Hello, I'd like to add labels to my plot that include a male or female symbol as subscript. I'm working in Windows Vista and R 3.0.0. I am able to add the male symbol to the plot as regular text (NOT as subscript), e.g. with: mtext("Male\u2642") This displays the word "Male" followed by the male symbol on the plot. But "\u2642" does not work when I try to

Hey, Does anyone know of an equivalent to the LaTeX \perp (perpendicular) symbol for adding to R plots? Parallel is easy enough ("||"), but I haven't been able to find a way of adding perpendicular. The plotmath documentation doesn't mention how to do it, so I'm inclined to think that it doesn't exist - but surely there must be some way of achieving the desired result,

Dear R experts- I'm running R 1.2.3 (2001-04-26) on Linux. I need to get special symbols, such as a circle with a dot in it as used to indicate Solar units in astronomy, into my plot axis labels. How can I do this? Using the R documentation on the Hershey font sets, one can plot a Solar symbol within the world coordinates of a plot like this: >plot(1:10,1:10)

Hello R users, I am new to R, so this may be a very stupid question. I need to subscript the dotted circle (Hershey escape sequence "\\SO") to a string. I tried using text(.5,.5,substitute( R[disk] == 5 R["\\SO"] ) ) but it turns out to be a syntax error. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks Gaetano

I'm trying to label axes using 'expression', but I would also like to change the font to Times New Roman (a requirement of the journal). I'd appreciate any advice. Here's one example of several things that I've tried, including changes to par() parameters 'family', 'font', 'font.axis', and 'font.lab', which are not shown below. x <- 1:10

HI I?aki,? That's interesting.? I may be wrong but I think it's the Symbol font that's got the substitution bug, not Helvetica.? ? fc-match "Symbol" StandardSymbolsPS.t1: "Standard Symbols PS" "Regular" Is what I get, but then in the Evince properties it's telling me that it's substituting Symbol with "Noto Sans Regular", despite the

I wish place the following axis label in such a manner that some of the text is plain and the scientific name is in italics (i.e. a mixture of two font types) Using plot: mtext("Total Landings of Pecten maximus (tonnes)",font,=3, side=2, line=3) makes everything italic, but how do I apply the font change to only "Pecten maximus"?

Hi.. I managed to use expression() for superscripting and subscripting values in my axis labels. However, I notice that the font and style that I had passed through par() are ignored. I used : par(font.lab=2, font=2, family="sans") but when I employ expression() for my xlab, the styling given above is completely ignored. I would greatly appreciate it if someone knew of a method of

Hi all, Could anyone help answer the following questions, please? (I'm using R-1.8.1-4 on Fedora Core 1 and very new to R) (i) Is it possible to specify a font family (e.g. courier or helvetica) when graphing? (ii) How can I make ticks point inwards on all four sides of a plot? Is it possible to have minor and major ticks? (iii) How would I specify a symbol "\sim" (i.e.

Hello, I have seen instructions on how to embed Latex Computer Modern fonts into R, but these are the default serif fonts. I am trying to embed the default font used for Latex beamer (theme Warsaw), which is a sans serif font and may be the default LateX Computer Modern sans serif font. Does anyone know the names of the font files? Thanks Heemun

Readers, According to the documentation for the function 'plotmath' there is no apparent possibility to add the percent sign (%) to a plot function, e.g. plot(a[,1]~b[,2],ylab=expression(x~%),xlab=expression(z)) How to achieve this please? yours, rhelp at conference.jabber.org r251 mandriva2009

Hello, I've been trying to plot a subscript in a text formula using plotmath but I haven't been able to do so. In my example below I would like the text label to show X[min] = 10.1 +/- 5.5 Here is the code: ll <- c(x=10.1, sde=5.5) plot(1:10) text(x=9, y=2, pos=2, expression(paste(X[min], "=", paste(ll, collapse="+/-")))) This works fine up to the inner paste

I want to put the "plus or minus" symbol into a character variable, so that this can be turned into a factor and be displayed in the "strip" of a faceted ggplot2 plot.

Dear R Helpers: I am trying to annotate a plot. The following code snippet works, but it is kind of a kludge since it adds the partial derivative symbols after creating the plotmath frac(). Is there a more elegant way to write a partial derivative? dev.off() plot(NA, xlim=c(-3,3), ylim=c(0,1.6), xlab="", ylab="", tck=-0.015) text(1.6, 1, expression(paste("slope =
