R: Plot dendrogram to webpage and view.

d3dendrogram {dendextend} | R Documentation

## Plot dendrogram to webpage and view.

### Description

Plot dendrogram to webpage and view.

### Usage

    d3dendrogram(d, height = 500, width = 700, rightmargin = 200,
      open = TRUE, ...)

### Arguments

`d` | a dendrogram object
`height` | pixels, height of the plot.
`width` | pixels, width of the plot
`rightmargin` | pixels to reserve on the right side for leaf labels.
`open` | open the graphic in a browser? (see details).
`...` | Graphical options, see `d3dendro_options`.

### Details

If `open=TRUE`, the graphic is opened using the function defined by `getOption("viewer")`. If no `viewer` option is specified, `utils::browseURL` is opened. Specifically, in RStudio this means that the viewer is used.

### Value

If `open=TRUE`, a character string containing the html is invisibly retured. If `open=TRUE`, a character string containing the html is returned.

### Tips

Dendrogram plots with many end-nodes tend to get overlapping labels or (end)nodes. If the number of endnodes is not too large, there are several ways to overcome this.

- Decrease font size of the nodes (`node_font`, see `d3dendro_options` on how to specify)

- Decrease size of node radius (`node_radius`, idem)

- Increase the height of the plot. Use about (2 times font height) times count_terminal_nodes(d).

- Plot sub-dendrograms in stead of the whole dendrogram. There's only so much detail a screen can display and your eye can observe. Consider plotting subdendrograms or other summaries when dendrograms have many, many nodes.
