R help - Oct 2011 - Giant font on the R plots...

Hello,

I've been facing a really stupid problem... When I try to plot using
heatplot or hclust or any similar function, the labels of the x-axis - which
are the samples names - are giant & overlapping. I can't even read the
samples names!

I tried  cex.lab = 0.5, it helped only with the y axis and not the x-axis...
Any help please?!

R> heatplot
Error: object 'heatplot' not found

R> hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave")
# does not plot anything

So let m try

R> plot(hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave"))
# no x axis

Do you mean the labels at the dendrogram? These are controlled by cex 
(rather than cex.lab).
