GUI for the Factor Loading Plot

Description

Starts the graphical user interface for the function factplotDAS, which is executed to produce a factor loading plot when the OK button is clicked.

Usage

## DAS+R GUI:
Check the 'Factor Loading Plot' box in the FA dialog.

## R Function Usage:
FactplotGUI(objName, selectFrame = FALSE)

Arguments

objName The name of an object of class "factanal" as a character string.
selectFrame A logical value. If TRUE and a worksheet is currently open, a dialog element asking for the frame to plot in is shown at the bottom of the dialog.

Dialog Elements

Title
Entry field for the plot title.
Details
Click this radiobutton to open a dialog where further details on the title and the lines at +/- 0.5 on the y-axis can be specified.
Variables Details
For each factor, the factor loadings of the different variables are plotted. The variable names are thereby used as labels. Lines at +/- 0.5 on the y-axis help to distinguish the important from the less important variables.
Plot only variables...
Enter the critical value for plotting variables. Only variables with absolute values of the factor loadings larger than the critical value will be plotted.
Color
The color to be used for the variable labels can be selected in two ways: either use the drop-down list, which contains all colors of the currently used color menu, or click on the radiobutton on the right to open the Select Color dialog, and select the color there.
Label Size
Entry field for the size for the variable labels.
Frame of the worksheet to plot in
Unless a worksheet is open, this dialog element is not shown. It allows selecting the frame of the worksheet to plot in from a drop-down list.
Default
Resets all the dialog elements to their default values.
OK
Closes the dialog and executes factplot to produce the plot.
Cancel
Closes the dialog without executing factplot.
Help
Shows this help file.

Side Effects

A plot is produced on the current graphics device.
