similar to: Wishlist: more flexible handling of tick labels in axis.Date (PR#7914)

Full_Name: Gavin Simpson Version: 2.1.0-patched (1-Jun-2005) OS: Linux (Fedora Core 3) Submission from: (NULL) (128.40.32.76) axis.Date() insists on labelling tick marks. It could be made more flexible by allowing the user to specify if they want the ticks to be labelled, for example, to add un-labelled minor ticks for "months", added to a plot with "years" labelled. The user

I am finding that axis.POSIXct uses the local timezone for deciding where to put tic marks, even if the data being plotted are in another time zone. The solution is to use attr() to copy from the 'x' (provided as an argument) to the 'z' (used for the 'at' locations). I have pasted my proposed solution in section 1 below (as a diff). Then, in section 2, I'll put some

I've never had any issues with the way that plot.POSIXct chooses the labels of the date axis before, but in this particular case it's output is a little confusing. plot(seq(as.POSIXct("1997-10-01"),length.out=108,by="month"),rnorm(108)) This command produces a chart with every x tick mark labeled as "Jan 01". I can replicate this chart by adding the format

Hi all, I came across some curious behavior today in using hist.Date() and subsequently noted the same behavior in cut.Date(), both of which are using similar code when 'breaks = "months"' or 'breaks = "years"'. I was in the process of creating a histogram of subject enrollment in a clinical trial. The counts needed to be by month, so essentially used:

Hello, probably a newbie question, but i didnt find any information on plotting/regressing w.r.t. a date data type. My trials were unfruitful. Can anyone help ? Thanks in advance! Here is my interaction with R: > tabelle date number date2 1 2009-01-1 1673 2009-01-01 2 2009-12-1 2111 2009-12-01 3 2010-7-1 2487 2010-07-01 4 2013-2-1 4301 2013-02-01 > regression.punkte<-lm(tabelle$number

Dear all, What I want to create is an interactive 3D plot from a data frame like this: #: number TLD: Countrycode Date: date String: a label Because plot3d can only deal with numbers I converted Date to Year and TLD as well as String to a numeric value like this: numTLD <- as.numeric(factor(df$TLD)) # TLD Date String Year numTLD numString 1 DE 1988-11-07 B23K 1988 3 74 2 DE

Hi, This is not a bug, but a simple enhancement suggestion: that axis( ) also allow option "col" to take a vector of colors equal to the length of "labels". Currently it allows it, in the sense that there is no error message, but the function will use just the first element of the vector. Example > plot(1:5,exp(1:5),axes=F,type="o") >

People, I am using the "las=2" parameter to rotate the labels for the X axis ticks but it means that they are almost touching the "xlab" string. I have been messing around with the "mai" paremeter but that doesn't help - is there some way of increasing the space between xlab and the X axis tick labels?

Full_Name: Tom Short Version: 1.9.1 OS: Win2000 & Debian Submission from: (NULL) (64.65.255.41) WISHLIST: axis() has a default parameter of "lwd = 1". I want skinnier lines as the default. If I change the default lty, it doesn't change what axis uses. The following code produces a graph with a box around it, but the axis lines are twice as thick as the box around the plot, so

I recently called plot(x,y) where x was an array of POSIXct timestamps, and was pleasantly surprised that it produced a nice plot right out of the box: z <- as.POSIXct(c("2006-10-26 08:00:00 EDT","2007-10-25 12:00:00 EDT")) x <- seq(z[1],z[2],len=100) y <- 1:100 plot(x,y,type="l") The X axis had nice labels, one tick mark every other month.

Hello, I want to reduce the distance between my ticks and their labels. I managed to do it for the x-axis, but the y-axis puzzles me. Here's an example where there is no space between the x-asix ticks and labels. par(las=1) plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l") axis(2) axis(1,padj=-1.5) #However, axis(2,padj=-1.5)

I have tried multiple different methods to figure out how to get a date axis of my preference (start date of each month). Any assistance would be appreciated. The below section is not producing a date axis: plot(totaldays$totaldays,totaldays$y,type="n",ylim=c(0,Emax),xaxt="n") *xlabels<-(strptime(totaldays$totaldays,"%Y-%m-%d",tz=""))

For example, this works: x = seq(-100, 1000, 25) y = x * x plot(x,y, xaxt="n") axis(1,x,FALSE,tcl=-0.3) axis(1,x[x %% 100 ==0]) It creates two axis objects and the values of the x-axis are the labels. The following scenario is more difficult, because it uses 'image' to plot a grid of values: a = matrix(rnorm(100),ncol=10) image(1:ncol(a), 1:nrow(a), a, xaxt="n",

Hi, I am doing fine editing on a lattice plot, now have the Y-axis title in the correct position, but the tick labels are too far from the axis line. I looked at the help documentation but could not find how to change this. This seems to be easy to do in basic plots with "at=c(value1, value2, value3)" . Is there some equivalent in lattice? Thanks. -- View this message in context:

Hi, For example, the y axis shows "0 500000 1500000". Is there any way to beautify the tick labels to get 0 5 10 15, and at the top of y-axis "x10^5" (superscript 5) ? My plots all have different ylim, how to perform the beautification automatically ? Thanks Stanley [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is there a better alternative to x = c(1e7, 2e7) x.lb = c(0,1e7,2e7) s.lb = format(x.lb, scientific = FALSE, big.mark = ",") barplot(x, yaxt = "n", ylab = "") axis(side = 2, at = x.lb, labels = s.lb) (I am sure there is a better alternative to line 2 :)).

Hi, So far as I can tell, the 'col.ticks' parameter for axis() only uses the first value provided. E.g.: plot(0:1,0:1, col.ticks=c('blue','red','green')) #all ticks are blue Just wondering if there's a different option in the basic plot commands that can handle multiple colors, and also whether ggplot and/or lattice allow for multiple tick colors.

Hi all: I've been trying to figure out a way to move the tick mark labels in my lattice plots closer to the the axes. I've tinkered with a lot of the "buffer" parameters (those listed by trellis.par.get()), but haven't had any luck. Any ideas? Cheers. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
