similar to: add data symbol to axis label

Hi, I am using the following code as an example function to create multiple y-axes on one plot. I have it working fine however, I can't seem to add a label on the second (right) axis. I have tried adding ylab="y2" in the axis call but, that didn't work; any ideas? Thanks, Jesse Code: function() { par(las=1,xaxs="r",mai=c(1,0.75,1,1)) x<-1:10 y1<-x

Hi, I have a data set with two continous variables that I want to plot MEANS (I am not intrerested in median values) on a double-y graph. I also have 2 factors. I want the factor combinations plotted in different panes. Dummy dataset: mydata <- data.frame(factor1 = factor(rep(LETTERS[1:3], each = 40)), factor2 = factor(rep(c(1:4), each = 10)), y1 =

Is there a simple way to put a legend outside the plot area for a simple plot? I found... (at http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/) # Expand right side of clipping rect to make room for the legend *par(xpd=T, mar=par()$mar+c(0,0,0,4))* # Graph autos (transposing the matrix) using heat colors, # put 10% of the space between each bar, and make labels # smaller with horizontal y-axis labels

Hi In R, using plot(x,y) followed by abline(lm(y~x)) produces a graph with a regression line spanning the whole plot . This means that the line extends beyond the swarm of data points to the defined of default plot region. With par(xpd=T) it will span the entire figure region. But how can I limit a regression line to the data range, i.e between (xmin,ymin) and (xmax,ymax)? Sorry for

Here is a demonstration of behaviour that is probably an optimization by someone far smarter than me that did not anticipate anyone wanting to do this, but for my purposes it looks more like a bug than a feature. I have tested this with R2.6.2 on Windows, no additional packages loaded (beyond the default), I have tested using the default graphics object, pdf, jpeg, and cairoDevice (ok I loaded a

Hi, I have a histogram with values logged to the base 10 hist(log10(x),breaks=60) How do I show the log values on the x-axis and a second x-axis showing the real values? Thanks -- Shane [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R users, has anybody made an attempt to create the soil texture triangle graph in R? For an example see here: http://www.teachingkate.org/images/soiltria.gif I would like to get the lines in black and texture labels in gray to allow for plotting my texture results on top. Any examples or suggestions are very welcome! Thanks in advance, Sander. --

Hello, I'd like to add labels to my plot that include a male or female symbol as subscript. I'm working in Windows Vista and R 3.0.0. I am able to add the male symbol to the plot as regular text (NOT as subscript), e.g. with: mtext("Male\u2642") This displays the word "Male" followed by the male symbol on the plot. But "\u2642" does not work when I try to

Hi, please can you help me. When I add a legend to a boxplot it appears inside the plot area, how do you get it into the margins? I have already changed the parameters so there is space for it on the margin on the right hand side of the graph. Thanks, Emily [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-users, I am using R version 2.10.1 under windows. In a barplot, I want to mark one of the bars with a special border color. For example: barplot(c(3, 7, 11), border = c(NA, "red", NA)) But how to do this when the bars are stacked? for example: barplot(matrix(1:6, ncol=3)) # border of second bar (i.e. the one with total height = 7) should be red again, I try: barplot(matrix(1:6,

Readers, For this data set: testvalues<-c(10,20,30,40) How to amend the plot instruction: plot(testvalues,ann=FALSE,type='l',yaxt='n',xaxt='n') so that x axis ticks labels can be added to existing graph with arbitrary value such as 0,100,200,300)? Thanks in advance. -- r2151

I have a protein sequence alignement and for each position of the alignement, I want to plot two values (one per sequence). Alignements look like this: MVAFKGVWTQAFWKAVTAEFL --------MCSISRKMAAEFI So, data for the plot would be something like this Prot 1 values: 1 5 2 7 4 3 5 6 8 2 2 7 6 4 2 8 5 8 2 3 7 3 Prot 2 values: 1 8 5 0 5 3 4 1 2 2 3 7 0 Aligned Prot 1

Hi list, I want to add some lines at margin area of one figure. mtext could add text to these margins, can I add lines with different lty parameters? Thanks, mike [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi is there an alternative to par(new), for ading data to a plot for a different y-axis? My problem with par(new=TRUE) is, that it re-defines all axis and labels (as in example 1) and one has to use xlim=... to fix the x-axis. I am looking for something, which simply resets the y-axis, so that a new plot() (or points()/lines()) keeps the x-axis, but re-defines the y-axis. Is there something

Readers, For a part of the 'plot' command: ...ylab=expression(paste('rate (',degree~C^-1,')'))... Is it possible to introduce 'thinspace' (e.g. '\thinspace' in LaTeX) between the degree (?) sign and the centigrade (C) symbol? -- r2151

Dear all I have a code like x<-1:10 y1<-x+runif(10)*2 y2<-seq(0,50,length.out=10)+rnorm(10)*10 par(mfrow=c(1,2)) plot(y1~x) plot(y2~x) Now I would like to plot y1 and y2 on the same graph, with its two scales (y1 on left and y2 on rigth side). Any help are welcome. Kind regards Miltinho Brazil [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, Is it possible to skip part of an axis in order to adapt the axis to the "normal" values and not to an outlier, but still have the outlier in the graph ? I.e. have my axis go from 1 to 100, then break the axis in some way, and continue with 500 to 600 ? Moritz P.S. Please cc the answer to my address since I'm not in the mailing list.

Basic question: I looked around quite a bit, still having a little trouble manipulating the distance between the Y-axis label and the plot. In this case, I would like to move the Y axis title closer to the plot. # Data tC <- textConnection(" Time Type1 Type2 Type3 1.3 .50 .10 .40 4.5 .45 .20 .35 5.2 .40 .30 .30 ") data1 <- read.table(header=TRUE, tC) data2 <-
