Package plotAndPlayGTK provides a graphical user interface for R plots. Wrap it around your plot commands, like playwith(plot(mydata)). A window pops up with a Cairo plot device and a toolbar with buttons to interact with the plot. The default buttons allow you to add persistent labels to data points, zoom in and out and around, save the plot to a file, and so on. Furthermore, you can edit the plot call on the fly. There are buttons to work with multiple panels and pages of a Lattice plot. For multi-variate scatterplots ('splom' only) there is a "brush" function, and for 3D plots ('wireframe' / 'cloud' only) there is a simple zoom and rotate.
New buttons can also be defined; actually any GTK+ widget can be added to the toolbar. An example is given of a numeric input widget to choose a number of clusters to show. Note: code to generate the plot will need to be wrapped up into a single call with some standard arguments, and the interaction features do not work well with multiple-plot layouts in traditional graphics. As yet it does not work with grid-based plots other than Lattice (such as ggplot2), but button handlers could be written. This package is based on RGtk2, and so requires the GTK+ libraries. v0.8.42 is on CRAN. http://code.google.com/p/plotandplay-gtk/ -- Felix Andrews / 安福立 PhD candidate Integrated Catchment Assessment and Management Centre The Fenner School of Environment and Society The Australian National University (Building 48A), ACT 0200 Beijing Bag, Locked Bag 40, Kingston ACT 2604 http://www.neurofractal.org/felix/ xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 3358 543D AAC6 22C2 D336 80D9 360B 72DD 3E4C F5D8 _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-packages ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch 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.
