similar to: grid.polygon() + color gradient

Hi, I want to produce two parallel rotated strips with color gradient. So far, the sample strip is something produced by this: pushViewport(viewport(x = unit(0.638, "npc"), y =unit(0.386, "npc"), width=.62, height=0.006, angle=137.2)) grid.rect(y=100:1/100, just="top", gp=gpar(col=NA, fill=colorRampPalette(c("lightgray",

Dear list, Following a recent enquiry, I've been playing with the idea of creating a colour gradient for a polygon, using the Grid package. The idea is to draw a number of stripes of different colours, using the grid.clip function. Below is my current attempt at this, library(grid) rotate.polygon <- function(g, angle=0){ # utility function, works fine matR <- matrix(c(cos(angle),

Hi all,I would like to draw a simple circle where the color gradient follows the rule color = 1/(r^2) where r is the distance from the circle. I would also like to add a color bar with values going from -40 to -110 (and associate those with the color gradient that fills the circle). So far I experiemented with draw circle

Hi, I'm trying to get a color-gradient triangle out of a large plot. Wonder can subplot() generate a triangle? So far, I'm only getting rectangles. Great appreciation for any reply!! Kexin

Hi, Is it possible to diagonally fill a rectangle with a color gradient? I noticed that the gradient.rect of plotrix could fill a rect either up and down or from side to side. I am looking for something similar but fills diagonally instead, e.g., from the upper left corner to the bottom right. Does anyone know how to do it in R? Thanks, -- Tom [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

There appears to be a bug in the R xfig() driver. When I run a simple example, eg > data(InsectSprays) > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray") the boxplot is fine. Doing the same thing after > xfig(file='test.fig') and then opening in Xfig (ver3.2 patchlevel 2) on my Linux box produces boxplots where the boxes, although correctly shaded in,

Hi, I'd like to fill an existing svg (or png) map with gradient colors. In detail: The file http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Karte_%C3%96sterreich_Bundesl%C3%A4nder.svg should be filled with the population density data from this table: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%96sterreich#Verwaltungsgliederung choosing the right color saturation (or whatever). The final result should be something

Dear list, This might be a topic for r-devel but i may be missing something obvious. I don't understand the rationale in the absolute sizes of the point symbols, and I couldn't find it documented. The example below uses Grid to check the size of the symbols against a square of 10mm x 10mm. > checkOneSymbol <- function(pch=0){ > gTree(children=gList( >

What is the simplest (namely: minimum number of libraries or conflicts) way to fill a polygon with a pattern? For example, suppose I have (in a graphic file, like a jpeg) the drawing of an "X". Then I fill a polygon (like a triangle) with this pattern, and get something like: X XXX XXXXX XXXXXXX (where the border "X"s could be truncated). I searched the rimage

I'm working on a package to produce graphic displays of 2- and 3-way tables and need some help/advice on how to simplify the specification of a complex argument that gives the drawing details for each cell of the table. Prototypes of two functions, 'tableplot' and 'cellgram' are given below. The essential idea is that for a given table ('values'), the cells can be be

Hi, I'm looking the best way to fill irregular polygons with patterns, Something like the function grid.pattern do, but my case is with irregular polygons. Whit this script I can get it, but I'm looking for an "elegant" solution.. library(grid) grid.polygon(x=c(0.2, 0.8, 0.6, 0.6, 0.8, 0.2), y=c(0.2, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7,0.7), gp=gpar(fill="grey",

Dear list: I encountered some problems using the function point.in.polygon() of the sp package, when trying to determine whether some points lye inside, outside, on the border or on a vertice of a polygon. I have a list of point I know should lye right on the border of a polygon, but some of them are not classified as such by point.in.polygon() (see the example code below). To make a long story

When I use grid.rect to print a multi-coloured grid, it is incredibly slow compared to a single colour grid, or even a two colour grid. I've set out some simplified examples below. This is something I run literally thousands of times a day, so I would greatly appreciate any hints on how I might improve the speed??? library(grid) pushViewport(viewport( width = unit(100,

Hi all, Is there a way to fill a rectangle or polygon with a color and/or transparency gradient? This would be extremely useful for me in terms of adding some additional information to some plots I'm making, especially if I could define the gradient on my own by putting functions into rgb something like rgb( r=f(x,y), g=f(x,y), b=f(x,y), alpha=f(x,y) ). Not so important whether the

I am looking for examples of code that demonstrates the fine tuning of the strip panels in lattice graphics and uses plotmath characters. The code for the graphic is as follows: xyplot(lagy ~ n | rho1 * rho2, data= data, layout=c(2,6), span = 1, xlab = "Sample Size", ylab = "Bias in the Coefficient for the Lag of X", type = "o") rho1 is a four level factor

Hi list. I would like to know how do I insert a North arrow, stored as a png file in my computer, in a map? I found lots of post asking similar things, one of them mentioned the pixmap package. The map was done using map() and shapefiles (the code is below). I’m using the pixmap () and addlogo() functions. Well I can import the png with pixmap() function (I guess, once there’s no error message),

Hello all, I am trying to use computer modern fonts in my r grahics. I tried to do, as described here: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/CMR.html but unfortunately, it does not work. First of all I downloaded the cm-lgc package and the AFM and PFB-files from the page and put them in my R working directory, so far, so good. Then I tried to run the following code: > sn <-

Hi, I have an array of 2d node locations and an array triangles, and would like to plot something like a image or persp. An example of doing it with rgl is: library(ncdf) library(rgl) # wget http://www.maplepark.com/~drf5n/extras/teapot.nc teapot<-open.ncdf("teapot.nc") z<-get.var.ncdf(teapot,"tris") l<-get.var.ncdf(teapot,"locations")
