adds 2-segmented arrow between two points

Description

Connects two points with 2 segments (default = horizontal-vertical) and adds an arrowhead on (one of) the segments and at a certain distance.

Usage

bentarrow(from, to, lwd = 2, lty = 1, lcol = "black", arr.col = lcol, 
          arr.side = 2, arr.pos = 0.5, path = "H", ...)

Arguments

from

coordinates (x,y) of the point *from* which to draw arrow.

to

coordinates (x,y) of the point *to* which to draw arrow.

lwd

line width.

lty

line type.

lcol

line color.

arr.col

arrowhead color.

arr.side

segment number on which arrowhead is drawn (1,2).

arr.pos

relative position of arrowhead on segment on which arrowhead is drawn.

path

first segment to be drawn (V=Vertical, H=Horizontal).

...

other arguments passed to function straightarrow.

Details

a two-segmented arrow is drawn between two points '(from, to)'

how the segments are drawn is set with path which can take on the values:

  • H: (horizontal): first left or right, then vertical.

  • V: (vertical) : first down- or upward, then horizontal.

The segment(s) on which the arrow head is drawn is set with arr.side, which is one or more values in (1, 2)

The position of the arrowhead on the segment on which it is drawn, is set with arr.pos, a value between 0(start of segment) and 1 (end of segment).

The type of the arrowhead is set with arr.type which can take the values:

  • "none" : skips the drawing of arrows.

  • "simple" : uses comparable R function arrows.

  • "triangle": uses filled triangle.

  • "curved" : draws arrowhead with curved edges.

  • "circle" : draws circular head.

  • "ellipse" : draws ellepsoid head.

  • "T" : draws T-shaped (blunt) head.

The size of the arrow head can be specified with the arguments arr.length and arr.width.

See Arrowhead from package shape for details on arrow head.

Value

coordinates (x,y) where arrowhead is drawn

coordinates of elements on a plot

Description

estimates coordinates of elements, neatly arranged on a plot.

Usage

coordinates(pos = NULL, mx = 0.0, my = 0.0, N = length(pos), 
            hor = TRUE, relsize = 1)

Arguments

pos

vector specifying the number of elements in each row, or 2-columned matrix with element position, or NULL.

mx

horizontal shift (x).

my

vertical shift (y).

N

total number of elements to be positioned - only if pos=NULL.

hor

only if pos is a 2-columned matrix. In this case, when hor = TRUE, pos specifies number of elements per row; when FALSE per column.

relsize

scaling factor as a function of graph size.

Details

the position of the elements are specified with pos, which is either NULL, or a vector specifying the number of elements on a row, or a 2-columned matrix specifying the (x,y) position of each element.

  • when pos is NULL, the elements will be arranged on a circle; in this case, the number of elements to be positioned must be specified with N.

  • when pos is a vector, it specifies the number of elements in each row (if hor =TRUE) or in each column (if hor = FALSE).

    For instance, with hor=TRUE and pos = c(3,2,1) the elements will be arranged in 3 rows (length of vector); on the top row 3 elements; on the second row 2; and on the third row 1 element will be positioned. All elements within a row are equally distributed horizontally; all rows are equally distributed vertically;

  • when pos is a matrix, it specifies the x(1st column) and y(2nd column) position of each element and is returned as such.

The offset from the x-axis and from the y-axis can be changed with mx and my.

Value

2-columned matrix, with coordinates (x,y) of each of the elements

Examples

openplotmat(main = "coordinates")

text(coordinates(N = 6), lab = LETTERS[1:6], cex = 2)

text(coordinates(N = 8, relsize = 0.5), lab = letters[1:8], cex = 2)

openplotmat(main = "coordinates")

text(coordinates(pos = c(2, 4, 2)), lab = letters[1:8], cex = 2)

adds curved arrow between two points

Description

Connects two points with an ellipsoid line and adds an arrowhead at a certain distance

Usage

curvedarrow(from, to, lwd = 2, lty = 1, lcol = "black", 
            arr.col = lcol, arr.pos = 0.5, curve = 1, dr = 0.01, 
            endhead = FALSE, segment = c(0, 1), ...)

Arguments

from

coordinates (x,y) of the point *from* which to draw arrow.

to

coordinates (x,y) of the point *to* which to draw arrow.

lwd

line width.

lty

line type.

lcol

line color.

arr.col

arrowhead color.

arr.pos

relative position of arrowhead.

curve

relative size of curve (fraction of points distance) - see details.

dr

size of segments, in radians, to draw ellipse (decrease for smoother).

endhead

if TRUE: the arrow line stops at the arrowhead; default = FALSE.

segment

if not c(0,1): then the arrow line will cover only part of the requested path, e.g. if segment = c(0.2,0.8), it will start 0.2 from from and till 0.8.

