similar to: Organising tick-marks in plot()

Hi there, I guess this must be a standard issue, but I'm starting to go crazy with it. I simply want a plot with the x axis being logarithmic, having labels 1, 10, 100..., and ten unlabelled ticks between each of them - just as they introduce logarithmic axis at school. I've played around a bit with log="x", xlog=T (where exactly is the difference here?), xaxp, and xaxt

Dear R-list, I am having trouble getting the Plot function to set the tick marks the way I want, and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Below is the code that I wrote, and I am not sure why it doesn't work. p is a vector of length 2198, containing numbers between 0 and 240. q is a vector of ones, the same length as p. I want the x-axis to have tick marks every 30 min and I want the

Hello, I am a new user. I would like to know if it is possible with R to fix the position of ticks. for example for my plot I obtained automatically the positions 200,400,600,800 and 1000 on x axis and so a scale of 200 But I would like to obtain 100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900,100 so a scale of 100. Which fonction can help me to do so? thank you meriema

I'm trying to find a way to force all the x-axis tick labels to plot, regardless whether or not they overlap or look pretty. V is a factor with, say, 4 levels. A call to plot(V) gives a histogram-like plot, one bar for each level in V. The problem is that all the label names may not be plotted because some of the names are lengthy and would tend to overlap if plotted. I don't care

Hi, A few times I tried to control the number and position of tick marks in plots with the yasp or xasp parameters. For example, a y axis was drawn by default with tick marks at 0, 20, 40, 80 and 100. I tried to get tick marks every 10 by adding yasp=(0, 100, 10) but this had no effect at all. I know I can draw the axis and tick marks manually, but often this simple option would suffice

Dear expeRts, how can I decrease the space between the tick marks and the corresponding labels in an splom? See here: library(lattice) U <- matrix(runif(4000), ncol = 8) splom(U, axis.text.cex = 0.2) # => space between the [small] tick labels and tick marks is/seems to be too large I checked ?panel.pairs but could not find an option for that. Cheers, Marius

While writing a function that includes placing grid lines at the same position as the axis ticks, I found that the axis* functions don't return anything. Thus I have had to copy the appropriate function, removing the call to axis() and adding a line to return the tick positions. Is there a more elegant way to determine the tick positions on an axis? Thanks. Jim (normally bitwrit at

Running R 1.2.3, Windows 98 I checked the archives, and I couldn't find anything pertaining to this: How do I control format (scientific notation versus decimal, e.g.) on tick labels?

Hello, I'm new to R, and I'm trying to set the number of tickmarks for a plot using xaxp, but R seems to ignore this setting completely. Maybe you've an idea what I'm doing wrong. I'm using R 1.4.1, and here's hat I'm doing: > d[,'seq'] [1] 28913 16323 13922 6237 4257 3881 4100 3781 2694 2064 1769 1550 [13] 1539 480 >

hello, all my attempts to get a plot with tick marks on both sides of axis failed - can someone please help me with this? thanks, kay ----- ------------------------ Kay Cichini Postgraduate student Institute of Botany Univ. of Innsbruck ------------------------ -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/tick-marks-on-both-sides-of-axis-tp2336668p2336668.html Sent from the

Hi, I wish to create a series of plots with the same x-axis range and the same placement of tick marks. In addition I want to force the tick marks to be at specific locations. For example, if I wish to have an x-axis which goes from 40 to 110, with tick marks at 40, 50, 60, ... , How can I accomplish that? The various parameters I have tried changing just seem to be suggestions for

Hi, I would like to use xyplot to create a figure. Unfortunately, I cannot find documentation in xyplot to specify alternating the x-axis tick labels with the x-axis tick marks. I can do this with the regular R plot function as follows. #A small version of my data looks like this data<-data.frame(matrix(ncol=3,nrow=12)) data[,1]<-rep(c(1,2,3),c(4,4,4)) data[,2]<-rep(c(1,2,3,4),3)

If I only want axis labels on the left and bottom I can set alternating=F like in the following example: Depth <- equal.count(quakes$depth, number=8, overlap=.1) xyplot(lat ~ long | Depth, data = quakes, scales=list(alternating=F) I also would like to get rid of the unlabeled tick marks (top and right). How can I do that? cu Philipp -- Dr. Philipp Pagel Lehrstuhl f?r Genomorientierte

Hi! Probably a simple question, but I can't get any tick marks in the 3d scatterplot I created using the cloud function. The following works to display the three groups using different symbols: data(iris) cloud(Sepal.Length ~ Petal.Length * Petal.Width, data = iris, cex = 1.2, groups = Species, pch = c(16,1,1), col = c("black","black","red"), subpanel =

Is there a way to show also the intermediate tick marks without the values? Example: plot(cars) What would one do to show the tick marks in, say, gray color at the increment of 1 without showing the actual values in-between the default x values: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25? platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 2 minor 2.1 year 2005 month

I posted several months about the problem with adding tick marks to curves using lines.survfit. This occurs when lines.survfit is used to add a curve to survival curves plotted with plot.survfit. The help for this function implies that mark.time=TRUE thus: plot(pfsfit,conf.int=FALSE,xscale=365.25,yscale=100,xlab="Years",ylab="% surviving",lty=2,mark=3)

I've been trying to figure out a parameter that will let you separately adjust the parameters for the axis line from the tick mark. In the following example, I would like to suppress the axis line, but keep the tick marks. Thanks, Andrew foo <- data.frame(x=1:3, y=4:6) plot(foo$x, foo$y, type="n", axes=F) points(foo$x, foo$y) axis(side=1, at=foo$x, lty=0) #would like to figure

Sorry, I have read other posts on tick marks but nothing is working. Here is my R code. I was able to turn off the x axis at one point (I removed that code), but never got the tick marks on by 20s. It always goes to the default of 50, 100, 150, 200. Thanks. R code: hist(OMY$FL, main = "2010 Oncorhynchus mykiss Fork Length Frequencies at Buck Creek Reach 1", include.lowest = TRUE,

Hello, I think I found a bug: > windows(1,width = 10, height = 10, pointsize = 5,xpos = 0, ypos = 0 ) > hdata[1:3,1] <- c(1,10,15) > hdata[1:3,2] <- c(2,1,4) > plot(hdata[,1],hdata[,2],xaxt="n") > axis(1,at=c(2,10,14)) > minor.tick(nx=2, ny=1,tick.ratio=1) the minor tick marks appear between the tick marks which would have been drawn without the option
