Hello, I am attempting to use smoothScatter to plot a heatmap of locations of events in an x-y axis. When I plot the heatmap without passing xlim and ylim parameters, it fills the plot area but the perspective is a bit skewed. I would like to standardize these plots to a uniform window size that does not depend on the range of values in the dataframe. However, when I resize the plot using xlim or ylim, there is a light blue background that surrounds the immediate area of the data (correspnding to the range of the points listed in the dataframe), surrounded by extra white space for the new xlim and ylim values I have added. Some of the rings around the datapoints are also cut off at the margins.
I would like to stop the plot from being cut off, and want this light blue "range" to extend throughout the entire area of the resized plot. I have attempted to add NAs, but it has no effect on expanding this light blue plot area. Code is below. #### xyz is a dataframe containing two columns with corresponding x and y values library(geneplotter) library(RColorBrewer) layout(matrix(1:1, ncol=2, byrow=TRUE)) smoothScatter(xyz, nrpoints=0, xlim=c(-3,3), ylim=c(0,5),colramp=colorRampPalette(c("#f8f8ff", "white", "#736AFF", "cyan", "yellow", "#F87431", "#FF7F00", "red", "#7E2217"))) ###END Thanks very much for any help, Jason [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
