...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 fu...

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),

A while ago there was a thread on graphics. I complained that the plots produced by dev.print had symbols and fonts 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

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