DESCRIPTION

This glyph draws a light gray equilateral triangle with its base centered on the feature. The top of the equilateral triangle is equal to the specified height. To look good, please choose a height of >= 15.
Inside, the glyph will plot one or more data points using ternary plot conventions (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_plot). The data consists of a series of (A,B,C) triplets chosen such that the range of each component is [0.0,1.0] and A + B + C = 1.0. The left, right and apex of the triangle represent the proportions of A, B and C respectively. As a component approaches 1.0, it gets closer to its corresponding vertex.
The data can be represented as one or more feature tags called "triples" each in the format:
   A1,B1,C1,<color>,<label>   # (color and label are optional)
or as a callback specified by the option -triples, which should return a list of arrays, where each array is a triple, followed by an optional color. E.G.
 sub my_calback {
   my $feature = shift;
   return [[0.1,0.5,0.4,'red','pt1'],[0.2,0.2,0.6,'blue','pt2'],[0.8,0.2,0.0,'green','pt4']];
 }
The color, if it is missing, will be the same as the bgcolor.

OPTIONS

In addition to the common options, the following glyph-specific options are recognized:
  Option      Description 
  ------      -----------
  -triples    The callback to return triple data.
  -vertices   Labels for the left,right & top vertices

BUGS

Please report them.
