Hi everybody! The characters under the bars in my barplot are to big, so I can't see them all. How can I make them smaller? Thanks! David GRaf --
One possibility is to set the value for the option cex.names to a value less than 1 when you call barplot(). For example, contrast the size of the words 'one', 'two', etc. in b1 and b2.> v <- c('one','two','three','four','five') > t <- table(v) > b1 <- barplot(t) > b1 > b2 <- barplot(t, cex.names=0.5) > b2-Stuart On Tue, 24 Oct 2006, David Graf wrote:> Hi everybody! > > The characters under the bars in my barplot are to big, so I can't see them all.

Use the option cex.names. For example:> tN <- table(Ni <- rpois(100, lambda=5)) > barplot(tN, col=rainbow(20)) > barplot(tN, col=rainbow(20), cex.names=.6)On 24/10/06, David Graf <davidcamino at gmx.ch> wrote:> Hi everybody! > > The characters under the bars in my barplot are to big, so I can't see them all.
