similar to: adjust space between horizontal legend text in a barplot

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",

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 +

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

Hello, I am attempting to create a bar plot that contains a range of possible response values on the x-axis of 1 to 5 and contains barplots for the number of responses even in the event that there are 0 responses. For example, I have a data set that contains values of 2, 3, 4, and 5 but I would also like my graph to show that there are no 1's. I have attached the resulting graph. The

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, 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("", "",

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

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?

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>

All, I have: x <- matrix(c(22,3,6,69,9,4,7,81,23,4,22,50),nrow=3,byrow=TRUE) rownames(x) <- c("Cold or flu","Headache","Backache"); colnames(x) <- c("Went to doctor","No response","Did nothing","Self-medicated") x <- t(x) print(x) barplot(x,beside=TRUE, ylim=c(0,90), xlab="Ailment",

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.

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

Bars are not stacked, but superimposed. This happens even with the first example of barplot: tN <- table(Ni <- rpois(100, lambda=5)) r <- barplot(tN, col='gray') --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = i386 os = mingw32 system = i386, mingw32 status = major = 1 minor = 9.0 year = 2004 month = 04 day = 12

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

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",

Hi all! One quick question: How do I get the standard colors used by barplot? I have some stacked bars and would like to add a horizontal legend via legend() but I don't know how to find the colors for the fills of the legend points. Thanks! Werner

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

When I create a bar plot, the legend is obscuring the rightmost bar. I haven't found a setting that appears to affect the positioning of the legend - any tips re moving the legend would be most appreciated. paul sorenson
