l_glyph_add_polygon: Add a Polygon Glyph

Description

Add one polygon per scatterplot point.

Usage

l_glyph_add_polygon(
  widget,
  x,
  y,
  linewidth = 1,
  showArea = TRUE,
  label = "",
  ...
)

Arguments

widget

widget path as a string or as an object handle

x

nested list of x-coordinates of polygons (relative to ), one list element for each scatterplot point.

y

nested list of y-coordinates of polygons, one list element for each scatterplot point.

linewidth

linewidth of outline.

showArea

boolean, show a filled polygon or just the outline

label

label of a glyph (currently shown only in the glyph inspector)

...

state arguments

Details

A polygon can be a useful point glyph to visualize arbitrary shapes such as airplanes, animals and shapes that are not available in the primitive glyph types (e.g. cross). The l_glyphs demo has an example of polygon glyphs which we reuse here.
