xy.send: INTERACTIVE SCATTERPLOT

In sendplot: Tool for sending interactive plots with tool-tip content.

Description

This function is a wrapper to sendplot that will create a single interactive scatterplot

Usage

xy.send(plot.call, 
        x.pos,
        y.pos,
        plot.extras = NA,
        mai.mat=NA, mai.prc=FALSE,
        xy.labels=NA,
        image.size="800x1100",
        spot.radius = 5,
        fname.root="Splot",
        dir="./",
        window.size = "800x1100", 
        ...)

Arguments

plot.call	character vector containing single plot call
x.pos	vector of x locations for interactive points
y.pos	vector of y locations for interactive points
plot.extras	List of additional plotting calls that should be executed for the plot.
mai.mat	1 x 4 matrix of values to be passed in for each plots par mai. n is equal to the length of plot.calls. If NA, uses default margins.
mai.prc	logical indicating if mai mat values are percentages or hard coded values. If mai.proc is T, indicates percentage.
xy.labels	list of matricies. All matricies should be of n x m where n is the length of xpos or ypos. This information is displayed in the interactive plot window
image.size	character indicating size of device.
spot.radius	radius of circle in pixels indicating area that will be interactive around the center of graphed points
fname.root	Base name to use for all files created.
dir	directory path to where files should be created. Default creates files in working directory
window.size	size of the html window
...	additional arguments to the makeImap function

Details

This function is a wrapper for the sendplot function to create a single interacive scatterplot. See initSplot, makeImap, and makeSplot for more information.

Users are encouraged to read the package vignette which includes a detailed discussion of all function arguments as well as several useful examples.

Value

Creates a static and interactive scatterplot

Note

The interactive html plot currently only works in web browsers that implement java script.

The code used to create the javascript embedded in html file is a modified version of the javascript code or from the open source tooltip library. see reference links
