Hi Jason,
lattice, with the help of the latticeExtra package does excellent
"business"-like 3D bars. With devices like PDF that handle transparency you
can make the facets transparent.
library(lattice)
library(latticeExtra)
?panel.3dbars
## Example from the help file (modified to show alpha channel capab.)
cloud(VADeaths, panel.3d.cloud = panel.3dbars,
xbase = 0.4, ybase = 0.4,
screen = list(z = 40, x=-60), col.facet="grey", alpha.facet=.5)
Regards, Mark.
