R help - Jul 2004 - help on R "plot"

Hi:
   I have a question about the R plot, I change the size of the y axis label
from 1 to 2, but part of the word is missing as being cut. So I guess it is over
the boudary of the R graphical setting.
    Would you please help me with it? How to change the boundary so that the
full part of my y axis label will appear?
    Your help is highly appreciated!
sincerely hang

Dear Hang,

Take a look at ?par, and in particular the graphical parameters mar and mai,
which can be used to adjust the size of the margins of a plot.

I hope that this helps.
 John

I am not sure if I understand your question properly but try this 

par(mfrow=c(1,3))
plot(1:10, 1:10, xlab="A very long label here")
plot(1:10, 1:10, xlab="A very long \n label here")
plot(1:10, 1:10, xlab="A very long \n label here", cex.lab=2)

Also have a look at help("par").
