Hi, I am using axis() to plot axis 1 and axis 2. but now when I used axis(side=1,....) and axis(side=2,.....), there's a big margin between these two axis. does anybody have any idea about how to shrink the margin between these two axis. basically, I want to move axis 1 left so that when I plot axis 3, the margin...

...ar list: I would like to override the default way R formats plot axes with a custom method(s). Obviously I would prefer to define it as general as possible avoiding writing a custom method for each individual class where possible. The plot.default method (and I assume other methods as well) calls Axis(...) to produce the axis layout depending on data. In this sense it seems reasonable to (re)define Axis methods rather than change plot methods (which are impossible to control as there can be too many custom ones). Now my question is how can I redefine Axis that it is automatically called by plot...

Following my previous post on S3 method despatch, I put debug messages in the code of Axis, Axis.default and plot.default in graphics/R/axis.R and graphics/R/plot.R to print the class of x, at and y on plot. After recompiling R, what I see is that x *lost* its class attribute (at least for classes not known to 'graphics') in Axis, called directly from plot.default and this could...

Dear list, why does the distance between the axis labels and the tick marks looks different for x axis and y axis in the plot (see code below). In fact, the x axis labels look furthest from the tickmarks than in the y axis. How can I make them look the same? par(mfrow=c(1,1), cex.axis = 0.5, cex.lab = 0.5) plot(1,1, axes = F) axis(1) axis(2) Th...

I would like to draw only the ticks of an axis, but not the axis itself. I don't think this can be done using axis(), so I am trying to write a cut-down version in R, which only draws ticks. The point at which I am stuck is that the length of a tick is set by par("tcl") as a fraction of the "height of a line of text". S...

Hi, Just find a scaling factor that would make the two sets of data comparable. Here I divided the second row by 5 and did the same for the second axis. Charles-?douard F1 <- as.table(matrix(c(50,11,6,17,16,3,1,2237,611,403,240,280,0,0), 2,7)) barplot(F1, beside = TRUE, col = c("blue", "grey")) axis(2, at=c(0,10,20,30,40,50,60, labels=c(0,10,20,30,40,50,60))) axis(4, at = c(0,500,1000,1500,2000,2500), labels = c(0,500,1000,...

In ggplot2, I would like to make a boxplot that has the following properties: (1) Contrary to default, the meaningful axis should be the horizontal axis. Lattice does this, for instance, by library(lattice);bwplot(~mtcars$mpg) (2) It is *univariate*, i.e., of a single vector, say mtcars$mpg. I do not wish to make separate plots for the different values of mtcars$cyl. (3) Nothing on the meaningless axis--the axis t...

Dear all I try to format labels on axis as standard ones does not look well, but I am not able to make axis.POSIXct to work. here is an example x<-seq(as.Date("2008-1-1"), as.Date("2009-9-6"), by="2 months") y<-rnorm(11) plot(x,y) #not very sophisticated axis plot(x,y, axes=F) axis(2) axis.POSIXct(1...

Dear Charles-Edouard Thanks a lot. Yes indeed barplot sounds excellent. Unfortunately, the scale of the smaller axis is fixed, even If I am able to draw to axes. The idea is to expand the scale to the scale to the second axis for comparison. F1 <- as.table(matrix(c(50,11,6,17,16,3,1,2237,611,403,240,280,0,0), 2,7)) barplot(F1, beside = TRUE, col = c("blue", "grey")) axis(2, at=c(0,10,20,...

Dear List, I have a richness data distributing across 20 N to 20 S latitude. (120 E-140 E longitude). I would like to draw the richness in the north hemisphere and a regression line in the plot (x-axis: latitude, y-axis: richness in the north hemisphere). The above demand is done using plot. Then, south hemisphere richness and regression are required to be generated using the same y-axis above but an x-axis on the left side of the y-axis. (The higher latitude in the south hemisphere, the left it...

Jim, Thank you very much! How do I use the axis command for side=1 to label the x horizontal axis, in the format="%Y-%m-%d? style? Greg y_duration <- c (301.59050, 387.35700, 365.64366, 317.26150, 321.71883, 342.44950, 318.95350, 322.33233, 330.60333, 428.99516, 297.82066, 258.23166) x_yyyymmdd <-as.Date(c ("2018-04-2...

Hi, How can I make the distance between an axis-label and the axis bigger? I haven't found anything in par()...

Hi is there an alternative to par(new), for ading data to a plot for a different y-axis? My problem with par(new=TRUE) is, that it re-defines all axis and labels (as in example 1) and one has to use xlim=... to fix the x-axis. I am looking for something, which simply resets the y-axis, so that a new plot() (or points()/lines()) keeps the x-axis, but re-defines the y-axis. Is there so...

Hi, i am working on bar plot but i need to generate y axis for horizontal bar plot. In the attached diagram x-axis is there with scale 0 to 12 but i need y axis. How can i implement it? http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4630478/barplot2.jpg Thanks -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-create-axis-y-axis-for-horizonta...

Dear list, I am looking for a possibility to present results in a more graphical way by adding an axis. But I have trouble relating my data to the added axis. Imagine the following example: a <- c(10, 20, 30, 40) b <- c(50, 250, 500, 600) ba <- b/a par(las=1, mar=c(5,5,.5,5)) plot(a,b, type="b", pch=22, cex=2, col=4, lwd=2, ylim=c(0,650), xlim=c(0,45)) axis(4, at=c(seq(0...

Dear R-help, I recently upgraded from R 2.13.1 to R 2.14.2 and now get warning messages when plotting after using x11(). Example: > plot(rnorm(10)) ### no warnings > x11(); plot(rnorm(10)) Warning messages: 1: In axis(side = side, at = at, labels = labels, ...) : Font family not found in Windows font database 2: In axis(side = side, at = at, labels = labels, ...) : Font family not found in Windows font database 3: In axis(side = side, at = at, labels = labels, ...) : Font family not found in Windows font d...

Hi, I don't know the axis mecanism well enough in ggplot but using the original barplot function you can add an axis on the right using the axis function. Here is an example: test <- as.table(matrix(c(2,10,3,11), 2,2)) barplot(test, beside = TRUE, col = scales::brewer_pal(palette = 1)(2)) axis(4, at = c(0, 5, 10), la...

Hi there, I'm a bit confused concerning the axis tck setting in the lattice package as the ticks on left sided axis aren't drawn at all with the following setting: dados <- data.frame(varsep = factor(rep(1:2,10)), i = runif(20)) library(lattice) my.theme <- list( axis.components = list(left = list(tck = 1,...
