similar to: help with "persp" function

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 :

Thank you for your replies so far. Sorry for bothering you again, but I'm still not able to get what I need as I don't understand all parts of the replies (just using R for easy things....). Is there a code for plane3d() like some of you sent me for points3d()? I was not able to get that out of the scatterplot3d package... What I can do is to get the x,y and z-range for the xlim,ylim and

someone sent in a question earlier about doing something in 3D so i took a stab at it purely for educational purposes ( i'm not even sure that I understood the question actually ). Unfortunately, persp gives me an error that I don't understand because it says "object y not found". I'm sending y in as a parameter to persp similar to what ?persp shows in one of oits examples

Hello folks, i'm a R beginner and i want to put in a same plot both contour lines and persp plot. For example, fn<-function(x,y){sin(x)+2*y} #this looks like a corrugated tin roof x<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of x values to sample y<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of y values to sample z<-outer(x,y,FUN=fn) #applies the funct. across the combos of x

I have this data set that both x & y are ordered vectors of length 600 & 700 respectively; z is a 600 by 700 matrix whose entry z[i,j] is either a missing value (indicated by 'NaN') or a real number between 0 and 1. The contour function contour(x,y,z) gives me a blank picture. I guess the reason is that most of z-entries are missing, only less than 1% are non missing.

Hello R-sters, I'm trying to add several lines to a response surface that I've plotted using persp(). I've tried lines() using the "trans3d" function but I've been unsuccessful in getting it to work (R v2.0.1). Essentially, I'm trying to highlight one or more of the surface wireframe lines in a bolder (or different) color. Any tips from those of you who have some

Hi, I am trying to specify four ticks (at 0,1,2,3 for the y axis) in a persp plot but the defaults overrule my specification and I obtain seven of them. Is it possible to gain full control over them in such a plot? Here is my code: matlines=matrix(c(1:7,3:9,3:9,2:8),nrow=7,ncol=4)

I am having some trouble getting the persp() package to change the x and y axis on a 3d plot. It defaults to the [0,1] interval and when I try to change it I get errors. Example: This works: ------------ D <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) M <- c(11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20) DM <- cbind(D,M) persp(DM, theta = 40, phi = 30, expand = 0.5, col = "lightblue", ltheta = 120,

Dear R Community: Recently, I have managed to plot some really useful graphs of my research data using persp(). I have even figured out how to overplot rectangular regions (corresponding to submatrices) with a different color. This is accomplished by using par(new=T). I am now searching for a way to "highlight" a set of (possibly non-contiguous) facets with a specific color,

Hello, I have a problem in drawing a 3d graphic. I simplified the program to show you the problem. I have a text file with hundreds of entries in 3 columns. I scaned these columns with matrix(scan). Then, I transformed some datas. Now I have the datas in h,x,y. I created a new matrix to use persp . But I got an error. The reason is probably the same length of x,y,z. But what can I do the draw

Hi all, I've got two persp plots with Identical X and Y's, and I'd like to plot them on the same graph, so that it is obvious where one plot is above the other. I can't find any mention of this anywhere. Do I need to use wireframe? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, -- Ian Bentley M.Sc.

Hello R-help! I am trying to draw series of lines in 3d, and I am not sure how to get the depth set up properly - lines that are in front of other lines appear to be behind and vice versa. I've been doing this by first generating an empty persp plot, then adding lines via the data into trans3d followed by lines (this is probably a bad approach, but it was the first one I could get working).

Hello, I would like to plot two superposed surfaces (original data, and smoothed models). Basically, I would like to create a usual persp plot with box, and then superpose a second surface (without box and axes) on the top plane of the box defined by the first graph. I don't know if it is clear :-( Is it possible to draw such a second surface in an existing persp plot in R? Another (related)

Hi the manpage for persp() has a wonderful section where a the trans3d () function is used with points() and lines() to add red dots and a green sinusoid to the Mexican hat surface. Does anyone have a way to tell what distance a point is from the eye/ camera? Take the following line: lines (trans3d(x, y=10, z= 6 + sin(x), pm = res), col = 3) Is there a function like trans3d() that returns

Dear WizaRds, I would like to create a 3d-plot with persp(). I sampled 17 points with xyz-coordinates (real-life example!), representing the peaks of the whole plane with "zero coordinates" x=3,y=3,z=3. My intention is to show which entries are above or below the "zero" level with persp() on a nicely created grid. I also tried scatterplot3d(), but, alas, I am unable

I am trying to graph two planes on the same graph using persp(). I can only get one plane to plot at a time. Can someone explain how I can graph two planes on the same graph using persp? I've looked throught the documentation, but cannot find any references to appending a persp plot. Thanks. Sincerely yours, Mark J. Lamias Statistical Consultant

R'istas: I am trying to plot a marginal distribution on the plane behind a persp() plot. My existing code is: library(MASS) X <- mvrnorm(1000,mu=c(0,0),Sigma=matrix(c(1,0,0,1),2)) X.kde <- kde2d(X[,1],X[,2],n=25) # X.kde is list: $x 1*n, $y 1*n, $z n*n persp(X.kde,phi=30,theta=60,xlab="x_b",ylab="x_a",zlab="f") ->res Any suggestions are very

I've created a perspective plot using 'persp' in the graphics package. I'd like to add a second plane of z values to the existing plot, but I cannot seem to do this using 'persp'. Is there an analogue to 'lines' or 'points' for perspectives? Corey. corey.bradshaw at cdu.edu.au

I have been making simple functions to display regressions in a new package called "rockchalk". For 3d illustrations, my functions use persp, and I've grown to like working with it. As an example of the kind of things I like to do, you might consult my lecture on multicollinearity, which is by far the most detailed illustration I've prepared.

Hello I am trying to draw a basic black and white map of two European countries. After searching some key words in google and reading many pages I arrived to the conclusion that persp() could be used to draw that map. I have prepared three small example files, which are supposed to be the files required for running that function. xvector is a vector with the longitudes yvector is a vector with
