similar to: Normalizing plot tick values

I am displaying several series in one plot, and would like to make them distinct without having to employ a legend. I managed to color tickmarks, but have been unsuccessful with either one of a) making tickmarks thicker (without increasing the axis at the same time). From reading ?axis: lty, lwd: line type, width for the axis line and the tick marks. in would appear that I cannot

Is there an easy way to return the values of the axis tick marks resulting from plot.default? For example, plot(1:1000) would return 0, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000 from the x axis. Thanks, Max --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hello, all my attempts to get a plot with tick marks on both sides of axis failed - can someone please help me with this? thanks, kay ----- ------------------------ Kay Cichini Postgraduate student Institute of Botany Univ. of Innsbruck ------------------------ -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/tick-marks-on-both-sides-of-axis-tp2336668p2336668.html Sent from the

While writing a function that includes placing grid lines at the same position as the axis ticks, I found that the axis* functions don't return anything. Thus I have had to copy the appropriate function, removing the call to axis() and adding a line to return the tick positions. Is there a more elegant way to determine the tick positions on an axis? Thanks. Jim (normally bitwrit at

I'm trying to find a way to force all the x-axis tick labels to plot, regardless whether or not they overlap or look pretty. V is a factor with, say, 4 levels. A call to plot(V) gives a histogram-like plot, one bar for each level in V. The problem is that all the label names may not be plotted because some of the names are lengthy and would tend to overlap if plotted. I don't care

Hi, I'm trying to modify this function.I want to remove the existing xaxis(the tick marks and the values below each tick) and make it dynamic so that i can choose whether i want the xaxis at the top or bottom but i cant seem to change that.can somebody help me? plot.Sample <- function(x,xlab=NULL,ylab=NULL,...){ sampletest <- is.Sample(x,argname="'x' ") if

Hello, I want to know how do R calculates the number of intervals between tick-marks in the y axis in a plot. I'm making a three y-axes plot and this information would help me a lot.

Hi, I need my plot to occupy a thin strip-like area but the plot area in R is a square so when I save it and reduce its height to a strip in my document the font in the graph looks flattened. Is there someway i can do this in R itself?..so that my plot is a strip but the font looks normal -- Rajesh.J [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I using lattice to make some plots and I want to make the y-axis on some of these plots use a log scale. In the following plot: x <- 1:10 y <- 2^x xyplot(log10(y) ~ x) I get tick marks on the y-axis at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0. I would rather have just 3 tick marks at 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 but labeled 10, 100, and 1000. I know this can be done using the "at" and

Hi, I've used the following command in qplot qplot(a$V1,geom="histogram",binwidth=0.15,fill = factor(a$V2),ylab="Frequency",xlab="Rate"); but the title in the legend shows up as factor(a$V2)...how can i change this? -- Rajesh.J [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi everyone, I have a certain requirement and I'm not sure what to do.I need to reduce the spacing between plots in a multiplot. Make them really close together such that they almost touch. Also, I need to add a rectangular strip under my plot(very close to it) such that the strip contains some text describing it. Any help is appreciated -- Rajesh.J [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I built a package in linux and would like to use it in windows. I cant build the package again in windows because it would miss the necessary libraries etc(I'm using Rcpp).

Hi, A few times I tried to control the number and position of tick marks in plots with the yasp or xasp parameters. For example, a y axis was drawn by default with tick marks at 0, 20, 40, 80 and 100. I tried to get tick marks every 10 by adding yasp=(0, 100, 10) but this had no effect at all. I know I can draw the axis and tick marks manually, but often this simple option would suffice

There is still issues with the reversed y-log scale plot: # Test case A: works as expected plot(10:100,log="y",ylim=c(100,11)) grid() par("yaxp") # Test case B: grid does not have horizontal lines; par("yaxp") is different plot(1:100,log="y",ylim=c(100,10)) grid() par("yaxp") In the second test case, axTicks for the horizontal lines (in

When ploting a timeseries, the months are shown with abbreviation in the current language of the system. For example, x <- seq(from=as.Date("2000-04-01"), length.out=100, by=1) y <- rnorm(length(x), 5,2) plot(x, y) Show for me "avi mai jui jul" as I use R with French language localization. I see in the Windows FAQ how to completely change the language of R, but I
