HI there, Well, I am stuck again. How do I turn off axis annotation? Oh, and thanks to Peter Dalgaard for his help with my last question. I have an observation that others there may find interesting. In the windows implementation of R, the tck option of par() does not seem to operate as the reference manual indicates. Apparently the length of ticks using this option is supposed to be "a fraction of the smaller of the width or height of the plotting region", when in fact it does not produce this result at all.... I think that it is producing ticks on the y axis that are a fraction of the width, while the ticks on the x-axis are the same fraction, but this time of the height. Not a lot of use, but if you are interested, in trying this sort of thing, use tcl instead...it appears to work nicely.

In order to get help on plots you need to do BOTH
?plot
and
?par
Many par arguments can be used as plot arguments. Not all of them though.
I never had a clear explanation of this.
So if you do ?par you will see
ann: If set to `FALSE', high-level plotting functions do not
annotate the plots they produce with axis and overall titles.
The default is to do annotation.
And so you do
plot(x,y,ann=FALSE)
This leaves off the x and y titles. You still have the numerical labels
next to each tick.
If you want a lot of control you can do
plot(x,y,ann=FALSE,axes=FALSE)
box()
axis(side=1,labels=TRUE)
axis(side=2,labels=TRUE)
mtext("Y", side=2, line=2)
mtext("X", side=1, line=2)
You might want to do ?axis

Thanks for that reply Andy, I suppose the other element of the puzzle that I am after, is how do I switch off the numbers on the xscale, so that an axis appears, and tick marks but no numbers?

Dear R-users, I was doing simulation studies when the R session crashed and gave me the following message: RGUI caused an invalid page fault in module CRTDLL.DLL at 015f:7fc3c9da.

Agus, You write:>I was doing simulation studies when >the R session crashed and gave me >the following message:You might get some pretty short answers to that one. You need to give much more information for everyone to work on. I am not sure if there is an FAQ for this group (I have lost it if there was) but ... generally give: 1. The operating system you are using and the version number and the latest service pack installed, kernel version, &c. 2. The parameters used to start R. 3. Brief machine details (how much memory, processor). 4. The R command or code that caused the problem with a sample of data if applicable. Otherwise there is nothing for anyone to go on. BTW - I am sure that you will be told that there are later versions of R which fix some bugs and add some good stuff.
