[R] Interactive map graphics.
I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSXNfZESR5I and there is a section where Hadley Wickham showed demonstrated a county map of the US that was interactive. This is exactly what I would like. I have downloaded ggplot2 but still failed to find out how to even read in and plot something like a US map let alone add the kind of interactivity that was shown in this demo. Anyone else succeed at interacting with a plot of the US like this? Thank you.

Re: [R] Interactive map graphics.
Hi Kevin, I haven't watched through the video yet, but I guess It's not ggplot2, just like David pointed out, it's actually using a different graphic engine, implemented in packages qtbase/qtpaint, which are hosted on Biocondcutor, to install them, please run source(http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R;) biocLite(c(qtbase, qtpaint)) Another project in development you probably are interested in trying for same kind of qt-based interactive graphics called cranvas https://github.com/ggobi/cranvas HTH Tengfei On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 12:57 PM, David Winsemius dwinsem...@comcast.netwrote: On Jan 24, 2012, at 1:15 PM, Kevin Burton wrote: I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?**v=iSXNfZESR5Ihttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSXNfZESR5I and there is a section where Hadley Wickham showed demonstrated a county map of the US that was interactive.

Re: [R] Interactive map graphics.
I am stuck with R 2.14.0 for now because the COM interface that I am using (RandFriends) is still on 2.14.0. When I try to install this package (via the script) I get: packages 'qtbase', 'qtpaint' are not available (for R version 2.14.0) Is there an alternate way to install these packages?

Re: [R] Interactive map graphics.
If you are using Windows, I'm afraid you have to give up because there are no Windows binaries for these packages yet. If you are under Linux or Mac, you can follow the instructions in https://github.com/ggobi/cranvas/wiki Regards, Yihui -- Yihui Xie xieyi...@gmail.com Phone: 515-294-2465 Web: http://yihui.name Department of Statistics, Iowa State University 2215 Snedecor Hall, Ames, IA On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 4:10 PM, Kevin Burton rkevinbur...@charter.net wrote: I am stuck with R 2.14.0 for now because the COM interface that I am using (RandFriends) is still on 2.14.0.

Re: [R] Interactive map graphics.
Now I install R 2.14.1 and I get: packages 'qtbase', 'qtpaint' are not available (for R version 2.14.1) Are you saying that the windows binaries are not available for *any* version of R?

Re: [R] Interactive map graphics.
Exactly. It is very complicated to get them to run under Windows. Hopefully in the future, there will be Windows versions, but I guess this will not happen in the very near future.
