Dear Sebastian: Here is a snippet of code that you may find interesting for labeling points on the plane: plane1 <- function(x,main1="") { plot(x,main=main1,ylab=" ") zz <- locator() text(zz$x,zz$y, labels=paste("(",round(zz$x,1), ",",round(zz$y,1),")",sep=""), pos=2,cex=.55) invisible() } Hope this helps!
