| textplot {PerformanceAnalytics} | R Documentation |
This function displays text output in a graphics window. It is the equivalent of 'print' except that the output is displayed as a plot.
textplot(object, halign="center", valign="center", cex, ...)
## Default S3 method:
textplot(object, halign=c("center","left","right"),
valign=c("center", "top", "bottom"), cex, ... )
## S3 method for class 'character':
textplot(object, halign = c("center", "left", "right"),
valign = c("center", "top", "bottom"), cex, fixed.width=TRUE,
cspace=1, lspace=1, mar=c(0, 0, 3, 0) + 0.1,
tab.width = 8, ...)
## S3 method for class 'data.frame':
textplot(object, halign = c("center", "left", "right"),
valign = c("center", "top", "bottom"), cex, ...)
## S3 method for class 'matrix':
textplot(object, halign = c("center", "left", "right"), valign = c("center", "top", "bottom"), cex, max.cex = 1, cmar = 2, rmar = 0.5, show.rownames = TRUE, show.colnames = TRUE, hadj = 1, vadj=NULL, row.valign = "center", heading.valign = "bottom", mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0) + 0.1, col.data = par("col"), col.rownames = par("col"), col.colnames = par("col"), wrap = TRUE, wrap.colnames = 10, wrap.rownames = 10, ...)
replaceTabs(text, width=8)
object |
Object to be displayed. |
halign |
Alignment in the x direction, one of "center", "left", or "right". |
valign |
Alignment in the y direction, one of "center", "top" , or "bottom" |
cex |
Character size, see par for details. If
unset, the code will attempt to use the largest value which allows
the entire object to be displayed. |
fixed.width |
Logical value indicating whether to emulate a fixed-width font by aligning characters in each row of text. This is usually necessary for text-formatted tables display properly. Defaults to 'TRUE'. |
cspace |
Space between characters as a
multiple of the width of the letter 'W'. This only applies when
fixed.width==TRUE. |
lspace |
Line spacing. This only applies when
fixed.width==TRUE. |
mar |
Figure margins, see the documentation for par. |
rmar, cmar |
Space between rows or columns, in fractions of the size of the letter 'M'. |
show.rownames, show.colnames |
Logical value indicating whether row or column names will be displayed. |
hadj,vadj |
Vertical and horizontal location of elements within
matrix cells. These have the same meaning as the adj graphics
paramter (see par). |
col.data |
Colors for data elements. If a single value is provided, all data elements will be the same color. If a matrix matching the dimensions of the data is provided, each data element will receive the specified color. |
col.rownames, col.colnames |
Colors for row names and column names, respectively. Either may be specified as a scalar or a vector of appropriate length. |
tab.width |
Width of a single tab stop, in characters |
max.cex |
Sets the largest text size as a ceiling |
row.valign |
Sets the vertical alignment of the row as "top", "bottom", or (default) "center". |
heading.valign |
Sets the vertical alignment of the heading as "top", (default) "bottom", or "center". |
wrap |
If TRUE (default), will wrap column names and rownames |
wrap.colnames |
The number of characters after which column labels will be wrapped. Default is 10. |
wrap.rownames |
The number of characters after which row headings will be wrapped. Default is 10. |
text |
in the function 'replaceTabs', the text string to be processed |
width |
in the function 'replaceTabs', the number of spaces to replace tabs with |
... |
Optional arguments passed to the text plotting command or specialized object methods |
A new plot is created and the object is displayed
using the largest font that will fit on in the plotting region. The
halign and valign parameters can be used to control the
location of the string within the plotting region.
For matrixes and vectors a specialized textplot function is available, which plots each of the cells individually, with column widths set according to the sizes of the column elements. If present, row and column labels will be displayed in a bold font.
textplot also uses replaceTabs, a function to replace all tabs in a string with an appropriate number of spaces. That function was also written by Gregory R. Warnes and included in the 'gplots' package.
The character scaling factor (cex) used.

## Not run:
### simple examples
# show R version information
textplot(version)
# show the alphabet as a single string
textplot( paste(letters[1:26], collapse=" ") )
# show the alphabet as a matrix
textplot( matrix(letters[1:26], ncol=2))
### Make a nice 4 way display with two plots and two text summaries
data(iris)
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
plot( Sepal.Length ~ Species, data=iris, border="blue", col="cyan",
main="Boxplot of Sepal Length by Species" )
plotmeans( Sepal.Length ~ Species, data=iris, barwidth=2, connect=FALSE,
main="Means and 95% Confidence Intervals\nof Sepal Length by Species")
info <- sapply( split(iris$Sepal.Length, iris$Species),
function(x) round(c(Mean=mean(x), SD=sd(x), N=gdata::nobs(x)),2) )
textplot( info, valign="top" )
title("Sepal Length by Species")
reg <- lm( Sepal.Length ~ Species, data=iris )
textplot( capture.output(summary(reg)), valign="top")
title("Regression of Sepal Length by Species")
par(mfrow=c(1,1))
### Show how to control text color
cols <- c("red", "green", "magenta", "forestgreen")
mat <- cbind(name=cols, t(col2rgb(cols)), hex=col2hex(cols))
textplot(mat,
col.data=matrix(cols, nrow=length(cols), byrow=FALSE, ncol=5),
)
### Show how to manually tune the character size
data(iris)
reg <- lm( Sepal.Length ~ Species, data=iris )
text <- capture.output(summary(reg))
# do the plot and capture the character size used
textplot(text, valign="top")
# see what size was used
cex
# now redo the plot at 80% size
textplot( text, valign="top", cex=cex*0.80)
