Hi all, I am considering writing a 3D visualisation package for R. Purposes: - Visualise 3 dimension data - Manipulate the data or series or any other object with the mouse as in any 3D software (3D Studio Max, Lightwave...) - Eventually display more than just 3D objects. Justification: - It's always interesting to plot data before performing any analysis - Manipulating (rotating,

Doing a visual graphic and trying to make it "pretty" Here's simple chart to play with: library(rgl) dotframe<-data.frame(x=c(0,7,0,0,-7,0),y=c(0,0,7,0,0,-7),z=c(7,0,0,-7,0,0)) dotframe plot3d(dotframe$x,dotframe$y,dotframe$z, radius=3, type='s',col=c('red','green','blue','purple','orange','gray'), axes=FALSE, box=FALSE,

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 :

Hi, I am applying the following code to map pca loadings onto a 3d grid, my problem is this - the output only plots the spheres in the requested color (in this case "red") for the first argument. The sphere from the second argument appear as flat dark circles. Also the text3d() command only seems to work for a couple of the positions, with no text added in most cases. Could anyone offer

Dear all, I have a quiet simple problem (shared by a collegue) but no solution at yet. The arguments I use in bbox3d or text3d do not have any effect on the graph. I need to use 'cex' and 'zlim' but It does not work. Maybe my problem could appear trivial but I have spent a lot of time on that. If you have a solution, please let me know! stephane [[alternative HTML version

Dear all, I have tried to plot a triangular matrix with the function persp3d(rgl). for example z=rbind(c(1,NA,NA,NA),c(5,3,NA,NA),c(4,2,9,NA),c(8,6,5,11)) x=1:4 y=1:4 persp3d(x,y,z,color="gray") The two extreme points are not plotted (value=1 and value=10). It seems because the half of the matrix have 'NA' and perp3d need planar quadrilateral face. So I decided to use the

I want to print characters from the symbol font (or perhaps even Wingdings) in an rgl 3d plot, but I am having no luck. So, what do I have to do in order to get this snippet to print out a character from the symbol font? library(rgl) open3d() text3d(1,1,1,"a",adj=c(0.5,0.5),cex=10,family="symbol",font=1) I am on Windows XP with R 2.9.1.

I think it is an easy question but i haven´t found a solution since I am r beginner. I did this plot3d(PCoA, type="p", col=rainbow(1000),size=5) text3d(PCoA, text=Nam) How can I save it including the labels to a jpg-file? Thanks in advance.

Hi, i was wondering if there is a way to annotate rgl plot, after searching i haven't found anything suitable. I saw function text3d but was thinking more about text on the margin, so not interactive.

Hello I've created a 3d scatterplot, and had no problems labeling the points. However, I've been really struggling to change the color of the points based on a factor (see 'group' below). Is such a thing possible? My data look like this: food group x y z apple fruit 0.216 -0.112 -0.893 orange fruit 0.814 0.097 0.460 broccoli veg -0.239 0.240 -0.425 banana

Brian, I just tried your version rgl_0.70-2 with R-2.5.0 on FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT (i386) and it works! Thank you very much for this competently and very fast help. Next I will try if it compiles on amd64, too ...

Dear useRs, I'm trying to simply fill in the area under a curve using RGL. Here' the set up: x <- c(0.75,75.75,150.75,225.75,300.75,375.75,450.75,525.75,600.75,675.75, 0.5,50.5,100.5,150.5,200.5,250.5,300.5,350.5,400.5,450.5, 0.25,25.25,50.25,75.25,100.25,125.25,150.25,175.25,200.25,225.25) y <- c(0.05,4.91,9.78,14.64,19.51,24.38,29.24,34.11,38.97,43.84,

Hello I was wondering if anyone has been able to change the pch value for points in 3dplot()? I am able to change point colors just not symbol types. I have included a portion of my code below. I realize this won't work outside of my script, but thought, maybe there is something obvious that I am doing wrong. Also is it possible to utilize the interactive feature of 3dplot in a

Dears, I've been learning biplot (Gabriel, 1971) and I found the function 'biplot', inside of the package 'stats', useful but, a bit limited. So, I'm thinking to start a colaborative package to enhance this methods to other multivariate methods. In this way, I would like to start it, making public a new function (biplot.pca, still in development, but running) that make

hello, I wish to create some 3d scatter diagrams visualising different grouped data set by a given field in the database. I tried the scatterplot3d package, as well as the plot3d and scatter3d functions (both within the rgl resp. Rcmdr package). My first question is, whether is it possibe to group data in the scatterplot3d and plot3d, because I did not succeed to use the groups = ...

Hej, When plotting triangles with rgl.triangles and setting the axes afterwards with decorate3d(aspect=TRUE), the axes get the color used for the last triangle plotted. Example: rgl.triangles(c(1,2,3),c(1,2,5),c(1,3,2),col="#55FF55") decorate3d(aspect=TRUE) Using decorate3d(aspect=TRUE,col="#000000") or decorate3d(aspect=TRUE,color="#000000") does not help,

Dear R-helpers, an rgl-ers in particular, what is the easiest way to plot a section of a plane in 3D, that is given by the xyz coordinates of the outline? Suppose I have a polygon - which I know for sure is a set of coordinates on the same plane. One method I found is to use surf.tri from the geometry package, and then plot the triangles with rgl.triangles. This method is not perfect though,

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

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, in a three dimensional coordinate system, I'd like to find all my experimental data points that fall within an ellipsoid around a fixed coordinate. The fixed point is defined by (x.coord.point, y.coord.point, z.coord.point). The coordinates of the ellipsoid are given by the three vectors x,y,z. In a previous version of my code, I simply used a box instead of an ellipsoid to sort
