Hi, You can make a biplot on Your own, it is not so hard. And in this case You can change parameters for every low level function as You wish.
PC <- prcomp (iris[,1:4]) lambda <- PC$sdev * sqrt(nrow(PC$x)) plot (t(t(PC$x)/lambda),pch=16,col=as.numeric(iris[,5])) par (new=T) Rot <- t(t(PC$rotation)*lambda) XLIM <- c(-max(abs(Rot[,1])),max(abs(Rot[,1]))) XLIM <- XLIM+(XLIM*0.1) plot(Rot,col=4,axes=FALSE,xlim=XLIM,ylim=XLIM,pch="") arrows (rep(0,nrow(PC$rotation)),rep(0,nrow(PC$rotation)),Rot[,1],Rot[,2],col=4) text (Rot[,1:2],rownames(Rot),col=6) axis (3) axis (4) Best regards, Andris On Wed, Sep 2, 2009 at 1:02 PM, Manca Marco (PATH)<m.ma...@path.unimaas.nl> wrote: > > Dear R-help fellows > > good afternoon. > > I am struggling in the attempt to impose some graphical conditions (changing > point symbols, colors, etc) to biplot function (I am using it to visualize > the results of princomp) but I can't apparently manage to change anything but > the axis... and I have been browsing manuals and vignettes without finding > any explicit suggestions on how to operate... > > Can anyone, please, point my attention to the relevant documentation? > > Thank you in advance and best regards, > Marco > > -- > Marco Manca, MD > University of Maastricht > Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML) > Cardiovascular Research Institute (CARIM) > PO Box 616 > 6200 MD Maastricht > > E-mail: m.ma...@path.unimaas.nl > Office telephone: +31(0)433874633 > Personal mobile: +31(0)626441205 > Twitter: @markomanka > > > ********************************************************************************************************************* > > This email and any files transmitted with it are confide...{{dropped:15}} > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
