similar to: Save rgl plot3d Graph as Image

Hello, I have created a 3d scatter plot using plot3d. Is it possible to export the resulting graph so that it can be placed in a pdf, powerpoint, or something of the sort and still be able to rotate it? Thanks [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear r-helpers, Can one save a dynamic graphic produced by rgl, e.g.: open3d(); x <- sort(rnorm(1000)); y <- rnorm(1000); z <- rnorm(1000) + atan2(x,y); plot3d(x, y, z, col=rainbow(1000), size=2) as a dynamic figure that can be embedded in a pdf? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400

Hi Duncan, I've just read the help for the plot3d function you've written and tried out the example code given at the bottom of the page. I then modified the function by adding an aspect ratio of 0.1 and ran it again, which crashed my R. I am using 2.12.2 on Windows, if that tells you anything. Best wishes, Roman

Hello, I am basically using a script that is designed to first create an rgl 3d scatter plot followed by a barplot on the same data. After this is done, the program is to first save the barplot as a .tiff file then to save the rgl 3d graph as a .png file. Once this is done, it is to repeat this 3d plot and barplot combo with saving 49 more times. The plotting script excerpt will be posted at the

Hi, I am looking for a R package to draw 3d plot. But not in a static way like scatterplot3d or stuff like that. I would like to make rotate the plot, to zoom/unzoom etc..., actually to render the graph 'dynamic'... (for the biologist and bioinformatician, a R package which permitts to reproduce what pdb viewer does). Does a Way exist to do something like that in R ? Thanks,

I want to plot points with different colors to show different selections of points in a 3d plot. My problem is that if I plot a red point at a location where already a blue point was plotted, than the point is still blue. Is there a parameter or so which can be used to draw over a existing point? Example: > require(rgl) > open3d() > plot3d(a<-c(1,2,3,4,5),a,a,type="l",

I'm trying to use the rgl package on R-2.7.1 running on top of Ubuntu Hardy amd64. using open3d() and plot3d() I get a plot, but it is not interactive. Furthermore, changes to par3d("FOV"=my.new.value) do nothing. I suspect something is wrong with the rendering engine or interface to it. I do have an Nvidia driver installed and compiz works correctly on the desktop. I've

Hi all, > library(rgl) > plot3d(1,1,1) > snapshot3d("somefile.png") Error in rgl.snapshot(...) : pixmap save format not supported in this build Why does this no longer work? thanks, Remko > sessionInfo() R version 2.12.0 (2010-10-15) Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_Australia.1252 LC_CTYPE=English_Australia.1252 [3]

Dear all, I have a question about the plotting of the dynamical orbit by using rgl. My code is as follows: open3d() par3d(cex=2) bg3d("white") for(i in 1:out.length){ ind<-which plot3d(x[1:i],y[1:i],out[,"z"][1:i],xlim=c(-10,10),ylim=c(-10,10),zlim=c(-10,10),col="red",cex=2) Sys.sleep(0.0001) } ,where x,y,out[,"z"] are the position of the object in

I'd like to use rgl.surface (or some other function if more appropriate) to create a horizontal and vertical transparent grey slice (plane) running through both the x and y origins and extending across the z axis, i.e. the 3-d equivalent of the normal 2-d coordinate axes we are all familiar with. The examples for rgl.surface are a bit more complex than what I need and I am having trouble

Buenas tardes. ¿Sabe alguno de vosotros cómo indicar la variable con la que identificar los puntos con plot3d? library(rgl) plot3d(Data$RTLML,Data$JD,Data$SB) Las muestras pertenecen a una de dos categorías, según la variable "Family", pero no sé cómo hacer que me las represente de diferente color. Gracias, Manuel . -- Dr Manuel

Dear Users: I have created several 3d scatter plots using the rgl package. I wish to save each of them so that I can later open them in R and view/rotate them. What is the command to do this? Also, do I need to save them each into individual files, or can I save them all together and then somehow toggle between them. Thanks very much. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear RGL experts, I haven't been able to add greek letters to my rgl plot3d. I have tried "expression" with no success. Here is the interested bit: > library(rgl) > cb <- cube3d() > plot3d(cb,xlab=expression(alpha),ylab="",zlab="",box=FALSE,alpha=0.5) The expression(alpha) appears as "alpha", rather than as a greek symbol. I suspect greek

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 I'm trying to make a 3d plot showing a point cloud, the corresponding data ellipse and the principal axes of the ellipse as vectors. library(rgl) data(trees) cov <- cov(trees) mu <- mean(trees) plot3d(trees, type="s", size=0.5, col="blue", cex=2) In this step, an extra box is added. I've tried using box=FALSE, but it has no effect. # how to avoid the

Dear List, I'm trying to draw vector in XYZ with rgl under use of a cylinder3d. Therefore I scale and rotate a basis-cylinder). However, somehow the rotation is wrong as verified by overplotting arrow3d(). Where is my mistake? library(heplots) library(rgl) # ... 2 vectors data=data.frame(row.names=c('X','Y','Z'), x1=c(2,1,5),y=c(4,3,2))

Hello R-users, I have downloaded and installed a binary version for Windows OS of ImageMagick (ImageMagick6.5.6-10-q16-windows-dll.exe), I have installed the rgl package and i've tried running the following example from ?movie3d() library(rgl) open3d() plot3d( cube3d(col="green") ) M <- par3d("userMatrix") play3d( par3dinterp( userMatrix=list(M,

Dear R Users, i' wondering, if there is any possibility to render interactive stereoscopic 3d plots in R and use the functionality of those new 3d displays (e.g. with poarisation technology) like this one: > http://shop.fujitsu.com/de/displays/display-p23t-6p-fpr-3d Does anyone know if there are developments toward this feature? Or perhaps someone know how to implement such a

Hi there, I've written a script for reading 3D simulation data into R, rendering it using RGL, and then saving the resulting plot using the snapshot3d() function. The results are fantastic! However, whenever RGL plots anything it automatically brings the viewing window into focus. Since I'm producing a large number of plots in a loop, my machine becomes almost unusable for the

Hi, I try to execute the seven lines of code below to plot a graph. But I am failing as the messages below show.
