Dear List, I have examined the sp, maptools, and shapefiles packages (Windows) but cannot seem to figure out a solution for writing shapefiles for 'curvy shapes'. The scenario is that I generate a series of polygons, circles, and ellipses on a plot and would like to convert them to shapefiles. Since the circles and ellipses are do not return a coordinate list during the plotting sequence (e.g., all I need supply are the lengths of axes and rotation angle), is there an easy way by which the plot window can be converted to a shapefile?
Thank you, Tarmo __________________________________________ Tarmo Remmel Ph.D. GUESS Lab, Department of Geography University of Toronto at Mississauga Mississauga, Ontario, L5L 1C6 Tel: 905-569-4382 Lab: 905-828-3868 Fax: 905-828-5273 Skype: tarmoremmel http://eratos.erin.utoronto.ca/remmelt ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
