Hello,
I've encountered an interesting situation and can't seem to find an applicable 
solution. I've got a multivariate synthetic dataset I generated in order to 
explore various statistical techniques. In my dataset I vary three things, 
sample size, effect size, and the number of variables that are affected. As 
these are varied I've output my results into a three dimensional array. So for 
each possible combination, think xyz location, I have an output value. What I 
would like to do is to create a somewhat unique style of plot very similar to a 
triangular soil texture plot, excepting that at rather than dropping a point at 
a given coordinate, I have all possible coordinates on the grid, and I would 
like to overlay a color map in which combinations that yield high values shade 
towards one color, and low values another or some other such color scheme. Thus 
displaying under what conditions certain accuracies are achieved for the test.
I've explored both the soil texture plotting solutions in R, and as best I can 
with little background in image work the 3d plotting solutions offered by 
various packages. I haven't found anything that seems to be able to handle an 
array this way. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Hi William,
If you haven't looked at the triax.fill function in the plotrix package, that might be helpful. I'm not sure what resolution you want on the plot, but triax.fill will display colors down to a few pixels.
