similar to: axis annotation issue (PR#6758)

Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: R.1.9.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (140.107.156.61) I just found that rank() has a 'decreasing' argument that is not documented in its help page. I checked my version of 2.0.0 (original release hence unpatched) and it is not documented there. For curiousity I also went back to version 1.8.1 and checked the function (not the documentation)and at

Hello, We are looking to adjust the font size of the axis annotation on the graph that results from use of the metaplot() function. Metaplot seems to respond to cex and cex.lab to change those graphical parameters, but it doesn't respond to cex.axis. Is there a way to work around this by creating a customized x-axis, and if so, how? Thanks for all your help. Syntax is below. Best, Dawn

Thanks for the question. Here is a sample of the code for my plot: Top = c(34, 39, 42, 45, 46, 41, 41, 40, 43, 38, 33, 33) Bottom = c(24, 29, 32, 36, 32, 34, 32,41, 40, 39, 29, 24) plot(1,1, col = "white", xlim = c(1.3,11.7), ylim = c(0,80), axis = FALSE, xaxt = "n") axis(1, at = c(1:12)) polygon(c(c(1:12),c(12:1)), c(top, bottom), col =

Tena koe Simon plot(1:10, 1:10, type='n') polygon(c(2,3,6,8), c(2,5,5,3), density=20, angle=90) polygon(c(2,3,6,8), 5+c(2,5,5,3), density=20, angle=0) I don't understand your problem. Perhaps if you "provide[d] commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code" it would help. HTH .... Peter Alspach -----Original Message----- From: R-help [mailto:r-help-bounces at

Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: 1.7.0 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (209.31.211.56) Hi, Minor mistake in the documentation on the colSums page. In the ARGUMENTS section it states for 'dims' that: For `col*', the sum or mean is over dimensions `dims+1, ...'; for `row*' it is over dimensions `1:dims'. These two are reversed. Thanks, Doug Grove

The angle is not based on the polygon edges, but it can seem that way if you do not use the asp=1 argument in your plot. Try this example, > plot(1:10, 1:10, type='n') > x <- c(1, 3, 5, 3) > y <- c(3, 5, 3, 1) > polygon(x, y, angle=0, density=10) > polygon(x, y + 4.5, angle=45, density=10) > polygon(x + 4.5, y + 4.5, angle=90, density=10) > polygon(x + 4.5, y,

Hi all, how do I change the magnification of xaxis annotation? I need a smaller axis text size in some of my plots. I tried cex.axix=0.5 in plot(), but this doesn't work.

Filling polygons with lines is a throwback to the time when the height of quality graphics was the mechanical pen plotter (a device that used a pen in a mechanical arm to draw the plot on a piece of paper). Computing and printing technology has advanced quite a bit from that day, so you may want to reconsider why you want polygons filled with lines instead of just a solid color (and I consider

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can point me to a function that will allow me to do a ranking that treats ties differently than rank() provides for? I'd like a method that will assign to the elements of each tie group the largest rank. An example: For the vector 'v', I'd like the method to return 'rv' v: 1 2 3 3 3 4 5 5 6 7 rv: 1 2 5 5 5 6 8 8 9 10 Thanks,

Hi, The following command: axis(1, at= 1:50, labels= sampleNames(data)) produces an X-axis with 50 ticks and labels drawn from the sampleNames namespace. Problem is the labels at each tick are printed parallel to the x-axis and thus run into each other. How do I specify for the labels to be printed perpendicular to the x-axis? Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, Using the following script I generated a heatmap for my matrix with image.plot from the fields package: library(fields) as.matrix(read.table("Matrix.txt", sep="\t"))->x #on left: labels are: Side<-as.character(x[1,2:ncol(x)]) length(Side)->nS #on bottom, labels are: Bot<-as.character(x[2:nrow(x),1]) #remove first row and column

I am trying to use the angle option in polygon to create polygons filled with horizontal and vertical lines. The polygons I am crating are irregular and it the angle function appears to set the angle of the shading perpendicular to the polygon sides rather than perpendicular to the axes. Is there any way to set the angle relative to the axes rather than relative to the polygon sides?

Hi, This report deals with p-values coming from chisq.test using the simulate.p=TRUE option. The issue is numerical accuracy and was brought up in previous bug reports 3486 and 3896. The bug was considered fixed but apparently was only mostly fixed. Just the typical problem of two values that are mathematically equal not ending up numerically equivalent. Consider this series of three 2x2

When the user specifies the argument 'package' the code doesn't define the variable 'paths' prior to trying to use it, which obviously produces an error. The code dies when

I would like to make my horizontal barplot vertical axis labels perpendicular to the axis. I tried las=1, srt=90; I even tried yaxt='n' thinking I'd put the labels in using mtext, but the axis continued to be drawn. Can anyone help me with this? My barplot() statement looks like this: barplot(height=foo$rebint[o1], names=foo$Unit[o1], horiz=TRUE, col=mycolors[foo$type[o1]],

Hi, It would be great if someone would add write.delim() as an adjunct to write.table(), just as with write.csv(). I store a lot of data in tab-delimited files and can read it in easily with: read.delim("text.txt", as.is=TRUE) and would love to be able to write it out as easily when I create these files. The obvious setting needed for write.delim() is sep = "\t", but in

Dear R-users first, thanks to Paul Murrell for fixing my problem "What line is labeled in persp()". It works great now (in the development version). One more question (I don't know if it's related to the "old" problem): the annotation on the z-axis overwrites the numbers at the tickmarks and sometimes, if numbers are pretty long, the numbers themselfe overlap the
