colbar: Continuous or discrete colored bar or colored point

In metno/esd.test: Climate analysis and empirical-statistical downscaling (ESD) package for monthly and daily data.

Description

Display a colored bar into a map or a plot. There are two types that can be displayed: "r"ectangular or "p"oints. The colored bar could be continuous (v=0) or discrete (v>0) while the colored points are always discrete. The symbols of the colored points could be any "pch" symbol from the graphical parameter.

Usage

col.bar(breaks, horiz=TRUE, pch=21, v=1, h=1, col=col, cex=2,
cex.lab=0.81, type="r", verbose=FALSE, vl=0.5, border=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

breaks	A vector giving the breakpoints between color bars or points, An esd object to be mapped
horiz	Not tested !
pch	A graphical parameter. See select.station
type	Whether the color bar is rectangular (type="r") or points ("p").
n.breaks	An integer giving the _desired_ number of intervals. pretty
h	Horizontal space between the color bar and the upper axis. colbar
v	Vertical space to be used between the colored components.
border	Logical value. If TRUE, the border around the bars or the points are displyed. The default is set to FALSE
col	A specification for the default plotting color. Rainbow colors are used as defaults.
cex.lab	A numerical value giving the magnification to be used for labels.
verbose	Display progress details.
...	Additional graphical parameters. See par
