Still hacking around I have changed my function to first plot an empty plot on the same window (par(new=T)) using graphRenderInfo()$bbox coordinates as xlim and ylim values, before calling identify() or plotting stuff using the node coordinates. bbox <- graphRenderInfo(graph)$bbox par(new=T, mai=c(0,0,0,0)) plot(xy,xlim=bbox[,1],ylim=bbox[,2], pch=19, col=showNodeXY*3) This already comes much closer, but is not quite there yet. I guess to do it correctly would require setting or using the user coordinates in "usr", but I don't really know how "usr" works yet. I will have a closer loock at this and the renderGraph methods once I have some spare time (unless someone jumps in heroically to help me out ;) Thanks, Rainer > Florian might be able to tell you more on how to map the output of that > to the user coordinates of the R graphics device. > > Best wishes > Wolfgang > > > Btw, a "poor man's" interactive plot (in static html) can be made like > this: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~huber/tooltips/IMCA/imca.R > resulting in http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~huber/tooltips/IMCA/imca.html > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > Wolfgang Huber > EMBL > http://www.embl.de/research/units/genome_biology/huber > ------------------------------------------------------- > > > > Machne ha scritto: > > Hi, > > > > I want to use interactive features of R ("identify()") on Rgraphviz > > plots, and also plot other things over the plotted graph (using node > > coordinates) after it has been rendered.

Hi Rainer, let me try to be the hero here :) When you call the renderGraph method, the graph object is returned with some useful information added to the graphRenderInfo slot: library(graph) set.seed(123) V <- letters[1:5] M <- 1:2 g1 <- randomGraph(V, M, 0.5) edgemode(g1) <- "directed" x <- layoutGraph(g1) y <- renderGraph(x) names(graphRenderInfo(y)) [1] "bbox" "laidout" "recipEdges" "nativeCoords" "figDim" [6] "usr" "mai" As you can see, there are two graphical parameters in there, 'mai' and 'usr'. The former sets the plot margins and the letter sets the user coordinate system. All you need to do is extract these values and set the graphical parameters accordingly using the 'par' function. Please note that 'mai' has to be set first since it affects the value of 'usr'. So the following little example would add the numbers 1 to 5 on top of the nodes: par(mai=graphRenderInfo(y)$mai, usr=graphRenderInfo(y)$usr) text(nodeRenderInfo(y)$nodeX, nodeRenderInfo(y)$nodeY, 1:5, col=2, cex=4) Of course you could make this a bit more elegant by creating a little function that calls an arbitrary plotting function with the parameters set accordingly, something along the lines of: addToGraph <- function(graph, fun) { opar <- par(mai=graphRenderInfo(graph)$mai, usr=graphRenderInfo(graph) $usr) on.exit(par=opar) fun(graph) } And the example from above would then be: addToGraph(y, function(g) text(nodeRenderInfo(g)$nodeX, nodeRenderInfo(g)$nodeY, seq_along(nodes(g)), col=3, cex=4)) Hope that's what you were looking for, Florian On 31.08.2009, at 23:43, Rainer Machne wrote: > On Mon, 2009-08-31 at 14:54 +0200, Wolfgang Huber wrote: >> Dear Rainer >> >> Have a look at the 'renderGraph' function: >> showMethods("renderGraph", includeDefs=TRUE) >> >> and at >> >> r1 <- renderGraph(g1) >> graphRenderInfo(r1) >> > > Ok, thanks!

Thanks :) I was only playing around with interactive graph thingy while waiting for some other calculations, but it appears rather simple to make an interactive graph thing in R. The simple function now allows to remove, collapse and expand selected nodes, or e.g. click on a node and call an any passed function that can do something with the node name or label (e.g. plot some other data on a new x11() device, or open a website). Such interactivity could e.g. be useful for exploring larger metabolic networks etc., for which usually one would have to go into Cytoscape or other interactive graph software, but it'd be nice to allow some simple stuff in R. I can share my quick hack approach to this if anyone is interested, but also I'd be very interested if other thigns in this direction already exist or are worked on.
