Dear all,
I'm wondering why hclust and dendrogram objects lead to different
plots:
Let's say "hc" is an hclust object. Now,
> plot(hc)
gives the first tree plot.
Next, I change the feature ordering in hc$order slightly (no
overlapping
branches). Now,
> plot(hc)
gives a second plot that looks like intended (actually, I just swapped
the
first two subtrees).
But with
> plot(as.dendrogram(hc))
I am back at the first plot (well, at least with the same tree
structure,
the format changes of course).
How can I keep the intended ordering when plotting an dendrogram
object?
Thanks a lot,
Stefanie.
