...ual. In an attempt to figure out what went wrong I ran "R CMD INSTALL --build" and had a look a the file "akmisc" that had been installed in the "akmisc/R" folder in my default library. The contents of the file ended in (the function stuff was only for testing) "plotSymbols" <- function (fn=1) { ## Originally by Henrik Bengtsson ## modified by Rolf Turner ## Posted on R-Help 3 Feb 05 i <- 0:255 ncol <- 16 opar <- par(cex.axis = 0.7, mar = c(3, 3, 3, 3) + 0.1) plot(i%%ncol, 1 + i%/%ncol, pch=i, font=fn, xlab = "", ylab =...

Hi, Very so often when i am plotting something, doing a histogram, or whatever i am struggling to find out which are the numbers for different colors, palette names, types of lines, symbols, etc. Is there any documentation on line with all these numbers / names and the associated symbol / color??? For example if i am using the command image it uses a palette from red to yellow, with red the

In an elderly version of ``plotSymbols'' (now in the cwhmisc package) that I had lying around, there was the example plot(1:10,xlab="\374") which the comments said would give a u-umlaut as the x-axis label. When I execute this plot (a) I get no x-axis label at all, and (b) the plot ``freezes'' in that f...

dear R wizards: is it possible to use a postscript font symbol as a plot symbol? in particular, I want to use the four postscript symbols for playing cards (club, heart, spade, diamond) as points. In LaTeX, these four are \Pisymbol{psy}{"A7} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A8} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A9} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A10} and what I would love to do is place them, at say, (x=1,y=1),

...ts that were too small. I said I had been using par(cex=2), but the advice was to use pointsize. I have tried ps, is that what was meant? par(ps=40) x<-rnorm(100) y<-rnorm(100) dev.print(file="~/junk.ps", horizontal=FALSE) No matter how big I make ps (40,60...), the biggest size plotsymbol I get is a circle with a diameter of 2 mm. Is there a way to get big axis labels and plot symbols using par(ps=)? Or was something else meant when I was told to use pointsize? Thanks very much for any help.

Is there any effective way to get distinct geometric plotting symbols and colors for plots involving more than 25 groups? Thanks. Dr. Marc R.
