Hi Sarah, Thanks for the explanation. This solves my first problem. I hope somebody will be able to answer my second question. Copied here from previous email >>
Another question: some of my matrices have missing cells and I do not want to assign any colors to the missing cells. The following code gives me error. I am trying to use the output (cellcol) to the function color2D.matplot. > cellcol<-matrix("#000000", nrow=nrow(plotdata),ncol=ncol(plotdata)) > cellcol[x<0.33]<-color.scale(x[x<0.33],c(1,0.8),c(0,0.8),0, na.color=NA) Error in cellcol[x < 0.33] <- color.scale(x[x < 0.33], c(1, 0.8), c(0, : NAs are not allowed in subscripted assignments In addition: Warning messages: 1: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf 2: In max(x) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf ᐧ Postdoctoral Associate Department of Biology University of Maryland, College Park On Fri, Oct 9, 2015 at 11:48 AM, Sarah Goslee <sarah.gos...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Kumar, > > You're overthinking it: > > in RGB, colorspace, cs1 is red, cs2 is green, cs3 is blue. > So if cs1=c(1,1),cs2=(c(0,1),cs3=0 (or c(0,0) because of R's recycling) > the first color in the sequence is c(1, 0, 0) or red ##FF0000 and the > second color is c(1, 1, 0) #FFFF00 or yellow. > > Sarah > > On Fri, Oct 9, 2015 at 11:16 AM, Kumar Mainali <kpmain...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Hi Jim, > > > > Thank you!
