Hi, You'll probably find that there are two parts to your query:
1- import a bitmap into R, for this I'd suggest the wiki page, http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:graphics-misc:display-images 2- place the image (now some sort of matrix of colour points) at different locations on a graph. I don't know any function to do this (*) (but there may be some listed in the above webpage). Another option is to convert the bitmap to vector graphics using an external tool, then use the grImport package to create a grob (graphical object) that you can then place in any Grid-based plot (there is an example with lattice). HTH, baptiste (*) this may look like a starting point: http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:graphics-grid:displaybitmap 2009/10/14 Tal Galili <tal.gal...@gmail.com>: > Hello dear R-help group. > > I wish to plot a scatter plot using icons (or images) instead of points. > Is it possible? and how so? > > Thanks, > Tal > > > > > > > ---------------------------------------------- > > > My contact information: > Tal Galili > E-mail: tal.gal...@gmail.com > Phone number: 972-52-7275845 > FaceBook: Tal Galili > My Blogs: > http://www.talgalili.com (Web and general, Hebrew) > http://www.biostatistics.co.il (Statistics, Hebrew) > http://www.r-statistics.com/ (Statistics,R, English) > > [[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. > ______________________________________________ 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.
