Hello all: Thanks to all your earlier help, I'm now using spplot to generate a map of about 400 polygons representing about 40 different towns. In addition to being able to color the polygons, I would like to label the plots with a number or the town name.
Being near the water, there are lots of islands, so each town is represented by a bunch of polygons. How do I select only one to be labeled, and is there a convention for which one would be the best to use? I see the labpt slot, in my SpatialPolygonsDataFrame object, but I don't see a mostAppropriateLabpt or primaryLabpt or anything like that. In addition to this, I get no errors when I follow the examples at http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/gallery/ , but I see no labels, either. This is what I'm doing. Are the colors covering my labels? spplot(rep.map,zcol="vote02",at=breaks,col.regions=rg, layout=list(list("sp.text",getSpPPolygonsLabptSlots(rep.map)[25,],"HERE I AM"))) Many thanks, -tom -- -------------------------------------------------------- Check out "Ten Things You Don't Know About Rhode Island" http://whatcheer.net http://sgouros.com _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
