Thank you!
Sorry, I have a couple more questions:
1) How to I turn off the box shading completely? I figured out how to
lighten it up to a grey color with col=c("white"... . I looked in the
package pdf, but I didn't see anything.
2) I read about the zunit in the package pdf, but no matter what I change it
to it doesn't seem to change anything.
Here is where I am at right now:
x<- 1:10
y<- 1:10
z<- matrix(outer(x-5,y-5) + rnorm(100), 10, 10)
open3d()
persp3d(x, y, z, col="red",
alpha=0.7,aspect=c(1,1,1),xlab='',ylab='',zlab='z', axes=F)
bbox3d(xat=c(5, 6), xlab=c("a", "b"), yat=c(2,4,6), zunit=10,
col=c("white","black"))
Thank you for your help!
