i'm doing a bar plot and there are 16 column variables. is there a way to make the variable names go down instead of across when you do the barplot ? because the names are so long, the barplot just shows 3 names and leaves the rest out. if i could rotate the names 90 degrees, it would probably fit a lot more. or maybe i can use space to make the horizontal width longer ? I looed up ?barlot but i'm not sure. when 1st and 2nd are on the bottom, things look fine but i'm not as interesed in those 2 barplots. i didn't use any special options. i just did barplot(probsignmatrix) barplot(t(probsignmatrix)) barplot(probsignmatrix,beside=T) barplot(t(probsignmatrix),beside=T) i put probsignmatrix below in case someone wants to see what i mean because it may not be clear. i don't expect anyone to type it in but rounding would still show what i mean. thanks a lot. pppppcount pmpppcount pmmppcount pmmmpcount pmmmmcount ppppmcount pppmmcount ppmmmcount ppmppcount ppmmpcount pppmpcount ppmpmcount pmpmpcount pmpmmcount pmmpmcount pmppmcount 1st 0.03477157 0.02842640 0.03157360 0.03365482 0.04010152 0.03553299 0.03989848 0.04182741 0.02817259 0.03203046 0.02781726 0.02218274 0.01771574 0.02289340 0.02583756 0.02390863 2nd 0.04648895 0.02901495 0.03092490 0.03064044 0.04108420 0.03998700 0.03958062 0.04059655 0.03039662 0.03027471 0.02901495 0.02170026 0.01601105 0.02287874 0.02165962 0.02267555 -------------------------------------------------------- This is not an offer (or solicitation of an offer) to buy/sell the securities/instruments mentioned or an official confirmation.
