Is there a function for creating a box with rounded corners?
I can write one, but I thought I'd ask first.
Hi Spencer,
The tab.title function in plotrix has most of the code for this.
Hi, Jim:
Thanks for this. tab.title{plotrix} displays "the title of a
plot as a colored tab". It rounds the top two corners but does not
allow the user to round the bottom two or draw a box around text
anyplace else on the plot.
I want a rectangle with rounded corners where I can control the
location and size. Sizing the box to text would be a bonus.
boxed.labels{plotrix} is closer. However, I'd want to add the
following: the
* Some way of rounding the corners. This might be like a
parameter roundCorner being a number between 0 and 1, with 0 giving
square corners and 1 providing a semicircle at the ends textround {diagram}
* lwd and col parameters for the box: My immediate
application requires large red text in red box with rounded corners and
a thick line.
Other thoughts?
Thanks again,
Spencer Graves
p.s. If you would like, I could modify "boxed.labels" as just discussed
and email you the code. Or I could "Request to join" the plotrix
project on R-Forge and modify the help file as well as the code.
Jim
