similar to: What name-value pairs can be used in gpar()?

Dear R-users, I would like to know how to pass arguments to gpar() without hard-coding them. I tried to store my arguments in a list and passed this list to gpar(), but it did find the way to do it properly. Any help would be appreciated. a<- list(fontisze=8,col=3) gpar(fontsize=8,col=3) gpar(a) gpar(unlist(a))

Dear r-helpers, Does anyone have a straightforward example of putting together three unrelated (expect for a common y-axis) xyplot() figures in what would be in base graphics a par(mfrow = c(1, 3)) arrangement? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400 Charlottesville, VA 22904-4400 Parcels: Room 102

Hi List, I am trying unsucessfully to modify the fontsize of lables in mosaic: require(vcd) mosaic(Titanic, pop=FALSE, labeling_args=list(rot_labels=c(bottom=90,top=90), set_varnames = c(Sex = "Gender"), gp_text=gpar(fontsize=20))) #can't get it to resize text tab <- ifelse(Titanic < 6, NA, Titanic) # it works for labeling_cells labeling_cells(text = tab,

I'm trying to find a way to change the font size in a mosaic plot (the grid version, not the base graphics one). Here's an example to demonstrate: #Basic plot library(vcd) mosaic(HairEyeColor, shade = TRUE) #Bad first guess: this stops the default cell colouring, and doesn't change the font size mosaic(HairEyeColor, shade = TRUE, gp=gpar(fontsize=16)) #This successfully changes

Hi There are new versions of the grid and lattice packages on CRAN: grid 0.2 and lattice 0.3-0 These packages are still _under development_ (they are in CRAN/src/contrib/Devel) There have been some bug fixes and, especially in lattice, there are lots of new features. Descriptions of the changes are included below. If you have any grid code, it may break under the new version because of a

Greetings to the help mailing list. I am in the process of translating a large graphic from xyplot to ggplot2 (13 columns by about rows). I have been unsuccessful trying to understand how to place the following text strings after three days of: * Perusing Wickham's "gg2plot" book; * Searching his site for gg2plot and qplot; * Reviewing the "man pages" for gg2plot; *

Hi everybody, I just notice a strange behaviour of gpar's fill argument when using non-postscript devices: The default of the argument is transparent (according to get.gpar("fill")). So as expected, the following code draws a nice red rectangle in the middle of my X11 or postscript device. pushViewport(viewport(width=0.5, height=0.5)) grid.rect(gp=gpar(fill="red"))

Dear list, I'm puzzled by the graphical output in the following example, library(grid) foo <- function(){ grid.rect(gp=gpar(fill="black")) print(get.gpar()$fill) grid.rect(width=0.2,height=0.2) } png("test.png", bg = "transparent") foo() dev.off() png("test1.png", bg = "white") foo() dev.off() It seems that the default value of

Hi Deepayan and everyone, I need to add a common legend to a group of latice graphs, I have tried different ways using viewport and grid.draw without success. Here is what I have: plot.new() library(grid) library('IDPmisc') print(plot1, split=c(1,1,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot4, split=c(2,1,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot2, split=c(1,2,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot5, split=c(2,2,2,4),

Dear R-users, For the past few days, I have been trying to find the reason why some of my plots were showing symbols of different sizes, while I thought I was using the same .cex arguments everywhere. The problem is exemplified by the following example code where the xyplot and grid.points functions are used. The scaling factor is set to 0.84 in both the functions settings, but one can see

Dear HelpeRs, I have a script where I save several thousands of graphics. These are then used in Latex through Sweave. Unfortunately R crashes while making these plots and Windows pops up some message that I run low on virtual memory. I tried to save the plots using pdf(), windows() and postscript() and also tried to run it with R CMD BATCH myscript.R. But after a while R slows down and crashes

Dear all, I'm stuck with the following problem: I generate graphs using both the grid system (with lattice) and the base system. I'd like to be able to identify these graphs later on with a bit of identifying text (e.g. a date and some comments). Adding text to these graphs cannot be done using a common system if you want to save them as emf files. I now use: mtext("labelling

Dear R users I plot the trellis graphics by using the lattice package. Everything is OK. Now, I want set some parameters of the trellis graphics. 1. The tick label site. By default, only two tick labels had been output in x-axis of my plot. I want output four or five tick labels. In the traditional graphics system, it will be very easy. Just not output the axis in plot by use the parameter

Hi! When inserting R plots into a document using odfWeave, I fought for a while to get Lattice plots use the same text size as base plots. I eventually discovered that specifying a point size via e.g. svg(pointsize=10) has no effect on Lattice plots. One needs to adjust the size manually via: trellis.par.set(fontsize=list(text=10, points=8)) This is also developed for both Lattice and ggplot2 by

Folks: I would like to write two lines of text in two different font sizes (or faces or ...) as the title ("main") of a trellis plot. The following code does it, but not well: xyplot((0:1)~(0:1), main = textGrob(lab=c("Some Text","Some More Text"),y=c(.95,.8), gp=gpar(cex=c(1.2,1.0))) ) There is too much space between the title text and the plot. I assume

Dear Rhelp, I would like to get alternate tick labels for the xyplot: library(lattice) library(grid) xy <-xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, ??? main= "Some plot", ??????? groups = rowpos, type = "a", ??? ??????????? page???? = function(n){ ???????????????????????? grid.text(LETTERS[j], ???????????????????????? y = 0.95, ???????????????????????? x = 0.15,

Hi everyone,I'm trying to figure out how to use gPath and the documentation is not very helpful :( I have the following plot object: plot-surrounds:: background plot.gTree.378:: background guide.gTree.355:: (background.rect.345, minor-horizontal.segments.347, minor-vertical.segments.349, major-horizontal.segments.351, major-vertical.segments.353) guide.gTree.356::