...

arguments passed to function Arrows.

Details

A curved arrow is drawn between two points '(from, to)'

The position of the arrowhead, is set with arr.pos, a value between 0(start point) and 1(endpoint)

The line curvature is set with curve which expresses the ellipse radius as a fraction of the distance between the two points. For instance, curve=0.5 will draw an ellepse with small radius half of a circle.

The type of the arrowhead is set with arr.type which can take the values:

  • "none" : skips the drawing of arrows.

  • "simple" : uses comparable R function arrows.

  • "triangle": uses filled triangle.

  • "curved" : draws arrowhead with curved edges.

  • "circle" : draws circular head.

  • "ellipse" : draws ellepsoid head.

  • "T" : draws T-shaped (blunt) head.

The size of the arrow head can be specified with the arguments arr.length and arr.width.

See Arrowhead from package shape for details on arrow head

Value

default

coordinates (x,y) where arrowhead is drawn.

Details

The square transition matrix A determines the number of elements of A (rows of A) and which elements are connected (all values in A different from absent).

A also provides the values of arrowlabels.

The position of the elements are specified with pos, which is either NULL, or a vector specifying the number of elements on a row, or a 2-columned matrix specifying the (x,y) position of each element.

The ordering of elements is according to the row number of A

  • when pos is NULL, the elements will be arranged on a circle

  • when pos is a vector, it specifies the number of elements in each row. For instance, with pos = c(3,2,1) the elements will be arranged in 3 rows (length of vector); on top row, 3 elements; on second row 2, and on third row 1 element will be positioned. All elements within a row are equally distributed horizontally, all rows are equally distributed vertically.

  • when pos is a matrix, it specifies the x (1st column) and y (2nd column) position of each element.

The offset from x-axis and from y-axis can be changed with mx and my.

The name of each element is given by vector name; this name is written in its respective box.

The relative size of this text can be changed by box.cex.

By default, a shadow is drawn, in the right-lower corner of the box.

The shadow color and relative size is specified with shadow.col and shadow.size respectively.

both can be one value (equal shadows) or a vector, specifying one value for each box shadow.

shadow.size = 0 toggles off the drawing of the shadow.

The type of the box is set with "box.type" which can take on the values:

  • "rect": a rectangle,

  • "ellipse": an ellipse,

  • "diamond": a diamond,

  • "round": a rectangle with rounded left and right edges,

  • "hexa": a hexagonal shape,

  • "multi": a multigonal shape.

  • "none" if no box is to be drawn.

The length of the box is set with box.size, the proportionality (length/width) ratio with box.prop.

The fill-color of the box is specified with box.col; the line width of the box with box.lwd and the line color with box.lcol;

All box properties can be either one value (equal boxes) or a vector, specifying one value for each box.

For all values A[i,j] of A which are not equal to absent, one arrow is drawn *from* column-element j *to* the row-element i of A.

The curvature of this arrow is specified with matrix element curve[i,j],

where 'curve' is either NULL, one value, or has the same dimension as A.

A straight arrow has curvature 0, NA (the default) chooses a default curvature,

Positive or negative values of curve draws curved arrows.

If the arrow is curved, then dr is the increment used to draw the ellipse; set to a lower value for smoother lines.

The type of the arrowhead is set with arr.type which can take the values:

  • "simple" : uses comparable R function arrows

  • "triangle": uses filled triangle

  • "curved" : draws arrowhead with curved edges

  • "circle" : draws circular head

  • "ellipse" : draws ellepsoid head

  • "T" : draws T-shaped (blunt) head

  • "none" : no arrow head is drawn

The line color and width of the arrow line is set with arr.lcol and arr.lwd

The size of the arrow head is specified with arr.length and arr.width,

the position of the arrow head is specified with arr.pos (value between [0,1]).

see Arrowhead for details on arrow head

Value

arr

a data.frame with arrow information:

  • nonzero: the elements between which an arrow is drawn.

  • Angle: the angle of the arrow.

  • Value: the value written next to the arrow head.

  • ArrowX: the x-position of arrowhead.

  • ArrowY: the y-position of arrowhead.

  • TextX: the x-position of arrowtext.

  • TextY: the y-position of arrowtext.

.

comp

Details

This function is less flexible than function plotmat

It is meant for visualisation of food web flows, that are inputted as a flow matrix.

