similar to: cex= and plot(), title(), mtext()

Hi, I am using mtext instead of the ylab argument in some plots because i want to move it away from the numbers in the axis. However, the text in the X axis, for example: par(mar=c(5, 5.5, 4, 2)); plot(data, main="plot name", xlab= 'X axis', ylab="", font=2, cex.lab=1.5, font.lab=2, cex.main=1.8); mtext('Y axis', side=2, cex=1.5, line=4,

Dear R-users, the problem I'm facing today is to write a multicolor main title in a plot. I would like to have 3/4 colors to help people in the audience to visually realize what is what in a 4x2 plot array On top of each plot I would like to have two lines. The 1st line will indicate what is plotted The 2nd line will indicate a a reference Graphically speaking I would like a result similar

R 2.15.1 OS X (MLion) Colleagues, I am aware that changes in mfrow / mfcol in par() affect cex (from help: In a layout with exactly two rows and columns the base value of ?"cex"? is reduced by a factor of 0.83: if there are three or more of either rows or columns, the reduction factor is 0.66). I generate a multipage PDF in which mfrow varies such that cex is impacted. This affect

I have a simple graph (oode below) which looks fine on the screen but when I save it in png format the title (actually the last mtext line) is cut off. I am pretty sure that I am doing something very stupid but other than playing around with the png height and width commands which don't seem to help I have no idea of what to look for. Any suggestions or cures would be appreciated. Thanks

Dear R Users, I am quite surprised to see that mtext gives different results when it is used with 'pairs' and with "plot'. In the two following codes, it seems that the 'at' argument in mtext doesn't consider the same unit system. I would appreciate your comments on this issue. Sebastien ##### Pairs mydata<-data.frame(x=1:10,y=1:10) par(cex.main=1,

Dear all, I am trying to write figures directly to a file using the jpeg() function. this_ylab=expression(paste("P",sep="")~lambda) this_xlab=expression(rho) jpeg("file_name.jpeg",width=100,height=100,units="mm",res=300) plot(input_values,output_values,pch=16,cex=cex_pt,xlab="",frame.plot=T,ann=F,axes=F) axis(side=2)

Hi everyone, I suspect this is an easy task however I've not been able to accomplish it. I'd like to create an mtext title which has certain words bold, the rest not bold. So far I've been able to create one which is all bold, one which is all not bold and one which has bold and not bold superimposed on one another. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Many thanks, Joe Retzer # Not

Dear R-helpers, I have trouble aligning an expression with a subscript, and text, in margin text: par(mar=c(6,6,1,1)) b <- barplot(1:3) mtext(c("A","B","C"), at=b, side=1, line=1, cex=1.3) mtext(expression(italic(C)[a]~(more~text)), at=0, line=1, side=1,cex=1.3) As explained in the help files and elsewhere, I understand that the expression is aligned by the

I want to right-justify a vector of numbers in the right margin of a low-level plot. For this I need to compute the line parameter to give to mtext. Is this the correct scalable calculation? par(mar=c(4,3,1,5)); plot(1:20) s <- 'abcde'; w=strwidth(s, units='inches')/par('cin')[1] mtext(s, side=4, las=1, at=5, adj=1, line=w-.5, cex=1) mtext(s, side=4, las=1, at=7,

Following on from my previous mail! plot(1:10,1:10) mtext("title", side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) This works as expected and puts the font in italics. tag <- "A)" suffix <- "genea::" plot(1:10,1:10) mtext(bquote(.(tag) ~ Delta * .(suffix)), side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) Here, the font isn't in italics, it's normal. I presume this is some

Hi, I created several figures and their titles should appear like this: Figure 1: Monte Carlo results for alternative estimators of structural parameters (N = 100, T = 5) Because N and T change across figures, my code includes the following lines: N.set <- 100 T.set <- 5 mtext(“Figure 1: Monte Carlo results for alternative estimators of structural

Hello everyone I have problem with axis labels on graphs, I have my code as below: plot(0,0,xlim=c(1,ncol(PA)),ylim=c(1,nrow(PA)),main="Stratigraphic Range",xlab="Time Bins",ylab="Taxa",cex.axis=1.5,cex.lab=2,cex.main=2.5,mgp=c(5,1.5,0),xaxt="n") text(1:(length(strat_name)), y= 0, adj=1, srt=45,labels=strat_name,xpd=TRUE, cex=1) #adds text to x

Dear all; I wish to create a graphic object combing an xyplot() and an mtext(). My code looks like following, gmv <- { trellis.device("windows", bg="white", width = 7, height = 7) xyplot(Mvol ~ Age | Nl * Th , data = Hft1, prepanel = function(x, y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span = 1), xlab =list(label = "Age (Years)", font = 2),

Sir, I have hit a the limits of my understanding of text / par / opar etc... I have a few related xts data frames which have multiple columns, and have written a for-loop to make a set of charts - however i do not get any margin text when i run the loop. when i test the code outside of the loop the margin text appears - however when i run the loop the margin text does not appear ... what gives?

Hello list. Is it possible to use par(srt=45) to rotate text by 45 degrees along the x-axis of a plot. Using: <code> x_names<-c("C57 Nv", "C57 Vacc", "129 Nv", "129 Vacc", "IFNgR Nv", "IFNgR Vacc") par(srt=45) mtext(font=2, x_names, side=1, line=1, at=l, cex=1.2) par(srt=0) </code> doesn't seem to work in R 2.2.0

Hello, I have a barplot where each row has quite long texts and I have used "par" to make some room in the left: par(mar=c(0, 17, 3, 0), oma=c(0, 0, 0, 0)) barplot2(prueba, main = l, col=colores, horiz=TRUE,las=1, cex.names=.7) My problem is that main text appears justified to the plot. I want to put it in the middle of the image, and find a way to sort it out with mtex par(mar=c(0,

Hi all. I have defined a plot thus: par(mar=c(5,5,4,5),las=1, xpd=NA) plot(Day, Ym1Imp, ylim=c(0,100), type="b", bty="l", main="Ym1 Expression", cex=1.3, xaxt="n", yaxt="n") #plot implant data axis(side=1, at=c(0,1,3,5,7,10,14,21), labels=c(0,1,3,5,7,10,14,21)) # label x axis mtext("Day", side =1, at=10, line=3, cex=1.2) # title x

Hello everyone, a problem with the plot.zoo function. In the parameters of the function, cex.lab is ignored. I tried to reduce the size of the yaxis labels by at least 50%. ------------------ Example: sample <- as.zoo(EuStockMarkets) par(las=1) plot.zoo(sample, plot.type="multiple", main="Time Series", xlab="Date", yaxt="n", cex.lab=0.5,

Hi, I wanted to plot 2 lines on a single graph. Each graph has one axis that can be common. The code that I'm using is: ------------------------------------------------------- par(mfrow=c(1, 1)) x1 <- c(2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) x2 <- c(10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60) y1 <- c(10,12,15,22,34,21) y2 <- c(40, 130, 150, 145, 40, 30) par(las=1, mar=c(4, 4, 2, 4)) plot.new()
