the kind shown here: http://samiam.colorado.edu/~mcclella/ftep/twoGroups/twoGroupGraphs.html Is there a simple way to do this? So far, I have only figured out how to plot the bars using barplot. testdata <- scan(, list(group=0,xbar=0,se=0)) 400 0.36038 0.02154 200 0.35927

Hey Everyone, I'm pretty new at R and wanted to try and make some graphs with dummy data before using it to analyze my own. I successfully made a bar graph and error bars, but I can't figure out how to align them properly (currently they are not centered on the bars and some of them aren't even close). Here's the code that I'm using: > marks <- sample(4:10, size=50,

Hi, I have the two vectors mean and sd of individual columns, but I am unsure how to generate bar charts with the standard deviation, even after looking the help of barplot and barplot.2. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I am working with a small (3 columns and 9 rows) data table, which contains 9 observations, their mean values and standard deviations (I extracted these data from a huge set and I cannot use the original data). I plotted means (y-axis) and the observations (x-axis) using the " plot() " command. However, I am not sure how to plot the standard deviation data on top of this. This

Hi R users, I would like to construct a sort hybrid vector/scatter plot. My data is in the following format: 3-column x,y,z data-frame in which every row is a separate data-point. The x & y columns are coordinates, and the z column contains orientation data (range 0-180 degrees, with East=0 & North=90). I need to set each x,y, point to have the alignment in z. Hence my

Hello forum! As the subject indicates, I am trying to make a barplot and would like my column names to be in bold. Is this possible in R without having to make my column names in mtext? Any help would be much appreciated. The code I am using is as follows. par(mar=c(3,8,2,2)) par(adj=.5) par(font=2) par(oma=c(3,3,3,3)) par(xpd=TRUE) Blot<-matrix(c(25.2995, 0.7625, 25.6135, 36.5770,

Dear list, I would like to plot arrows with different colors according to arrow length, and also (if possible) with head size proportional to arrow length. The idea is to make a quiver-like plot of matlab with wind speed data. So far, I´ve been able to use different colors, but I need to find a more efficient way to recode arrow length intervals into colors. On the contrary, I can't define

Hello Jim, Thanks again. I am getting the two-headed arrow but I cannot seem to get the coordinates right for the arrow to appear beneath the map. These coordinates puts the arrow on the left hand side. Thanks again!

Hi Milu, My fault here. As I don't have the data to make the map and try out my suggestions I mixed up the x and y coordinates. Try this: par(xpd=TRUE) arrows(-19.75966,53,33.60000,53,code=3) par(xpd=FALSE) Jim On Tue, Apr 12, 2016 at 10:11 PM, Miluji Sb <milujisb at gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Jim, > > Thanks again.

In a variety of graphic applications, I plot some data, together with arrows representing variables or linear transformations of variables as vectors in the same space, as in a biplot. In my applications, the scale of the arrows is arbitrary -- all that matters is relative length. I'd like to blow them up or shrink them to fit the available space in the plot. The origin is typically at

Dear Jim, Thanks again! I do want the arrows at the bottom (beneath the map). This is what I am doing: # Draw the map eps_europe <- mapCountryData(n, nameColumnToPlot="eps_score", mapTitle="EPS Score - Europe",colourPalette=colourPalette, catMethod="fixedWidth", missingCountryCol = "white", mapRegion="Europe", addLegend=FALSE) # ISO3 codes on

Hi Milu, There is a two-headed arrow on the image you sent, and it seems to be where you specified.

I have started using the circular package but it is not recognizing the function arrows.circular. I attempted to use the example provided in the circular manual. Here is the example code using the circular package: plot(rvonmises(10, circular(0), kappa=1)) arrows.circular(rvonmises(10, circular(0), kappa=1)) arrows.circular(rvonmises(10, circular(0), kappa=1), y=runif(10), col=2)

Hello everyone, I have successfully made an error bar graph using the points() command with the arrows() command to maually add on the standard errors. However, one slightly annoying feature of using this method is that the points dont line up exactly with the arrows (if you look carefully the points are never perfectly in the centre of the arrow), even when you move the arrows around in an

Hi, I would like to draw arrows in a classic 2D plot. Which package should I use? is there R base functions that do job? On google, I could not find any useful discussion about this topic, except a link to the function 'grid.arrows' of the grid package. My problem is I would like to draw arrows at the edge of circles drawn by the 'symbols' function. Maybe there is already a
