Another option that is in developement, but may do what you want is
ggvis (http://ggvis.rstudio.com/).? I have seen an example of brushing
created with ggvis that can then be embedded in a web page.? I am not
sure if you can send the html and support files directly to someone
without R (probably Rstudio) or if you need to upload it to a server
for others to see, but the later is still an option for collaborators
who do not have R installed.

Thank you very much, Greg and Ramnath, for the pointers!? I'll explore more.

There are plugins for rCharts that help you create custom charts.

Here is a scatterplot matrix example

It doesn't support brushing, but I think it won't be hard adding that behavior if you contact its author.

Hope this helps.

Best,
Ramnath

There is the TkBrush function in the TeachingDemos package that gives
brushing in a scatterplot matrix using a Tk interface rather than
ggobi.? There is also the iplots package which allows you to create
multiple scatterplots, histograms, boxplots, barcharts, etc. and
points selected in any one of the plots will then be highlighted in
all the others.? Both of those solutions require R to be installed.

I don't know of any way to get what you want without installing at
least one of ggobi or R (or some other program of similar complexity
to install).

hi list,

I'm comparing the changes of ~100 analytes in multiple treatment conditions.? I plotted them in several different xy scattter plots.? It would be nice if I mouse over one point on one scatter plot, the label of the analyte on that scatter plot AS WELL AS on all other scatter plots will be automatically shown.? I know brushing in rggobi does this, but its interface is not good and it needs R or ggobi to run (I want send the results to the collaborators and let them to play with it without the need of installing R or ggobi on their machine).? rCharts is nice but so far it can only create one scatter plot at a time.

Any good suggestions?

Many thanks!

Tao
