ColorScale {RPMG}

Color Scale

Description

Graded Color Scale position by locator

Usage

ColorScale(z, loc = list(x = 0, y = 0),  thick=1, len=1, offset=.2, col
= rainbow(100),border='black', gradcol='black',numbcol='black',  unitscol='black', 
units = "", SIDE = 1, font = 1, fontindex =1, cex=1)

Arguments

z

values to be scaled

loc

x-y location boundary of plotting area, user coordinates

thick

width of scale bar in inches

len

length of scale bar in inches

offset

offset from border, in inches

col

color palette

border

color for border of scale, NA=do not plot

gradcol

color for gradiation marks of scale, NA=do not plot

numbcol

color for number values of scale, NA=do not plot

unitscol

color for units character string, NA=do not plot

units

character, units for values

SIDE

side, 1,2,3,4 as in axis

font

vfont number

fontindex

font index number

cex

character expansion, see par for details

Details

Locations (loc) are given in User coordinates. The scale is plotted relative to the location provided in user coordinates and offset by so many inches outside that unit. to get a scale plotted on the interior of a plot, send ColorScale a rectangular box inside the plotting region and give it a 0 offset. All other measures are given in inches. To suppress the plotting of a particular item, indicate NA for its color.

Since the list of the bounding box is returned, this can be used to modify the text, e.g. change the way the units are displayed.

Value

list Graphical Side effects and list of bounding box for color scale:

x

x coordinates of box

y

y coordinates of box
