Why is my 3D plot not showing up in R Studio plot viewer?
<p>I normally don't have a problem viewing plots in RStudio (version 1.0.44), but when I try to view a 3D plot created with the "rgl" package, nothing appears in my RStudio plot viewer. </p>

<p>I am able to plot without a problem the plot(cars) scatterplot. </p>

<p>This is the code I am using:</p>

<pre><code>install.packages("rgl")
library(rgl)

plot3d(iris[1:3])  # Nothing appears in RStudio plot viewer

plot(cars)  # The cars scatterplot appears in my RStudio plot viewer
dev.off()
</code></pre>

<p>Any ideas why this might be so and what else I should try? I am not receiving any errors when I run plot3d(iris[1:3]). I checked with head(iris[1:3]) to make sure I was loading in the iris data correctly. I've also tried changing the plot margins:</p>

<pre><code>par(mar=c(4,4,4,4)
</code></pre>

<p>Thank you</p>
