filledmultigonal {shape}R Documentation

adds a colored and rotated multigonal shape to a plot

Description

draws and colors a rotated shape with equal-sized vertices ; color can be a palette

Usage

filledmultigonal(mid=c(0,0), rx=1, ry=rx, nr=4, 
  col=femmecol(100),values=NULL, zlim=NULL,lwd=2,lcol=NA,angle=0, ...)

Arguments

mid midpoint of multigonal
rx horizontal radius
ry vertical radius
nr number of sides
col color palette to be used; also allowed are two extremes or one value
values if not null, a matrix providing (radius,z-values) couples, used for coloring.
zlim Only if values is not NULL: the minimum and maximum z values for which colors should be plotted, defaulting to the range of the finite values of the second column of *values*.
lwd width of external line
lcol line color
angle angle of rotation, in degrees
... arguments passed to R-function "polygon"

Details

Coloration proceeds from midpoint to external edge

rx,ry: horizontal and vertical radiusses of the shape
Here "horizontal" and "vertical" denote the position BEFORE rotation

values: if not null, a matrix providing (radius,z-values) couples, used for coloring. Here radius are positive values denoting the relative distance between the shapes centre and edge. The radiusses are rescaled to be in [0,1] if needed. z-values (2nd column of *values*) together with zlim and col denote the coloration level. Colors in *col* will be interpolated to the z-values and used to color an interval as given by the input radiusses.
