Hi, First. If you should not do it like you write here. You will get an error loading the rda file. It is a binary format.
Error in load(dFile) : input has been corrupted, with LF replaced by CR Hence, you should specify mode="wb" for downloading binary formats. Try this code. file.remove("hres.rda") dFile <- paste(getwd(),"/hres.rda",sep="") if(!file.exists(dFile)) download.file(url ="http://www.molgen.mpg.de/~wolski/hres.rda", dest= dFile,mode="wb") load(dFile) hresd plot(hresd) In one think you are right, the X axis. But there is an ERROR. On my Machine (see previous mail) not the complete dendrogram is drawn. It just draws the first 100 leavs out of 380 when I run Second. Even if I increase the size of the window maximally the dendrogram is not plotted. And I checked it just again on a linux box. And it does not work there either. How the dendrogram should look like you can figure out looking at the following. hclustObj <- paste(getwd(),"/hress.rda",sep="") if(!file.exists(dFile)) download.file(url ="http://www.molgen.mpg.de/~wolski/hress.rda", dest= hclustObj ,mode="wb") load(dFile) hress plot(hress) hressd<-as.dendrogram(hress) plot(hressd) Third. I have expected this comment about if it is meaningfull or not. First for what I need it is it meaningfull. Second it is a valid dendrogram generated by as.dendrogram from a vaild hclust object. I do not need a plot routine which teaches me what she thinks is meaningfull or not. /E Martin Maechler wrote: >>>>>>"Eryk" == Eryk Wolski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>>>>> on Thu, 21 Oct 2004 13:41:29 +0200 (CEST) writes: >>>>>> >>>>>> > > Eryk> Hi, > > Eryk> hres <- hclust(smatr,method="single") > Eryk> hresd<-as.dendrogram(hres) > Eryk> as.dendrogram(hres) > Eryk> `dendrogram' with 2 branches and 380 members total, at height 2514.513 > Eryk> plot(hresd,leaflab="none") #<-error here. > >definitely no error here.. maybe your graphic window is too >small or otherwise unable to show all the leaf labels? > > Eryk> #the plotted dendrogram is incomplete.
