Hi R-users, In a plot, can I specify pch to be a greek symbol? (I looked at show.pch() in the Hmisc package but couldn't see the right symbols in there). If not, I guess I can get around this using text(x,y,expression()). cheers!, Matt.

Hi, I want to write in x axis label "fitted value of lambda" (lambda in greek letter). xlab=expression(lambda) gives the "lambda", I tryed things like xlab=paste ("fitted value of ", expression(lambda)) but I didn't get the greek letter. Thanks in advance for any hint. Antonio Olinto ------------------------------------------------- WebMail Bignet - O seu

Hi, I need to add on a plot text containing italic Greek characters using the function mtext (i.e. I cannot use Hershey vectors). The characters are nicely displayed when the file is saved as png but not when saved as eps. See code below as example: #postscript('test.eps') png('test.png') plot(1,1, type = 'n') mtext(side = 3, line = 2,

Hello, I understand how to use substitute() to integrate Greek characters into plot labels, but I haven't been successful getting Greek to appear in the vector entries passed to legend() labels. Any hints? Thanks, -TAG

Hello there, Is there any way to italicize Greek symbols such as mu in axis? From the help files of mathematical anotations: "Note that bold, italic and bolditalic do not apply to symbols, and hence not to the Greek symbols such as mu which are displayed in the symbol font. They also do not apply to numeric constants.", it seems that it cannot be done. Thanks, Bingzhang Chen

Request For Translators<g> So what I've gathered from Wikipedia is that the Greek language does not use semicolons as a separator for enumerations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicolon#Greek_and_Church_Slavonic | In Greek and Church Slavonic, a semicolon indicates a question, | similar to a Latin question mark.[2] To indicate a long pause or | separate sections, each with commas

Hi all, I want to plot a series "x" and I want to put on title "Time evolution with alpha=0.2", e.g., plot(x, main="Time evotion with alpha=0.2",col="orange") Is there any posibility to put the greek letter and avoid written the word? Many thanks in advance. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm trying to annotate some graphics using plotmath and finding out that the code I'm using isn't bolding the greek letters - it bolds the rest (once I adjusted the numerics to characters), it's just failing on the greek characters. Any suggestions welcomed. Jim Price. Cardiome Pharma Corp. Test code: plot(1:5, type = 'n') # The not bold version text(2, 2:4, cex =

Hi, I'm fairly new to R, so hopefully this is an easy question... On a plot, I would like to have the y label read: "Response(phi)" with phi = the greek character. From old posts I've found this: title(ylab=expression(paste("Response (", phi, ")"))) This displays nicely, but in the default font. I would like to use font=6 (which is the font of the other

Dear all, I appreciate suggestions for following problem. I wrote to RStudio: plot(c(1,20),c(1,20), xlab = expression(paste(alfa))) or the same happen when I wrote: plot(c(1,20),c(1,20), xlab = expression(alfa)) what happen is, that description under x label is exactly "alpha", not greek letter alfa (?). Please where should I search problem, or what information to sent to list for

I have an instance where I need to include Greek letters on a plot title that is multiple lines. ? I've searched the forums for an approach to do this, but most of the previous posts and replies seem to just address instances of single line examples and problems:, e.g. ? https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/1999-October/005096.html ? I tried implementing those suggestions, e.g.

Dear list, I would like to plot points with two types of labels, one at the data point (the name of the point) and another offset a bit with another factor which is either of the two greek characters alpha or beta. I have tried to get the routine to plot a greek character with expression() or with substitute() and have not yet had any success. The following only plots the word in english in

Dear r-help list, I am trying to combine a greek letter lambda with the contents of a variable v in the title of a plot. However, it seems that having v inside the expression() function causes it not to be evaluated, on the other hand having expression(lambda) inside something else like paste causes it to be evaluated to a string. Here is an example of what I want to do:

Dear RGL experts, I haven't been able to add greek letters to my rgl plot3d. I have tried "expression" with no success. Here is the interested bit: > library(rgl) > cb <- cube3d() > plot3d(cb,xlab=expression(alpha),ylab="",zlab="",box=FALSE,alpha=0.5) The expression(alpha) appears as "alpha", rather than as a greek symbol. I suspect greek

Dear All, In the title of a plot, I would like to mix greek letters with numbers, where the numbers are obtained from a particular function to a vector (e.g., max(x)); in each call, the value of this vector can change. Without greek symbols I use something like: title(sub=paste("x1=", deparse(x[1]),"beta = ",deparse(max(x)), "rho = ", deparse(min(x)))) but I'd

Hello, In the past I have used "expression" to include greek letters in axis labels, but this time I need to include the greek letter as part of a legend. Basically, I need to create the following vector to rename the levels of a factor: c("Interferon-gamma", "IL-10", "IL-5"), where "gamma" obviously needs to be printed as the greek letter

Hi, all. I know that this is probably something that others have asked, but I can't find a reference in either the FAQ or the help pages. I'm trying to find a way to put Greek letters as a label of the plot *with* a value from the data. Previously I've used pasted and the word "rho". * paste("rho=", cor2[i]) will produce a label of

Dear R-help, I am trying to express myself as best as I can here. If you also use Latex to edit math reports or other languages with similar editing method, you'll see what I'm talking about. My sincere appologies if my question is not clear enough to some extend, as also I'm not able to provide my code here because I don`t know which one I can use... When editing the title in R

Hello, I want to have a title that will look something like: "Results for \theta=2.1", given that I have a variable theta=2.1, and \theta should show on the screen like the greek letter. I've tried a lot of things: theta <- 2.1 plot(1:10, main=expression(paste("Results for", theta, "=", eval(theta)))) or using bquote plot(1:10, main=paste("Results for
