The initial view is along the positive z-axis: wireframe(volcano, shade = TRUE, screen = list()) To change it to the negative z-axis, rotate by 180 along the x-axis: wireframe(volcano, shade = TRUE, screen = list(x = 180)) Then, add any further adjustments you wish: wireframe(volcano, shade = TRUE, screen = list(x = 180, z = -30, x = -30)) -Deepayan ______________________________________________ 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.
