Paul, I was trying to make a minimal self contained example, but I guess I went too far on the minimizing. The original problem came from code more like: library(TeachingDemos) hist(rexp(1000), main='') abline( v=1, col='red') sp.par <- subplot(hist(rnorm(100), main=''), x='topright') op <- par(sp.par[c('usr', 'plt')]) abline(v=0,

Hi The main issue here is that the 'graphics' package has no real concept of going back to a previous plot (the 'grid' package has explicit support for that sort of thing). In 'graphics' you can only go forwards to the next plot; you can fake going back by creating a new plot that is like a previous plot. par(plt=, usr=) is not designed to return you to a previous

Hi I'm going to try to blame user error here. par(usr) is used to reset the coordinates on the CURRENT plot. par(plt) is used to specify the location of the NEXT plot. The correct approach should be to set up the location for the next plot, start a new plot, set up coordinates on the new plot. Neither of your examples performs the "start a new plot" step. I would expect to see

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

Is it possible to add lines or other user defined graphics to a plot in R that does not depend on the user scale for the plot? For example I have a plot plot(x,y) and I want to add some graphic that is scaled in inches or cm but I do not want the graphic to change when the x-y scales are changed - like a thermometer, scale bar or other symbol - How does one do this? I want to build my own

Does anyone have a simple explanation and example on how to add histograms or barcharts to an other graph like in the example at the R-graph gallery: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=109 looking at the code I'not undertand very well how to add graphs in arbitrary/clever position with an adequate scale. If somebody have a simplier example with explanations it

Thanks... I agree that the problem was explained in the documentation but I can't find a way to have axis() working even manipulating par("plt") or with graphics.reset = TRUE: - adding graphics.reset=TRUE does not allow axis() to be shown; - I see that par()$plt is involved but it is the not sufficient to explain why axis() works because if it is changed by hand, axes are not

Hi all, I'm trying to visualize animal movement data characteristics spatiotemporally by overlaying many different histograms on a map. I want the histograms to be plotted at coordinates in the map that matches a region they describe. If I was just doing this once, I'd fiddle in Illustrator after R and avoid the headache. But I'll be doing it many many times so it seems

I want to draw a little subplot ("overview") into my detailed plot. It should be placed in say the top right corner and have the size of some legend (like legend(x="topright", inset=0.03, ...) #main plot plot(rnorm(100)) #give little density in corner plot(seq(-2,2,length=300),dnorm(seq(-2,2,length=300)),type="l") I don't want something like par(mfrow=c(1,2)) as

Hello all, I'm trying to write a function using the gridBase package. I'd like to push several base subplots to a larger plot constructed with grid. However, I'm having trouble getting consistent results when running the function when the plotting window (quartz) is closed, when it is left open and the plot function is repeated to the same window, and when the output is saved to a

Hello, Below is some example code that should reproduce an error I'm encountering while trying to create a tiff plot with two subplots. If I run just the following bit of code through the R GUI the result is what I'd like to have appear in the saved tiff image: x<-seq(0:20) y<-c(1,1,2,2,3,4,5,4,3,6,7,1,1,2,2,3,4,5,4,3,6) plot(x,y,type="l",las=1,ylim=c(0,12))

Hi all, Is there a way to rotate a plot, e.g. a histogram, by a certain angle (90/180/270 degress)? I spent hours trying to figure out how this is done, but without success. Also, I'm looking for an equivalent to the S-Plus "subplot" command to insert a kind of "thumbnail" graphic into a bigger one. How is this best done in R? Thanks for your help Pascal

Greetings, I am trying to add a boxplot to the bottom of a histogram, right between the histogram bars and the x axis. Here is the code I am using at the moment (the par line is probably not relevant for our discussion): hs <- hist(x, breaks = 20, plot = F) par(mar = c(3,3,2,1)) hist(x, breaks = 20, main = NULL, ylim = c(-2, max(hs$counts))) boxplot(x, horizontal = T, axes = T, add =

Dear R-users, after seeking for help in R-search I did not find any hint on my particular problem. Countless help on "true" overlay, but nothing on this. Please consider the following: par(mfrow = c(2, 1)) T <- seq(0, 20, by = 0.01) ## PLOT 1 plot(T, 30*exp(-0.65*T), type = "l" ) points(T, 30*exp(-0.26 * T), type = "l", lty = "F8") points(T,

hi everybody, I noticed the following: in one of my scripts 'layout' is used to generate a (approx. square) grid of variable dimensions (depending on no. of input files). if the no. of subplots (grid cells) becomes moderately large (say > 9) I use a construct like ###layout grid computation and set up occurs here### ... opar <- par(no.readonly = T);

Hi, I posted over at R-help, and didn't get a response, but perhaps that was the wrong forum for this question. I'm having some confusion over the coordinate system after using pairs. I'm not interested in the content of the actual pairs plot, although the number of pairs seems to matter a bit. I'm purely interested in knowing where subsequent points will be plotted on the

hello, does anyone know how to add histograms or distributions on regression like just like quantiles regression in RGraphGallery below, a very delicate codes. Thanks alot. http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=109

I am trying to plot a figure within a figure (an inset that shows a closeup of part of the data set). I have searched R-help and other sources but not found a solution. What I would like to do is (1) produce a plot (2) specify a window that will be used for the next plot (in inches or using the coordinate system of the plot produced in (1) (3) overlay a new plot in the window specified under (2)

Hi, I'am trying to make a multiple bar plot over a map and I'm having difficulties with the distance between axes labels and the axis. Trying to control this with mgp does not help because it controls both axes simultaneously. For example, with default values (mgp = c(3, 1, 0)) y-axis labels are ok, but x-axis labels are not. Setting mgp = c(3, 0, 0) gives good x-axis labels but the
