XMLPlot-class: Classes for representing different types of plots in SVG

In duncantl/SVGAnnotation: Tools for post-processing SVG plots created in R

Description

These classes are intended to provide information about the content of an SVG plot in R after we read the XML tree into R. Many operations can be done on a plot with no knowledge of what type of plot it is, e.g. a scatter plot or a box plot. However, when the processing depends on the type of the plot, then we can use these classes to identify the nature of the plot and to identify appropriate methods. For example, a histogram is made up of rectangles and tooltips are very different for these than for points in a scatter plot.

Objects from the Class

A virtual Class: No objects may be created from it.

Slots

.S3Class:

Basically, we use these S3 classes as labels identifying the type of plot. We may add information such as the number of panels, the conditioning variables, etc. in a lattice plot.

Extends

Class "XMLInternalDocument", directly. Class "XMLAbstractDocument", by class "XMLInternalDocument", distance 2. Class "oldClass", by class "XMLInternalDocument", distance 3.

Methods

No methods defined with class "XMLPlot" in the signature.
