Define the plotting area of an igraph plot - r

I'm trying to plot igraph objects for which I have set the xy coordinates.
It's been working fine, but when the plot is produced it is stretched in either the x or y so the network looks distorted.
Does anyone know a way that I can define the plotting area (i.e. tell igraph that I want it to plot on a square of set dimensions)? Or any other way of avoiding this problem?

Plotting three-dimensional vector field as coherent structures using Matlab

I have a three-dimensional vectorfield containing of coherent structures in the form of counter-rotating circles.
I would like to show these structures three-dimensionally.
So far I have used contour() in order to plot the strucutres on the y,z plane as shown in the figure below, where circles of constant magnitude are plotted.
Now I would like to plot these circles three-dimensionally, this would result in the circles being tilted in the direction of the viewer as one can see from the next plot.
How would I be able to plot such three-dimensional strucutres, where the circles are tilted in the direction of the viewer?
Functions as isosurface() do not seem to help.
I would very much appreciate any kind of help.
I have tried various functions such as isosurface(), quiver3() and streamtube() however I am not able to show the plot I am interested in: a single slice of circles being tilted in the direction of the viewer shown in a three-dimensional plot.

Cicular contour map using Plotly

I am trying to create contour plots of film thicknesses on a wafer using plotly, but would like the outputted plot to be a circle since it is a wafer instead of the default square. Do I have to somehow overlay a circle on to the plot and then exclude anything outside of it after the plot is generated? I prefer using plotly if possible since it looks nice. I've tried using ggplot as well but for some reason my data doesn't work with it since the x and y coordinates are apparently irregularly spaced. I've searched around but have not seen any results at least using R.
Thanks!

cluster: :clusplot axis in wrong direction

I'm trying to plot the cluster obtained from fuzzy c-means clustering.
The plot should look like this.
code for the plot
plot(data$Longitude, data$Latitude, main="Fuzzy C-Means",col=data$Revised, pch=16, cex=.6,
xlab="Longitude",ylab="Latitude")
library(maps)
map("state", add=T)
However, when I tried to use clusplot the plot is displaying in opposite direction(both top and bottom and left and right) as below.
I wanna know if there's a way to reverse the plot to show in the order as the above picture.
Also, for the very dense area, it's hard to find the ellipse label. I wanna know if there's a way to show the label inside the ellipse instead of outside.
code for 2nd pic
library(cluster)
clusplot(cbind(Geocode$Longitude, Geocode$Latitude), cluster, color=TRUE,shade=TRUE,
labels=4, lines=0,col.p=cluster,
xlab="Longitude",ylab="Latitude",cex=1)
clusplot is a function that performs a lot of magic for you. In particular it projects the data set - which happens in a way you don't like, unfortunately. (Also note the scales - it centered and scaled the data, too)
clusplot.default: Creates a bivariate plot visualizing a partition (clustering) of the data. All observation are represented by points in the plot, using principal components or multidimensional scaling.
As far as I can tell, clusplot doesn't have map support, but you will want such a map I guess...
While maybe you can use the s.x.2d parameter to specify the exact projection (and this way disable automatic scaling), it probably is still difficult to add the map. Maybe look at the source of clusplot instead, and take only the parts you want?

R non gridded filled contour

I have a set of data that I'm trying to create a surface plot of. I have an x,y point and a to colour by.
I can create a xy plot with the points coloured but I can't find a way to create a surface plot with my data. The data isn't on a normal grid and I would prefer to not normalize it if possible (or I could just use a very fine grid).
The data won't be outside the a radius=1 circle so this part would need to be blank.
The code and the plot is shown below.
I've tried using contour, filled.contour as well as surface3d (not what I wanted). I'm not real familiar with many packages in R so I'm not even sure where to begin looking for this info.
Any help in creating this plot would be appreciated.
thanks,
Gordon
dip<-data.frame(dip=seq(0,90,10))
ddr<-data.frame(ddr=seq(0,350,10))
a<-merge(dip,ddr)
a$colour<-hsv(h=runif(nrow(a)))
degrees.to.radians<-function(degrees){
radians=degrees*pi/180
radians
}
a$equal_angle_x<-sin(degrees.to.radians(a$ddr))*tan(degrees.to.radians((90-a$dip)/2))
a$equal_angle_y<-cos(degrees.to.radians(a$ddr))*tan(degrees.to.radians((90-a$dip)/2))
plot(a$equal_angle_x,a$equal_angle_y,col=a$colour,lwd=10)
With regards to the plot I was trying to create is below. I believe the link in the first comment should get me where I'm trying to go.

Simple Contour map

I just discovered ggmap and I've been playing around with plotting earthquake data from the USGS. I get the data in the form of Lat and Lon, depth and magnitude. I can easily plot the earthquakes as points with different colors based on depth but what I would like to do is take that depth data (just a single number) and generate contours to overlay on the map.
This seems like it should be MUCH more simple than the "Houston Crime" example I keep coming up on since I'm not doing any statistical "density" calculation or anything like that. Basically it's just a contour map on top of the google map of an area.
How do I do this (Presumably) simple, simple thing?
Thanks!
The problem of plotting a 3D surface using only a small sample of unequally spaced lat/long points and a height z (or equivalent) variable is non-trivial -- you have to estimate the values of z for all of the lat-long grid coordinates you do not have, for example using loess() or kriging to create a smooth surface.
Take a look at Methods for doing heatmaps, level / contour plots, and hexagonal binning, case #5. For a geoR example see http://www4.stat.ncsu.edu/~reich/CUSP/Ordinary_Kriging_in_R.pdf
