Sorry, I mixed up some words... I wrote rectangle but meant TRIANGLE, sorry for that.
As for the book, I own it, studied it as well as the help pages but didn't come to a conclusion for my problem. Aspect can't help me with my problem. I need to set up the axes and obviously make some transformations and that's where I'm looking for some help... ---- User-level control of the display is at the level of (1) either the panel function, which is somewhat non-trivial for the 3-D functions, or (2) the 'panel.3d.wireframe' function (for wireframe), where you can basically do anything after the axes and the transformations have been set up. --- Thomas -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: David Winsemius [mailto:dwinsem...@comcast.net] Gesendet: Freitag, 18.

When I tried to use the Lattice book, I found that I could not locate the code that produced the example I remembered (Figure and could not initially findo Figures 13.8 and 13.9 (because they were in the color plates section in chapter 3) that appeared to be the result for the section to which I was referred from chapter 6.5. So I would suggest going to the book's website: http://lmdvr.r-forge.r-project.org/figures/figures.html and looking at the code for 13.9 and 6.5, both of which use cloud but I think the parameter you want is aspect, which is also in the parameter list for wireframe. Further examination of the wireframe help page examples suggests that you have not yet looked at that resource, since the first one uses aspect to create a rectangular bounding box. -- David. r > > Thomas > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Deepayan Sarkar [mailto:deepayan.sar...@gmail.com] > Gesendet: Freitag, 18.
