R help - Nov 2009 - Adjusting Yaxis (ylim) limits on a plotMeans(DV, IV1, IV2, error.bars="se")

Hello everyone,

I have tried to look for this everywhere and so far have no luck.  I have a
plotMeans(DV, IV1, IV2, error.bars="se") graph that plots my data
(DV-continuous, IVs are factors, IV1 - two levels, IV2-four levels).  I am
trying to increase a scale of my y-axis (to be consistent with my other
graphs), but unfortunately nothing works with "plotMeans" function,
which is
the only one I see so fat to plot what I need.  Could anyone provide any
suggestions or advice?

Thank you.

Hi Sergey

I've attached a script with a ylim argument added to plotMeans.

If you are using Rcmdr, you can load this script via the Rcmdr File menu item
File
  Open Script File

so save this plotMeans.R script somewhere,
and load it and run it in Rcmdr, then
do your plot command
 plotMeans(DV, IV1, IV2, error.bars="se", ylim = c(27, 99)) 
or whatever your desired ylim values are.