It displays the elements on a circle, and, where there is a mass flow, two elements are connected,

the magnitude of the web flows is reflected by the thickness of the arrow

Note that the input matrices from function plotmat and plotweb are transposed.

Gulf of Riga autumn planktonic food web

Description

Carbon flux matrix of the Gulf of Riga planktonic food web in autumn as reconstructed by inverse modelling by Donali et al. (1999).

The Gulf of Riga is a highly eutrophic system in the Baltic Sea.

The foodweb comprises 7 functional compartments:

  • picoautotrophs (P1)

  • non-picoautotrophs (P2)

  • bacteria (B)

  • heterotrophic nanoflagellates (N)

  • zooplankton (Z)

  • detritus, including virus (D)

  • dissolved organic carbon (DOC)

and two external compartments:

  • CO2

  • Sedimentation

These compartments are connected with 26 flows.

Units of the flows are mg C/m3/day.

Usage

Rigaweb

Format

matrix with flow values, where element ij denotes flow from compartment i to j

rownames and columnames are the components.

  • "RVL": first right then vertical then left.

  • "UHD": first up then horizontal then down.

  • "DHU": first down then horizontal then up.

The segment(s) on which the arrow head is drawn is set with arr.side, which is one or more values in (1, 2, 3).

The position of the arrowhead, on the segment on which it is drawn, is set with arr.pos, a value between 0(start of segment) and 1 (end of segment)

The type of the arrowhead is set with arr.type which can take the values:

  • "none" : skips the drawing of arrows.

  • "simple" : uses comparable R function arrows.

  • "triangle": uses filled triangle.

  • "curved" : draws arrowhead with curved edges.

  • "circle" : draws circular head.

  • "ellipse" : draws ellepsoid head.

Population dynamics model transition matrix of teasel

Description

Transition matrix of the population dynamics model of teasel (Dipsacus sylvestris), a European perennial weed, as discussed in Caswell (2001), and in Soetaert and Herman, (2009)

The life cycle of teasel can be described by six stages:

  • dormant seeds < 1yr (DS 1yr)

  • dormant seeds 1-2yr (DS 2yr)

  • small rosettes <2.5cm (R small)

  • medium rosettes 2.5-18.9 cm (R medium)

  • large rosettes >19 cm (R large)

  • flowering plants (F)

The matrix contains the transition probabilities from one compartment (column) to another (row).

Usage

  lcol = "black", shadow.col = "grey", angle = 0, rx = rady, ...)

Arguments

mid

midpoint (x,y) of the box.

radx

horizontal radius of the box.

rady

vertical radius of the box.

lwd

line width of line surrounding the box.

shadow.size

adds a dendrogram-like branched arrow between several points

Description

connects two sets of points with a dendrogram-like structure,

adds an arrowhead at a certain distance.

Usage

treearrow(from, to, lwd = 2, lty = 1, lcol = "black", arr.col = lcol, 
          arr.side = 2, arr.pos = 0.5, line.pos = 0.5, path = "H", ...)

Arguments

from

matrix of coordinates (x,y) of points *from* which to draw arrow.

to

matrix of coordinates (x,y) of points *to* which to draw arrow.

lwd

line width.

lty

line type.

lcol

line color.

arr.col

arrow color.

arr.side

segment number on which arrowhead is drawn (1,2).

arr.pos

relative position of arrowhead on segment on which arrowhead is drawn.

line.pos

relative position of (horizontal/vertical) line.

path

Vertical, Horizontal.

...

other arguments passed to function straightarrow.

Details

a tree-shaped arrow is drawn between points '(from, to)', where both from and to can be several points.

How the segments are drawn is set with path which can take on the values:

  • "H": (horizontal): first left or right.

  • "V": (vertical): first down- or upward.

The segment(s) on which the arrow head is drawn is set with arr.side, which is one or more values in (1, 2)

The position of the arrowhead on the segment on which it is drawn, is set with arr.pos, a value between 0(start of segment) and 1(end of segment)

The type of the arrowhead is set with arr.type which can take the values:

  • "none" : skips the drawing of arrows.

  • "simple" : uses comparable R function arrows.

  • "triangle": uses filled triangle.

  • "curved" : draws arrowhead with curved edges.

  • "circle" : draws circular head.

  • "ellipse" : draws ellepsoid head.

  • "T" : draws T-shaped (blunt) head.

The size of the arrow head can be specified with the arguments arr.length and arr.width.

See Arrowhead from package shape for details on arrow head.

Value

coordinates (x,y) where arrowhead is drawn
