Hi there,
I plot a simple plot with the following code:
plot (rnorm(1:10), type = "b")
legend("top", "test", lty = 1, pch = 21)
The result is something wired for the line crosses the point in the
legend while the line does not cross the point in the main plot.
Is there possibility to draw the legend that line does not cross the
point, i.e., like the pattern in the main plot?
Any help is really appreciated.
Best regards,
Jinsong
Hi,
May be this helps.
set.seed(55)
?x<-rnorm(1:10)
?plot(x,type="n",xaxt="n",yaxt="n")
?legend1<- legend("top","test",lty=1,pch=21)
range1<- range(x)
?range1[2]<- 1.05* (range1[2]+ legend1$rect$h)
?plot(x,ylim=range1,type="b")
?legend1<- legend("top","test",lty=1,pch=21)
A.K.
