dBscale {seewave} | R Documentation |
This function displays a vertical or horizontal dB colour scale to be used with
spectro
plots.
dBscale(collevels, palette = spectro.colors, side = 4, textlab = "Amplitude\n(dB)", cexlab = 0.75, fontlab = 1, collab = "black", colaxis = "black",...)
collevels |
a set of levels which are used to partition the amplitude range of the spectrogram (in dB). |
palette |
a color palette function to be used to assign colors in
the plot, see |
side |
side of the axis. |
textlab |
text of the label. |
cexlab |
character size of the label. |
fontlab |
font of the label. |
collab |
colour of the label. |
colaxis |
colour of the axis. |

This function, based on filled.contour
by Ross Ihaka,
is not supposed to be used by itself but as a legend of spectro
.
Any colour palette can be used. In particular, it is possible
to use other palettes coming with
seewave: rev.gray.colors.1
, rev.gray.colors.2
,
rev.heat.colors
, rev.terrain.colors
, rev.topo.colors
,
rev.cm.colors
corresponding to the reverse of heat.colors
,
terrain.colors
, topo.colors
, cm.colors
.
