(so this package can be used with earlier versions of R).
- Adds alt descriptions to images in README and vignette.
oblicubes 0.1.2 (2022-08-27)
Initial features
oblicubesGrob() / grid.oblicubes() renders cubes using a 3D
oblique projection. oblicubesGrob() returns a grid grob object while
grid.oblicubes() also draws the grob to the graphic device. As
a special case may also render a 2D primary view orthographic projection.
Inspired by coolbutuseless's {isocubes} package.geom_oblicubes() provides a {ggplot2} geom wrapper to oblicubesGrob().oblicuboidsGrob() / grid.oblicuboids() renders cuboids using a 3D
oblique projection. oblicuboidsGrob() returns a grid grob object while
grid.oblicuboids() also draws the grob to the graphic device. As
a special case may also render a 2D primary view orthographic projection.
Inspired by cj-holmes's {isocuboids} package.geom_oblicuboids() provides a {ggplot2} geom wrapper to oblicuboidsGrob().xyz_heightmap() calculate x,y,z coordinates (and optionally colors) from a height matrix.
An adaption of coords_heightmap() from coolbutuseless's {isocubes}.darken_face() is a function to darken the color of cube/cuboid faces.
Meant to serve as the light argument of oblicubesGrob(), grid.oblicubes(), oblicuboidsGrob(), grid.oblicuboids().cheap_darken() is a function to darken colors by a certain "amount".
Faster (but less "good") then colorspace::darken().
A copy of an internal function from coolbutuseless's {isocubes}.
