Hi there, I'm trying to get some text in the outer margins of my plots and am having trouble - the margin text is overlapping my plots, even though the outer margin I'm trying to put it in is very big. I've simplified my problem down to this: ------------------------- X11(width=7.5,height=10) par(mfrow=c(6,1),oma=c(20,0,20,0), mar=c(0,3.1,1,2.1)) for (i in 1:6) {

Hi all, I have read through the archives, but can't find a solution to this problem. I need the text direction on "dependent B", plotted in margin 4, to go top to bottom (opposite what it is now). Here's some sample code: #plot with mtext example par(mgp = c(2,1,0), mfrow=c(2,2), las=1, mar=c(2,2,2,2), omi= c(0.5,0.2,0,0.2)) a<-1:10 b<-7:16 c<-21:30 plot(a~b,

Hi all, I have a basic question concerning graphs in R. I?m using the par() function and I?m working with multiple figures by row (mfrow) but my the hight of my figures become compressed. I have 4 rows and 2 columns (because I want to plot 8 histograms (freq = FALSE ) on it. I know I can adapt my margins with for example ?oma? and ?mai? but I don?t know how to choose the size of the figure? I

Dear R-helpers, I have split a dataframe into a list with five elements, with the following code: > datalist<-split(data,data$UNIT) I would now like to run some code (below) on each element of the list to extract rows from the list elements; then I would like to rbind the extracted rows into a new dataframe containing all of the extracted rows from all of the list elements. I don't

Depending on the setting of par()$usr, the 'at' setting in mtext(.., adj=0, outer=T) may cause the text to appear in an anomalous position (e. g. in the first instance below, at the left of the plot region rather than at 'at=0' in the figure region), or the text may not appear at all. If one does not set the 'at' parameter the text appears (with 'adj=0') on the

The code I'm using is shown below. I would like to have a larger median at the top of the plot so that I can show the entirity of "title_text". Several times I tried messing with "par(mar", but that seemed to make matters worse. By any chance can anyone provide any insight as to the best way to increase the top/upper/northern margin, so the entirity of the title is

I have written a function that goes through a database and calculates various metric scores and allocates them to a data set. For 400 of the 500 sites that I calculate these metrics for works fine and allocates the scores into the appropriate column. For some reason, some sites I run into the below problem: Here is what I am doing: > names(orig.metric) [1] "BenInsect"

It seems that there is a problem in displaying subtitle in general, independently from multi-plot display. when I do plot (c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7), type = "l") title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",cex.main=2, cex.sub = 2) subtitle doesn't get displayed > --- On Sat, 11/21/09, David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > wrote: >

Hi all, I am difficulty with simple layout of plots in the lattice package I have created a series of levelplots and would like to plot them to a single device, but need to reduce the margin areas. This is easily accomplished with par(oma) and par(mar) in the base graphics package but I am having problems finding the equivalent features in the lattice package. Ideally, I would like to reduce

Dear List, I have got error message when I run the R-code. Can anyone has a suggestion? v.code <- df.bm7[,c(10:31)]; v.code[1:3,] names(v.code) CM = v.code # variable binomial code sim.sp <- function(data,CM,n,N) { C <- matrix(rep(NA,N),ncol=1) for(i in 1:N) { j <- n xx <- which(colSums(CM[j,])==1) V <- names(xx) V <- paste(V,

I propose the following small changes to pairs.default. The point is to allow control of the outer margin settings, so that there is for example room for legends. [Note also the issue re the setting of par()$usr on exit] ---------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Replace function (x, labels, panel = points, main = NULL, font.main = par("font.main"),

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)

Hi, I am trying to plot my dataset, consisting of one column with numeric values and one column with group IDs. The set is similar to the following df. df <- NULL for ( i in 1:20) { tmp1 <- runif(1000,0,5) tmp2 <- cbind(tmp1,i) df <- rbind(df,tmp2) } Now I would like to plot the numeric column, stratified by the group IDs, in a single figure. First, I partitioned the frame

mtext(..., outer = TRUE) does not seem to center the text in the outer margins as it did previously. Reproduce with example(plot.profile.nls, package = "nls") On versions of the development sources before November 17 this produced main and subtitles that were centered horizontally on the page. After that the main title (from mtext("..", side = 3, outer = TRUE)) is centered

Hi Helpers: I have a factor object that has 314k entries of 39 land cover types.

Hi R-users, I inted to make multiple plots using for loop. The question is how can I adjust the left hand side margin of the plot according to the names.arg argument in barplot2. In every plot I have different annotations in the y axis and they vary in length. Now when I have fixed margins opar <- par(mar=c(3,15,0,2)... I get the same margins in all of the plots. That leaves lots of white

Dear R-list members, I am trying to put a legend just outside the plotting area of a graph. 1. Is there some way to plot symbols on the figure margin, in the same way as function "mtext" can write on the margin? 2. Is there some way to use the "legend" function (or some equivalent function) to plot a legend on the figure margin? 3. Any other way to plot either symbols or a

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

Readers, I tried to the following commands: plot(y~x,ylab=expression(A[1]~B[2],xlab=expression(C~D)) mtext(expression(A[1]~B[2]),"additional text",side=3,line=1) I receive the text that I want, but the command terminal shows the following response: Warning message: NAs introduced by coercion in: mtext(expression(A[1]~B[2]),"additional text", side = 3, What is my mistake

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
