Dear list, I have encountered a problem with the movie3d function in the rgl library where the output movie (gif) or the individual frames (png) are completely black. I have looked on the internet and found a thread titled "movie3d function in the rgl package" posted to the R-help mailing list in 2008 by Dan McGlinn. Apparently the problem was not solved. I could not find a solution anywhere on the internet and am hoping someone on this list will be able to help me.
After I plot a 3D scatter plot using plot3d, I use this command to output a gif movie: movie3d(spin3d(axis=c(0,0,1), rpm=4), duration=15, movie="3D-SPIN", convert=TRUE, clean=TRUE, verbose=TRUE, type="gif") and this command to output individual png files: movie3d(spin3d(axis=c(0,0,1), rpm=4), duration=15, movie="3D-SPIN", convert=FALSE, clean=FALSE, verbose=TRUE) Does anyone know what the problem may be and how it can be solved? I am using Windows7 and have ImageMagick installed properly (as far as I can tell)... best regards, Manabu -- Manabu Sakamoto, PhD School of Earth Sciences University of Bristol manabu.sakam...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
