Add Items to Plots

Routines to add various items to existing plots.

.addAxis(xlim, ylim, tckLab, tck, tckMinor, ...)
.addAxis2(side=1:2, xlim, ylim, tckLab, tck, tckMinor, ...)
.addBubblesLegend(radii.leg, usr.xdiff, usr.ydiff, symbol.zero, symbol.fg, symbol.bg,
   legend.pos, legend.breaks, legend.type, legend.title, legend.cex, ...)
.addCorners(polys, ptSummary)
.addFeature(feature, data, polyProps, isEventData, cex=NULL, col=NULL, font=NULL,
   pch=NULL, ...)
.addLabels(projection=NULL, ...)
.addProps(type, polyProps, ...)

Arguments

• xlim: numeric -- limits of the x-axis

• ylim: numeric -- limits of the y-axis

• tckLab: character -- tick labels

• tck: numeric -- length of tick marks as a fraction of the smaller of the width or height of the plotting region

• tckMinor: numeric -- length of minor tick marks between major tick marks

• ...: dots -- additional arguments used by functions within function

• side: numeric -- side of the plot (1=bottom, 2=left, 3=top, 4=right)

• radii.leg: numeric -- radii of bubbles in legend

• usr.xdiff: numeric -- difference between the limits of x

• usr.ydiff: numeric -- difference between the limits of y

• symbol.zero: character -- character to use for plotting zero values

• symbol.fg: numeric -- colour of bubble outline

• symbol.bg: numeric -- colour of bubble fill

• legend.pos: character -- one of legends positional strings (e.g., `bottomleft')

• legend.breaks: numeric -- break values for categorizing z-values

• legend.type: character -- display format for legend

• legend.title: character -- title for legend

• legend.cex: numeric -- size of legend text

• polys: PolySet -- polygon data file

• ptSummary: numeric -- used in computation of distance from candidate points to corner

• feature: character -- if 'points', add 'data' using 'points()'

  if 'labels', add 'data' using 'text()'

• data: data.frame -- one of the data structures used in 'PBSmapping'

• polyProps: data.frame -- polygon properties, like a 'PolyData' object

• isEventData: logical -- if TRUE, look for 'EID' column in 'data'

• cex: numeric -- value to magnify text and symbols relative to the default

• col: character|numeric -- colour for added feature

• font: numeric -- font number for added feature

• pch: numeric -- plotting symbol for added feature

• projection: character -- projection of plot on which to add label (either 'LL' or 'UTM')

• type: character -- data structure type, where 'e' = 'EventData' and 'p' = 'PolyData'

Details

Internal functions add features to an existing map plot.

Returns

Nothing in particular.
