similar to: Legend Text Font Size

HI there, I want to add a legend to a plot using the density and angle argument, so patterns with lines in different angles are used in the plot and should be referred to. When I use default settings, the filled boxes are too small. With the cex argument I can enlarge the whole legend, but then the text gets too big. How could I just increase the size of the single boxes and not the text. I

Hello, I'd like to ask, how to adjust the space between symbol/line and text in a legend. My legend() is build like that legend(xmax-netzdiff/11, # shouldn't matter here ifelse(ydiff>=0, # ymin-6.5*(netzdiff/11), # ymax-netzdiff/11), # c("stehender Stamm","Windwurf",

Hi, I think you are right, legend cannot do it. I have now created my own legend function where I changed only one line and now it works the way I want it to. But I'm not sure if that might not have other side effects. I have the impression that the legend and the title start at the same y-position (try y.intersp=0). Only if y.intersp is big enough, then it leads to a non-overlap of

Full_Name: Daniel Gasser Version: 1.8.1 OS: Win XP Submission from: (NULL) (130.60.20.92) The legend()-Function shows a different behaviour than it did in Version 1.6.1. It plots a black box left of the legend lines on each legend row. In 1.6.1 there was just the line in appropriate color for each row in the legend (i was using exactly the same legend statement and same plot function). My legend

Set the legend position explicitly with x and y values and add xpd = TRUE to the legend call to clip the plot to the figure region and not the plot region (the default). Something like this (you may have to fool around with y.intersp, etc. to allow enough space between the legend lines): plot(c(0,1), c(0,1), type="n") legend(x = .4, y = 1.25, legend=c("", "",

I need to have the maths symbol for >= in the legend, and to substitute threshold variable with its value. Somehow, various attempts weren't successful. Please help. threshold <- 0.5 plot(NA, xlab="", ylab="", main="", axes=F, xlim=c(0,1), ylim=c(0,1), xaxs="i", yaxs="i") legend(x=0, y=1, fill=c("orange", "white",

Dear List, I am trying to get a basic plot to show a continuous range of fill colors. It is probably easiest to demonstrate. I would like a legend like in the following example: Satellite.Palette <-colorRampPalette(c("blue3","cyan","aquamarine","yellow","orange","red")) require(fields) image.plot(volcano, col = Satellite.Palette

Hello everybody, Is it possible to coax legend() into displaying more than one simbol per line in legend? I have a graph like the one attached to this mail; I would like to reorganize the legend in such a way that the duplicate text would be omitted, i.e., the first line would read <square> <triangledown> "increasing frequency" and the second one would read <circle>

What about plot(c(0,1), c(0,1), type="n") legend("top", legend=c("", "a", ""), col=c("blue", "red", "green"), title="test", y.intersp=c(1,-0.4), lwd=1) (in recent versions of R) Best, Uwe On 06.03.2023 11:34, Sigbert Klinke wrote: > Hi, > > I think you are right, legend cannot do

I am creating a CDF plot function more user-friendly than any default r function. Depending upon the bimodality of the data (it is often bimodal), or any other strange data trends, the points can end up gathering in just about any corner of the plot. So, when I add a legend, whether I choose to add it in the bottom right, top left, or wherever, it will sometimes end up putting the legend right

Hi, my MWE is not working as expected: plot(c(0,1), c(0,1), type="n") legend("top", legend=c("", "", "a"), col=c("blue", "red", "green"), title="test", y.intersp=0.2, lwd=1) The lines are not below the title. I want (nearby) lines as in the plot, but below the title. Is there a way to achieve this?

Dan, Another tweak ! If you want the 'legend' to look pretty you can resize it by adding,say, 'cex=0.6' into the legend code; try--- legend("topleft", #inset=-1, legend = do.call("expression", L), bg='white', ncol = 2, pch=c('','','',':',':',':'), x.intersp = 0.4,

i'd like to plot a legend in my diagram. The diagram will be included in a TikZ LaTeX document later. I tried the legend() function, but - it can not find a good place it self where the legend fits and playing around with coordinates and scaling consumes a lot time - standard settings for the text need adjustment (linespacing is quite large and so on) Is there an alternative to

Dear r-help members. I would like to: a) control the margin around my legend box. Unfortunately I did not find an appropriate command under "?legend". The margin around the actual legend is way too wide. There is a lot of unnecessary "empty space" on the right side. b) increase the width of the individual barplots. I saw that this can be obtained with the command

Hi, are there any plans to add a colorbar legend to image()? Or such a possibility already implemented which I just haven't discovered yet. Anyway, I will be willing to spent some time on the implementation if there isn't anyone working on that already.

I could not find a way to specify the border color of the boxes drawn in a legend, so that the legend can match exactly the colors of the actual plot (e.g. in the case of two superimposed histograms which have different shading and different borders). Indeed, the legend function seems to hard code the color "black" for the borders in this call: rect2(left = xt, top = yt +

I am trying to put a legend below some plots as follows: x11() par(mfcol = c(2, 1), mar = c(5.1, 6.1, 4.1, 2.1)) matplot(matrix(1:30,15,2), type="l", lty=1:2) par(mfg = c(2, 1, 2, 1)) legend((par()$usr)[1:2], (par()$usr)[3:4], c("a","b"), lty = 1:2, col=1:2, bty = "y") The letters "a" and "b" print but not the lines. If I omit

Dear R-help members, with the help of one of you the following R-Code was developed. No I have the (probably simple) problem that I want to increase font size of "text" and "ylab" names from 1 to 2. Unfortunately I'm not able to adjust the margin so, that the plot is appers complete (all names readable) on a 8:14 Inch scale plot. Some times I get the error message that

Hello, A bit of fairly simple code, yet I don't seem to be able to manipulate it quite as much as I would like: 1) It would be nice if the objects appearing in the legend were aligned, and by aligned I mean the boxes are centered over the lines. Do I need to adjust the use of "NA" in the code below to accomplish this? Here's how it appears on my machine:

Legend titles work in linear plots: curve(1/x, xlim = c(0, 1)) legend(x = 'topright', inset = 0.04, legend = '1/x', lty = 1, title = 'Legend Title') But when you change to a log plot on either dimension things get screwy: curve(1/x, xlim = c(0, 1), log = 'y') legend(x = 'topright', inset = 0.04, legend = '1/x', lty = 1,
