Dear R-users, I have got the following problem. I need to create 4x2 arrays of xyplot's on several pages. The plots are created within a loop and plotted using the print function. It seems that I cannot find the proper grid syntax with my viewports, and the more/newpage arguments. The following script is a simplification but hopefully will suffice to illustrate my problem. Any suggestion

Dear R-users, I am trying to produce (standard and trellis) scatterplots which use the same range of the x and y axes. In addition, I would like the plots to be physically square. Is there one or more specific argument(s) to plot and xyplot what would do that? I have looked at various combinations of asp and pin value, but could not get what I wanted.. Thank you in advance for your help

Dear R-users, For the past few days, I have been trying to find the reason why some of my plots were showing symbols of different sizes, while I thought I was using the same .cex arguments everywhere. The problem is exemplified by the following example code where the xyplot and grid.points functions are used. The scaling factor is set to 0.84 in both the functions settings, but one can see

Dear R-users, I am trying to use the grid.text and expression functions to display several character strings and plotmath text on a viewport. Some strings can include a variable portion (PI.limits in the following example), which I thought could be implemented by combining the bquote and the expression functions. Unfortunately, my expressions do not seem to be evaluated. I would greatly

Dear list, I've written a small utility function to add arbitrary legend(s) to a lattice graph (or a combination of them), much like the legend function of base graphics. I though perhaps it could be useful to someone else, or improved by suggestions. I understand this goes against the lattice paradigm somewhat, in that you short-cut the link between group variables and the

Good afternoon, I am working on a plot that requires custom legends to be placed in some panels of the plot; other panels do not contain legends. The problem that I run into is positioning of the legend in individual panels. In particular, the 'x' and 'y' elements of the key-list are ignored by draw.key() when it is called from inside a panel function. As a result, the legend is

Hi listers, I want to make lattice plots xyplots with the indication of legends inside each panel with only the points and the lines actually ploted inside each given panel according to the group(ing) factor. The code below shows what I have achieved so far and I hope will make clear what I want to have. It seems to me that my solution is a very "dirty hack" and there certainly is

Dear R-users, I have a plot created with the code below. I tried to put some text to the right of the color key. I worked with grid.text and also viewport(), but couldn't achieve this. I know this should be simple, but I just couldn't figure out how to do it. How does this work? Cheers, Marius library(lattice) library(grid) myvec=1:10 data=data.frame(x=myvec,y=myvec)

Dear R-users, As far as I understand, when one defines the width of a rectGrob call using a 'npc' unit, the width of the object is proportional to the width of the current viewport. Is there a way to refer to the height (or width) of the viewport when defining the width (or height) of the rectGrob object? Thanks Sebastien [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi R users The scatterplot (used package R-Cmdr ) obtained has the legend off the plot in the upper left I would like to decide where to put the legend - is that option still available and how do I do it? code: Dataset <- read.table("J:/Pigmatingsb.txt", header=TRUE, sep="\t", na.strings="NA", dec=".", strip.white=TRUE)

Hello, I recently posted a question about my troubles with importing a lattice/trellis figure into latex. To recap, The figure contains 3 scatterplots, so it should have roughly a 1:3 sort of aspect ratio, in order to make each of the scatterplots square. Instead, the whole figure comes out roughly square, so each scatterplot is badly stretched. I fixed this by adding aspect=1/1 to the

Hi all, I'm trying to generate a plot containing a scatterplot, with marginal densityplots for x and y. However, when I try to generate a vertical densityplot, I get the message "warning: can't clip to rotated viewport", and nothing shows up. I'm probably misunderstanding how viewports are meant to be used, so if someone could give me a hint, I'd be most grateful. my

Dear R Users, I am quite surprised to see that mtext gives different results when it is used with 'pairs' and with "plot'. In the two following codes, it seems that the 'at' argument in mtext doesn't consider the same unit system. I would appreciate your comments on this issue. Sebastien ##### Pairs mydata<-data.frame(x=1:10,y=1:10) par(cex.main=1,

Why does the seekViewport at the bottom give an error? > xyplot(Sepal.Length ~ Sepal.Width, iris, group = Species, col = 11:13, + auto.key = TRUE) > grid.ls(view = TRUE) ROOT GRID.rect.89 plot1.toplevel.vp plot1.xlab.vp plot1.xlab 1 plot1.ylab.vp plot1.ylab 1 plot1.strip.1.1.off.vp GRID.segments.90 1 plot1.strip.left.1.1.off.vp

Dear R-users, I am trying to understand what the different padding arguments in trellis.par.set are exactly controlling the space around lattice plots. I have used the following code as a basis for testing but it did not really help me to visualize how the value of each argument changes the margins and the plotting area. I guess a better way to visualize the effects of these padding items

Hello, I am having trouble adding symbols to grid graphics. I am able to create a lattice scatterplot using xyplot, which has a range from -15:15 in both the X and Y directions. However, when I try to add circles and text to this graph using grid.circle() and grid.text(), they are offset using the default npc coordinates. Nothing happens when I pass the parameter default.units="native"

Hello, I created several plot with ggplot2 dev mode. Now I want to combine the plots in a grid e.g. 2x2 with a fixed size of the output. What I am doing at the moment is: grid.newpage() pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(nrow=2, ncol=2, widths = unit(c(7.5,6.5), "cm"), heights = unit(rep(5, 2), "cm")))) print(plot1, vp = viewport(layout.pos.row = 1,

## This example runs in R 2.3.1 and does not run in R 2.4.1. I am ## raising it here for two questions: one on how to debug functions ## inside a namespace, the other on how to control clipping. tmp <- data.frame(x=1:5, y=1:5, a=factor(c(1,1,1,1,1), levels=1:4)) xyplot(y ~ x, data=tmp, ylim=c(1.5,4.5), panel=function(x,y, ...) { cpv <- current.viewport()

Happy New Year to all R users! I have two short questions concerning a xyplot with a color key: 1) How do I properly place (align) the color key beside the xyplot? As you can see from the code listed below, the placement of the color key is not correct. I would like the upper and lower end point of the color key to be perfectly aligned with the upper and lower line of the xyplot. Adjusting

Hello Everyone, I have recently been introduced to the ggplot package by Hadley Wickham and must say I am quite impressed so far at how easy it is to make attractive plots, but one thing I am struggling over is how to consolidate legends. I have 3 plots that I would like to put on a single page and all 3 map the same dimension of the data to the colour aesthetic. Right now, when I plot all
