Yes. pty is another, for example. > I think that in fact "mfg" is only meant to be queried. No. One use for setting mfg is to produce a page of plots in portrait orientation with, say, two small plots on the top half of the page

I wanted to have a figure consisting of 2 square plots, one above the other (2 rows, 1 column). I am using 61.1 on Linux. I did: > x1<-rnorm(100) > y1<-rnorm(100) > par(mfcol=c(2,1)) > plot(x1,y1,pty="s",mfg=c(1,1,2,1)) > plot(x1,y1,pty="s",mfg=c(2,1,2,1)) The resulting figure consists of two plots, one above each other, BUT they are extremely squished in

Dear list, I've noticed a width/height scaling bug in multi-panel plots when you change the active plot using par mfg The underlying par setting that maps the full plot width (or height) to the numerical axis labels does not get updated when you change plots with par(mfg=...). Thus plotting a point at c(10,10) in the first plot will only be in the correct place IF the most recently

This is related to the incorrect bug report PR#7820. Marc Schwartz pointed out in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2005-April/033016.html an example of a real problem. If you call par(mfg=) after par(mfrow) (or mfcol) and before you have done any plotting, NewPage is not called on the device at the start of the first page. That causes the DSC comments to be incorrect on postscript()

Hi, I'm trying to add points to 2 plots on the fly using par(mfg=vector) so switch between them. However, the appropriate scales aren't switched when changing from one plot to another, e.g. par(mfcol=c(2,1)) plot(1,1, col="blue") # blue plot plot(1.2,1.2, col="red") # red plot points(1.1,1.1) # appears to bottom left of red point par(mfg=c(1,1)) #

Full_Name: Craig A. McKinstry Version: 1.0.0 OS: WinNT4.0 and Win98 Submission from: (NULL) (192.101.100.130) When creating a multi-panel graphic, the command par(mfg=c(i,j,r,c)) is supposed to allow the user free movement between graphics panels to develop each panel separately. This works for the first invocation of par(mfg=c()) and for the first panel panel specified, but not for subsequent

I have a question on the use of return(). (Nothing on it in the docs I have) The test code below gives the error: Error: Object "x" not found when I do: thingy2(). How should it be fixed?

The same problem I am having has been reported here http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04a/0344.html Namely that using par(mfg=...) with a postscript (eps) for inclusion with latex makes the figure appear upside down and back to front (flipped)! Converting the dvi to ps makes matters worse (the eps seems to be broken), however, it appears fine with gv. Here is (basically) the code I am

Can we add a note to the documentation that setting par(fig) resets par(mfrow) and par(mfcol) to c(1,1)? Or are mfrow and mfcol now deprecated in favor of all the split screen stuff? (I was spending the morning trying to write some code that plotted multiple subplots within whatever plot region was active at the moment; I was able to set and reset fig successfully, but got very confused as to

I am trying to put a legend below some plots as follows: x11() par(mfcol = c(2, 1), mar = c(5.1, 6.1, 4.1, 2.1)) matplot(matrix(1:30,15,2), type="l", lty=1:2) par(mfg = c(2, 1, 2, 1)) legend((par()$usr)[1:2], (par()$usr)[3:4], c("a","b"), lty = 1:2, col=1:2, bty = "y") The letters "a" and "b" print but not the lines.

Hi all, I am trying to display a matrix of plots(images), for example a 3*3 matrix of 9 image plots, such that when a user clicks on a image i can show the enlarged plot. I tried the multiple graphic device(using mfcol=c(3,3) and mfg), but it creates multiple plots in a single image file. So, i won't be able to highlight a particular plot when the user clicks on it. To be more clear, can i

I'm sure this must be trivial, but I'm a novice with R and can't work out how to handle the axes when I am constructing multiple plots on a page and try to return to a previous one to put multiple data sets it. A simple example: --- x<- 1:10 y<- (1:100)*3 par(mfcol=c(2,1)) plot(x) plot(y) par(mfg=c(1,1)) lines(x) --- The first 5 lines make two plots with a row of dots along

I'm having a problem with the mfg option of par. Am I making an error in my usage? Here is a simple example that I thought would plot to the 4 corners of a 2x2 plot but doesn't plot to the lower right and plots twice on the upper left. par(mfrow = c(2, 2)) pos <- as.matrix(expand.grid(1:2, 1:2)) for (ix in 4:1) { par(mfg = pos[ix, ]) plot(1:5) } Thank you in advance.

After some paper clipping problems I checked options() and saw that the default paper size was a4; I need US Letter. So as per instructions I uncommented the R_PAPERSIZE line in config.site, R_PAPERSIZE=letter Restarting R, everything is still the same though. I guess I have to reinstall? That seems awkward. Is there a way a prompt ("a4 or letter paper?") can be inserted in the
