Hi Alex, After you have created the plot I do not know of a way to zoom (in base graphics), but you can always use the xlim and ylim arguments to focus on a particular area (or effectively zoom) when you are create the plot. For instance, plot(x = 1:10, y = 1:10) plot(x = 1:10, y = 1:10, xlim = c(3, 5), y = c(4, 10)) Cheers, Josh On Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 8:30 AM, Alaios <alaios at yahoo.com> wrote:> in a simple plot.

I think that this would be possible if you save the graph to a scalable
format.

The example code there adjusts xlim and ylim according to mouse movements. It works reasonably well in Windows or the device in the cairoDevice package, and is sometimes acceptable in X11. Other devices don't have the necessary support for it. Duncan Murdoch
For a quick exploration of the plot you can use the zoomplot function in the TeachingDemos package. But for production graphs it is better to explicitly set the xlim and ylim parameters in creating the plot up front. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
