R help - May 2011 - Plotting n a scale up to 6 decimal places

Dear All,

I am trying to plot some element of the below lists which contains 10,000
rows. For instance lfdr_true on  x-axis vs hi and and I also include
estimates as points on the plot.

However, as you can notice the real difference comes in the later decimal
places and not in the first 2 to 3 decimal places. Can someone suggest  how
to expand the scale to 6 places of decimals?

 head(all_simulated_samples[[1]])

 gene     lower                hi               estimate   covered
lfdr_true
1            0                0.9999962      0.9913568    TRUE
0.9564683
2            0                0.9999999      0.9965426    TRUE
0.9184360
3            0                0.9999997      0.9941567    TRUE
0.9783095
4            0                0.9999990      0.9949874    TRUE
0.9342528
5            0                0.9999971      0.9943081    TRUE
0.9053046
6            0                0.9999921      0.9854756    TRUE
0.9927538

Following is the format of code I am using after extracting some values from
list:
x1<-min(lfdr.true)
x2<-max(lfdr.true)
plot(lfdr.true, original.estimate, pch=19, col = "dark red",xlim =
c(x1,x2))
points(upper.limit, pch=24, col = "dark green")

However, it doesn''t help in differentiating the points I am plotting as
they
are so close upto first two decimal places.

I would really appreciate any suggestions or comments.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Tasneem

The plot works fine for me with the example data you have given. Maybe
it is something in your par settings. Try putting a ylim in your plot
the same as you have done for the xlim:

y1<-min(original.estimate)
y2<-max(original.estimate)
plot(lfdr.true, original.estimate, pch=19, col = "dark red",xlim
c(x1,x2),ylim=c(y1,y2))
