The header to the function (which you can see by evaluating my.3dplot$points3d) is function (x, y = NULL, z = NULL, type = "p", ...) so you are setting x to seq(400,600,0.19), y to seq(600,400,0.295), etc. I think you probably want my.3dplot$points3d(x=c(400, 600, ...), y=c(600, 400, ...), z=c(0.19, 0.295, ...), ...) (where the ... is to be filled in by you.) > > and got the following error: > Error in seq.default(600, 400, 0.295) : wrong sign in 'by' argument > > So I just tried to add the first point using the following code: > >>my.3dplot$points3d(seq(400,600,0.19), col="blue", type="h", pch=16) > > and got the following error message: > > Error in xyz.coords(x, y, z) : 'x', 'y' and 'z' lengths differ. > > Does anyone know how I can use this function in the scatterplot3d package? try my.3dplot$points3d(x=400, y=600, z=0.19, col="blue", type="h", pch=16) Duncan Murdoch ______________________________________________ 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.
