Zoom-Plotting In R?

[gvanto]

I am using R and very pleased with it! (being a former Matlab user)

The plotting in R is pretty cool although I was wondering if someone knew about a more interactive plotting package which allows for example zooming in/out, etc, etc? (or is there a way to zoom in with R's plotting perhaps?)

Help much appreciated

Hi,
There are at least a few packages that can zoom plots in R. "iplots" and "playwith" are two different interactive plotting packages for R that you could try. I haven't actually used either one of those lately, but the screenshots of the new versions seem nice enough.

At least the TeachingDemos and IDPmisc http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/library/IDPmisc/html/zoom.html packages have zoom functions.

Search the R mailing list and I'm sure you'll come up with more options!

Hi thanks alot for your help.

I have tried iplots (which looks great), only, I can't get it to work in rkward (gui that I use for R, it's very cool) - has anyone managed to get iplots working in rkward? (it crashes when I do require(iplots)

Best
