similar to: plotrix::thigmophobe could usefully coerce to numeric...

hi, I am trying to label data points within a scatter plot using thigmophobe. While the data set consists of about 3000 points I only would like to label a subset of these points. I read the x and y coordinates in from a txt file and define them as: MLPM1<-log2(Ratio.M.L.G2.PM) HLG2<-log2(Ratio.H.L..G2.PM) the names and a corresponding ID are read in from the same txt file as:

Sorry for posting this twice, but I still have not solved this problem and am hoping for some assistance. I am attempting to write a function that is flexible enough to respond to the user providing a formula (with a data= argument) or not (similar to plot(x,y) versus plot(y~x,data=data)). I have found a method to work with this in a simple case but am having trouble determining how to

Dear R community members, I am very new to R, so I hope I didn´t oversee the answer to my question in the manuals and faqs. I am trying to create a histogram containing several data sets (I would like to see how the dependent variable is distributed for the different groups). This should be possible using the function multhist contained in the plotrix package. (I am using R 2.2.1, in windows XP).

Hi all, I'm having problems installing plotrix. I tried installing it through install.packages, and from the unix command line, but each time it seems to stall when it is installing the help indices. has anyone had this same problem, is this package still maintained ? any help? thanks > install.packages("plotrix") > > I also tried using the source package > R CMD

I am trying to draw a polar plot, which is easy enough to do in the plotrix package through the polar.plot function. However I would like to change the origin of the length vector. For instance all my length values are between 75 and 85, so instead of having the origin as 0 (the default) I'd like it to be, say, 50. Is there any way do to this in the polar.plot function, or if not is there an

Hello all- I would like to orient my polar.plot (from package plotrix) so that the circular scale runs clockwise and the origin (ie. 0 degrees) starts at the top of the plot. The defaults of running the scale counter-clockwise and beginning with 90 degrees at the top of the graph seems counter-intuitive to me. I'm using R 2.5.0, and plotrix version 2.2-4. Many thanks, Tim

Hey, I hope someone is able to help. I've created a graph using kiteChart (in the plotrix package) but need to know how to perform some basic text alterations to the graph. I would like to re-orientate the text on the y-axis from vertical to horizontal. I understand that the argument normally for this is las=1. However, this does not seem to work. Perhaps kitechart uses an alternative

Hello, I am trying to use cluster.overplot from package plotrix and I get an error message when I add the "away" parameter: require(plotrix) distance <- read.table("distance.txt") cmd <- cmdscale(distance) cp <- cluster.overplot(cmd, away=2) Error in if (sum(overplots) > 1) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed If I don't use "away",

Hi folks, Both plotrix and prettyR have been updated. plotrix now has the "Matlab" style dotplot that was requested not long ago on the list, provided by that intrepid duo, Barry Rowlingson and Rolf Turner. Mike Cheetham has contributed an implementation of the Piper diagram, also in response to a request. prettyR has finally learned how to display SPSS value labels in the xtab and

I am attempting to create a plot with intervals "stretched" in the x-direction using plotCI() in the plotrix package. The same data provides an appropriate set of intervals when "stretched" in the y-direction but I only get a lower interval when "stretched" in the x-direction. The data are as follows mns <-

Here are the error messages: > install.packages('plotrix') Warning in install.packages("plotrix") : argument 'lib' is missing: using '/Users/dbae/Library/R/library' --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- Error in .install.macbinary(pkgs = pkgs, lib = lib, contriburl = contriburl, : unable to create temporary directory

Hi Andre, This sounds to me like a locale problem. Installation of a package is performed by functions like install.packages and as long as the package has passed CRAN checks, the contents shouldn't matter. I've copied this to the list as I'm sure that one of the experts in this area will have an answer. Jim On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 5:48 AM, Hillers Andr? <hillers at

Hi Nicole, plotrix is intended to be modular, that is, it builds plots step by step. This makes it easier to understand code that you haven't written or haven't seen for a while. Here is an example showing how to change the font using par(): library(plotrix) plot(0,type="n",xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(-1,0)) par(font=3) legendg(0.115,-0.055,legend=c("Pan

Dear All, Please see the code snippet at the end of the email. I am using the color2D.matplot in Plotrix to plot a matrix. It works great, but there are a few things I cannot figure out (1) the value of cex.axis in the code snippet does not seem to affect the final pdf at all (at least on my system, Ubuntu 9.10, plotrix and Cairo installed from cran). How do I specify the size of the axis ticks

Dear R Users, Greetings! I am confused with an error message related to "plotrix" library in the newer versions of R. I used to run an R script without fail in the earlier versions (R 2.8.1) of R; but the same script is now throwing up an error message in the newer versions (Now I have R 2.13.0 & R 2.14.0). Herewith I am furnishing the same code for your perusal. It would

Hi. I have a question about the taylor.diagram() in plotrix package. How can I control the label "correlation"? In the embedded figure you can see the label "correlation" is too close to the ticks. How can I move it and make it larger? Another problem is the labels "0.95" and "0.99" are too close to the plotting area. I do not find any method to control

Dear All, I am using the plotrix library to plot some matrices. I have a problem: some of my data are outliers, hence using a linear color scale does not work very well (you would see too many cells having a similar, indistinguishable color). See the code snipped at the end of the email. Plotting the logarithm of the data gets the job done, but my problem is that I would like to write in every

hi all - i'm having some difficulty figuring out how to convert between "user units" (which i can't find a definition for in the plotrix package) and either (a) device units (e.g. inches with PDFs) or (b) user coordinates along any particular axis. as an example, suppose i set up a PDF device with inches, the device has both outer and inner magins, and the plot region has

I've run across what I think is a small bug in the plotrix package. I've tried to contact the maintainer (Jim Lemon) directly but email is returned 'undeliverable' at the provided address. What is the best method to push a patch to a CRAN package in this case? Thank you, Jesse

Hi all, I'm announcing this version of plotrix because I have made a couple of changes that will affect users. Although the function that used to be known as hierobarp is fairly new, there may be some users who are surprised when they find that it has changed its name to barNest. I will probably rename the two functions hierobarp.svymean and hierobarp.svyprop in the next version to
