R help - Dec 2011 - Hist and extra space

Hi everyone.

I have an histogram like this one:

I would like to remove the extra space under the histogram so it
"touch" the
x axis. Is it possible? Here's my code.

hist(X, freq = F, col = 'gray', axes = FALSE)
abline(v = cyano_euk_min, col = 'red', lty = 3, lw = 2)
abline(v = cyano_euk_max, col = 'red', lty = 3, lw = 2)
axis(1, tck = -0.02)
axis(2, tck = -0.02)
box(bty = 'l')

Regards,
Phil

See ?par and its argument yaxs.

Thank you sire. It worked fine.

I was using the parameter in the hist(...) function. I now use it with par
and it works perfectly.
