Hi,
Is anyone on the list familiar with an R implementation of Piper Diagrams?
Example:

I am thinking that two calls to triax.plot (plotrix) along with some kind of
affine-transformed standard plot would do the trick. Not so sure about the
final layout, or a nice generalized version for something like lattice.
Hi Dylan,
You're correct about the lower two triangle plots, triax.plot would
handle these (although there would probably be a bit of hacking about to
get the two plots in the right place). I don't understand the upper
rhombus. As a third triangle plot I can get it, but the bottom half
seems to be either redundant or nonsensical (you can't have negative
proportions of components). If I have some time, I'll look up "piper
plot" and try to work out what it all means.
Jim
