\name{triax.points}
\alias{triax.points}
\title{Triangle plot points}
\description{
Display points on a triangle plot.
}
\usage{
triax.points(x,show.legend=FALSE,label.points=FALSE,point.labels=NULL,
col.symbols=par("fg"),pch=par("pch"),bg.symbols=par("bg"),cc.axes=FALSE,...)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{Matrix or data frame where each row is three proportions or
percentages that must sum to 1 or 100 respectively.}
\item{show.legend}{Logical - whether to display a legend.}
\item{label.points}{Logical - whether to call \samp{thigmophobe.labels}
to label the points.}
\item{point.labels}{Optional labels for the points and/or legend.}
\item{col.symbols}{Color of the symbols representing each value.}
\item{pch}{Symbols to use in plotting values.}
\item{bg.symbols}{Background color for plotting symbols.}
\item{cc.axes}{Clockwise or counterclockwise axes and ticks.}
\item{...}{Additional arguments passed to \samp{points}.}
}
\details{
In order for \samp{triax.points} to add points to an existing plot,
the argument \samp{no.add} in the initial call to \samp{triax.plot}
must be set to \samp{FALSE}. Failing to do this will result in the
points being plotted in the wrong places. It is then up to the user
to call \samp{par} as in the example below to restore plotting
parameters altered during the triangle plot.
\samp{triax.points} displays each triplet of proportions or percentages
as a symbol on the triangle plot. Unless each triplet sums to 1
(or 100), they will not plot properly and \samp{triax.points} will
complain appropriately.
}
\value{A list of the \samp{x,y} positions plotted.}
