I am stuck with R 2.14.0 for now because the COM interface that I am using (RandFriends) is still on 2.14.0. When I try to install this package (via the script) I get:
packages 'qtbase', 'qtpaint' are not available (for R version 2.14.0) Is there an alternate way to install these packages?

Hi Kevin, I haven't watched through the video yet, but I guess It's not ggplot2, just like David pointed out, it's actually using a different graphic engine, implemented in packages qtbase/qtpaint, which are hosted on Biocondcutor, to install them, please run source("http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R";) biocLite(c("qtbase", "qtpaint")) Another project in development you probably are interested in trying for same kind of qt-based interactive graphics called cranvas https://github.com/ggobi/cranvas HTH Tengfei On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 12:57 PM, David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> wrote: On Jan 24, 2012, at 1:15 PM, Kevin Burton wrote: I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSXNfZESR5I and there is a section where Hadley Wickham showed demonstrated a county map of the US that was interactive. This is exactly what I would like. I have downloaded ggplot2 but still failed to find out how to even read in and plot something like a US map let alone add the kind of interactivity that was shown in this demo. Anyone else succeed at interacting with a plot of the US like this? https://github.com/hadley/vis-migration [[alternative HTML version deleted]] Sigh. -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT ______________________________________________ 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. -- Tengfei Yin MCDB PhD student 1620 Howe Hall, 2274, Iowa State University Ames, IA,50011-2274 Homepage: www.tengfei.name [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
