similar to: Lattice: choice of symbol and symbol position in legend

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

How do I move the legend from default position (right and within the plot)?to the "bottomleft" of the plot? ? interaction.plot(YEAR, ID?GROWTH, legend=TRUE, col = 2:7,xlab="Year", ?????? ylim=c(0,2), ylab="Growth",leg.bty = "o") Peter Maclean Department of Economics UDSM

Searching the mail archives I found that using legend.position as in p.ring.3 + opts(legend.position="top") is a known bug. I tried doing p.ring.3 + opts(legend.position=c(0.8, 0.2)) which works, but the legend background is transparent, i.e. I see the plot background through the legend. Adding additional option opts(legend.background=theme_rect(fill=TRUE,colour="white"))

Dear R Users! I've want to save a lattice "parallel" plot with legend as png: Plotting with legend works well, but when trying to save the plot there occurs a problem with the legend. ################################################### require(lattice) #Some data: data<-matrix(rnorm(100),ncol=5) #Plot works parallel(data)

Hello, I've written a function that plots a few functions in a diagram. The xlim and or ylim is not always the same, and set automatically by R. A legend is part of this object. Now the problem is: where to put the legend? Me would help a function that returns the limits and scaling of the axis. Thanks for your help. Carsten [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi: I am using the following command: xyplot(dat6$CO3*1e6 ~ dat6$irradiance, data=dat6, group=ref, xlab=list(label=expression(paste("Irradiance (", mu, "mol photons", m^"-2", " ", s^"-1", ")")), cex=1.3), ylab=list(label=expression(paste("Carbonate concentration (x ", 10^"6", " ", kg^"-1",

Hi folks, can anybody give me a hint how to solve the following problem? I have several plots in one window like this: layout(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), nrow = 2, byrow = TRUE)) plot(rnorm(100)) plot(rnorm(200)) plot(rnorm(300)) plot(rnorm(400)) Now, I'd like to create a legend below each plot and generate a common title. How can I do that? Antje

Dear R Users, I'm able to display a legend using the following code: > legend("topright", c("Simulation", "Observation"), fill=2:3, bty="n") However, this causes the legend to be positioned too close to the bars in my barplot. I'd like to move the legend up slightly. I have been trying to determine the necessary values by trial and error to 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

At one point I believe I heard of an R package that would automatically find the most empty space in a plot, and then that answer could then be used to intelligently place a legend. I would like to try to apply that R package to the contrived example shown below, so thank you for any hints or tips that can be provided. x = seq(0, 1000, by = 1) y1_vals<-rnorm(1000, mean = 0, sd = 50)

I'm trying to generate some plots for print publication and I'm having trouble getting them the way I want. I get a plot with a legend that overlaps the bars and looks bad. Also, I'm saving this as PDF file (whatever happened to the "png" function to save as PNG format, in r 1.4.1?) I've tried a number of things, which produce a number of questions. 1) it seems that the

I managed to get everything to look and feel the way I want except for the legend to plot outside the grid...

I would like to use the data below where the plots are close to what I want. Instead of color I would like to use different symbols, and have the symbols in the legend match the graphs. I am also going to add a regression line to these I know about the type="r" (which is fine for these particular graphs) argument, but it fits the subsets instead of the entire data set-- should I use a

Hi, Is it possible to create a legend in a pairs() plot? For example, suppose I have the following R codes: data(iris) pairs(iris[1:4], main = "Anderson's Iris Data -- 3 species", pch = 21, bg = c("red", "green3", "blue")[codes(iris$Species)]) How can I created a legend that shows which colour represents to which Iris species? Thanks,

Hello R-helpers, I'm trying to customize a graphic in lattice using the 'legend' argument to add labels on my plot but in the process I'm losing the legend drawn by 'auto.key', despite the fact that I'm actually not sticking these on the same sides of the graphic. I worked up a quick and simple example with the iris data : ### here's the basic graph

Dear useRs, I'm trying to create a barplot like so: x=matrix(1:10,2,5) barplot(x,leg=c("left","right"),besid=T) The legend is placed in default position topright, however the data are plotted there too. I tried controlling the legend position by adding x="topleft" but this results in an error that x matches multiple formal arguments. Leaving out the legend

Hello, In order to reduce the width of my legend in a plot I introduced line jumps in the title. Here's the problem; the legend box hasn't adapted accordingly and part of the title is printed out of the frame. See the example below: plot(1:10) legend("bottomright", bg="white", fill=c(7,8,12,13,19),

Dear all, I'm attempting to insert a legend into a line graph. I've sorted out the positioning, but I'm unable to display the sample line and associated colour to go within the legend box. Instead, under the variable names, the numbers 1, 2, 2, 3 are displayed in a column (with '2' repeated twice). This is the code I'm using: legend(80,1150, c("Simulation",

Good morning to you. I have about 4 different lines in one plot. I have used legend to indicate the colour of each plot. But the box contain the legend covers part of the lines thereby blurring the legend. There are some spaces in the plot that are empty and large enough to accommodate the legend box. If there a command I could use to set the position of the legend myself. I added the legend

I am sorry that this is another novice question. I am having trouble using "legend" with the survival curve plot from the survival package, and I wonder if it is because I have rescaled my plot. Here is the relevant segment of code: > plot(survfit(Surv(OS,Status)~shortishcr1),main='Overall Survival by factor', + xlab='Years',ylab='%
