developed as the core visualization component for bioinformatics and systems biology analysis.\nIt supports a large number of [visualizations ](https://www.canvasxpress.org/examples.html) to display scientific and non-scientific\ndata. ***canvasXpress*** also includes a simple and unobtrusive [user interface](https://www.canvasxpress.org/docs/interface.html) to explore complex data sets, a sophisticated and unique mechanism to keep track of all user customization for [Reproducible Research ](https://www.canvasxpress.org/docs/audit.html) purposes, as well as an 'out of the box'\nbroadcasting capability to synchronize selected data points in all ***canvasXpress*** plots in a page. Data can\nbe easily sorted, grouped, transposed, transformed or clustered dynamically. The fully customizable mouse events\nas well as the zooming, panning and drag-and-drop capabilities are features that make this library unique in its\nclass.\n\n***canvasXpress*** can be now simply used within R at the console to generate conventional plots, in R-Studio\nor seamlessly embedded in [Shiny](https://shiny.posit.co) web applications. Full-fledged examples of the ***canvasXpress*** library including the mouse events, zooming, and broadcasting capabilities are included in this package in several examples that can be accessed using the cxShinyExample function.  This ***canvasXpress*** R library was created with the [htmlwidgets](https://github.com/ramnathv/htmlwidgets) package.\n\n### Installation\n\ncanvasXpress is available for installation from \n[CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=canvasXpress) or you can install the\nlatest version of ***canvasXpress*** from GitHub as follows:\n\n```r\ndevtools::install_github('neuhausi/canvasXpress')\n```\n\n### Examples\n\nThese are included to get you started on basic charting - there are many more\nexamples (including complex and compound visualizations) with R code available \nin the Examples section of the main website at \n[https://www.canvasxpress.org](https://www.canvasxpress.org)\n\n#### Scatter 3D Plot\n\n```r\ny
