similar to: Multiple plots with one legend

Hi, I have been trying many of the suggested options to place a legend outside plotting area, including something like this: par(xpd=T, oma=par()$oma+c(4.5,0,1.5,0),mar=par()$mar+c(1,0,1,0) But the aspect of the four plots gets compromised when I change the margin settings. I cannot use mtext because I need to use colors for the text. I tried layout, but wouldn't let me include

Dear Users, I already posted this question: it either went unnoticed, or it is to basic (if this is so, please sent me a hint). I would like to know if there is a way to add a common legend to an arrangement of plots. In the example below, I get four plots in my device. each one has a density for 1995 and one for 2006. I have found that using legend or smartlegend I can add a legend to each plot,

Dear R users, I am new to R and I couldn't figure out how to solve the following problem: I am trying to put a legend below two plots using the code below. The legend appears in the second plot, but I want the legend to appear below the two plots in the center of the total chart. At the moment the graphic looks like this: http://i48.tinypic.com/2h2fvhf.jpg [code] layout(matrix(1:2, nrow=1))

Dear List, I am trying to plot a color.legend() in the right outer margin of my device region. I have read multiple threads on the subject and still can't get it right. I have stolen an example from one of the threads to demonstrate my problem. I have extended the outer margin using par(oma()), and have used par(xpd=NA) to tell it to plot in the device region. I can get the legend to plot

Hi guys, I use R 2.6.2 and Windows XP. I’ve got the following question: I wrote a lot of text into the margin of a plot. When I use the “jpeg”-function, only a little part of the margin text is displayed in the final jpeg? Any ideas to change it? Source-Code: datenbankdaten<-data.frame(LETTERS[1:20],

Dear R users, I'm making multiple plots within the same pdf page (par(mfcol = c(5,1)), and want a legend for this at the bottom of all the plots. From previous mails it has been suggested to use par(xpd=TRUE), increase the margin at the last plot, and then draw the legend. However, when I do this, the last plot gets smaller with the same amount I increase the margin with. The problem seems to

My question is based on an example provided in the following: Referencing: Statistics with R Vincent Zoonekynd <zoonek at math.jussieu.fr> 6th January 2007 URL: http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html data(HairEyeColor) a <- as.table( apply(HairEyeColor, c(1,2), sum) ) # Provided Example barplot(a, beside = TRUE, legend.text = attr(a, "dimnames")$Hair) # I

Dear helpers, I'm using a R script on several different datasets, which makes that axis scales may vary quite a lot from dataset to dataset. So what I'm looking for now, is how to automagically find out how to position the legend (horizontal) in the space below the x-axis title, and how to make sure that the legend is within the limits of the lower inner or outer margin? I'm aware of

Hi R People: Here is a simple set of commands: >x1 <- 1:10 >x2 <- sqrt(x1) >plot(x1) >points(x2,col="red",pch=3) >legend(2,8,legend=c("First","Second"),col=c("black","red"),pch=c(1,3)) > Fine. Now, I would like to put the legend box on the outside of the plot itself, perhaps in the lower left hand corner. I've been

Hello! I have created a plot and would like to put a legend in the top left corner (above and left of plotting region), but non of the functions can plot there (I tried 'legend', 'text', 'points', 'lines', 'mtext', 'axes',...). I would be very grateful if someone could help me put something in that corrner, with any fuction. Thanks, Ales Ziberna

Is there a simple way to put a legend outside the plot area for a simple plot? I found... (at http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/) # Expand right side of clipping rect to make room for the legend *par(xpd=T, mar=par()$mar+c(0,0,0,4))* # Graph autos (transposing the matrix) using heat colors, # put 10% of the space between each bar, and make labels # smaller with horizontal y-axis labels

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

In the following: plot(0:1, 0:1) legend(x=0, y=1.2, pch=c(1,2), legend=c("May","June")) the first plot character is omitted when plotting to the screen. I obtained the same behaviour when placing a legend in the margin following use of pairs() -please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = x86 os = Win32 system = x86, Win32

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

Hi, I have a data set with two continous variables that I want to plot MEANS (I am not intrerested in median values) on a double-y graph. I also have 2 factors. I want the factor combinations plotted in different panes. Dummy dataset: mydata <- data.frame(factor1 = factor(rep(LETTERS[1:3], each = 40)), factor2 = factor(rep(c(1:4), each = 10)), y1 =

Hello Currently, I plot some coefficients with some intervals using function "plotCI()" (package "gplots") using the following code: (m1 <- matrix(0:5, nrow=2, byrow=T, dimnames=list(c("v1", "v2"), c("lo", "m", "hi")))) m2 <- m1 + 1 library(gplots) plotCI( x=1:length(m1[, 1]), pch="",

Hi, I am facing a problem with the legend, I don?t know how to use the fill option in the legend in order to achieve the same standard gray levels that are plotted. Sorry for this easy one, but I really did not find anything so far. It works fine with color: ###### C O L O R mat <- matrix(2,3,rep(2,6)) rownames(mat)<-c("A","B","C") par(xpd=T,

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>

Hi, I would like to place a line (tilted at an angle) in the margin of an R plot. Is there any way to place such an annotation outside the plotting area? As an alternative, being able to plot a rotated character (the pipe, |) in the margin would be sufficient. The problem is that mtext doesn't work with the srt option. As a further alternative, if I could put a legend in the margin, I

Dear Rs I have a 3x3 multiple plot. I would like to have a overall legend in the outer right margin. From the help archive, I found that it can be done by setting par(xpd=NA). However, I couldn't find the correct values for x and y co-ordinates for the legend. Please find the code snippet below: par(mfrow=c(3,3), mar=c(4,4,0.9,0.5), oma=c(1,2,2,4),cex.main=1.1)
