Thread-topic: persp(), graphsheet(), eps, z-axis

Good morning,

 

I’m at the end of my rope with persp() & graphsheet()

 

I’ve got nice looking graphics on the monitor.  I’ve used the persp() routine to produce surfaces of various forms and love them – exactly what I’d set out to do. The problems arise when I try to export the figures.  When I use graphsheet to print them to an EPS file the z-axis tick mark labels are rotated oddly, the z-axis tick mark labels are larger than those on the x and y axis, and the z-axis label is spun(rotated) such that it veers outward away from the z-axis such that it is not parallel to the axis.

 

Here’s my graphsheet() command:

 

    graphsheet(file="..//pics//Emp2000.eps",format="EPS",orientation="LANDSCAPE") 

 

Here’s my persp() command:

 

  persp(x=seq.x,y=seq.y,loess.predict,xlab="Relative Longitude (mi to CBD)",ylab="Relative Latitude (mi to CBD)",

        box=F,zlab= “Employment Density”,zlim=c(-2,120),eye=eye,col=2)

 

 

I’ve tried the usual 2-D workarounds of using axes=F and plotting my own axis tick marks and labels, but you can’t do this in 3-D.

 

Any help would be most appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Chris.
