Line with linearly changing thickness – installation issues
I would have imagined that drawing a polygon would be the way most
people would have attempted.
Regarding Murrell's package:
I thought the package name was "vwline". My attempt to install was
unsuccessful>
> devtools::install_github("pmur002/vwline")
Error in utils::download.file(url, path, method = download_method(),
quiet = quiet,? :

Furthermore, I do get the same error from attempting to install
pkg:twine from github.

Dear All, Thanks to Peter for his hint to the lwline package. As a pitty, I have difficulties to get it installed, as it requires https://github.com/Gibbsdavidl/twine which failes for me. install_github("git at github.com:Gibbsdavidl/twine.git") ends with ** building package indices Error in read.table(zfile, header = TRUE, as.is = FALSE) : more columns than column names ERROR: installing package indices failed * removing ?/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/twine? Fehler in i.p(...) : (konvertiert von Warnung) installation of package ?/tmp/RtmpD3exKe/file730c303b4c3/twine_0.1.tar.gz? had non-zero exit status I found hints like https://community.rstudio.com/t/lazydata-failed-for-for-package/4196 and https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2011-March/272829.html that boil down to problems within the data subdir of the project ? but I cannot (and should not) edit the project, can I? Can anybody help me solving the problem? Thank you in advance! Yours, Ferri Gesendet:?Sonntag, 11.

I don't recall whether this has been packaged up, but Paul Murrell talked about it at useR in Brisbane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6FawdEA3W0 -pd

Obviously, the line thicknes can be manipulated with (a constant) cex. But I want the thickness to change linearly from ~a in x to ~b in y. Is there an out of the box solution for this? Thank you in advance! Yours, Ferri
