Dear members, I wish to create many circles and split them into sectors then colour the sectors based on value attributed to the plot, then plot a colormap. I have thus far been able to create the polygons, create the colorbar and colour the sectors, but i know for a fact the colour isn't representative of the value inside the sectors. Any ideas how to adjust the function(s) so that the colour is representative of the value attributed to the sector?
## Get circle pointscircs <- function(radii, sectors=4) { radii <- sort(radii) rads <- seq(0, 2*pi, length=2*length(radii)*sectors) # sample at these radians do.call(rbind, lapply(radii, function(r) # points for drawing circles data.frame(X=r*cos(rads), Y=r*sin(rads), sector=rep(1:sectors, each=length(rads)/sectors), theta=rads, radius=r)))} ## Draw figuredrawCirc <- function(radii, sectors, hues=NULL, densities=NULL, ...) { polys <- circs(radii, sectors) if (missing(hues)) { colors <- colorRampPalette(c("green","yellow","red","blue"))(sectors*length(radii)) } else colors <- heat.colors(n=sectors*length(radii),alpha=hues) ind=0 plot(polys[,1:2], type="n" ,...) # blank plot for (i in seq_along(radii)) { # add polygons for (j in 1:sectors) { ind <- ind+1 color <- colors[ind] with(polys[polys$sector==j,], if (i == 1) { polygon(x=c(0, X[radius==radii[i]], 0), y=c(0, Y[radius==radii[i]], 0), col=color, density=densities[ind]) } else polygon(x=c(X[radius==radii[i-1]], rev(X[radius==radii[i]])), y=c(Y[radius==radii[i-1]], rev(Y[radius==radii[i]])), col=color, density=densities[ind])) } } cols<-colorRampPalette(c("blue","red","yellow","green"))(sectors*length(radii)) vert! ical.image.legend(col=cols, zlim=range(c(1,0)))} drawCirc(radii=1:50, sectors=24, main="Ratio by Colors") Please note, that the hues allows for the transparency to take into account the values of the sectors but i want the colours to be fully opaque not transparent. As this causes issues with the colorbar on the right hand side. Thank you in advance for any suggestion. bryar [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
