Hello, I'm trying to add a symbol (Delta) to plot legend with text using "expression(paste())" but this disables the text.font that allows to use bold or italic text. as follows: x=c(1:10) y=c(1:10) plot(x,y) legend(1,10,legend=c("A","B","C",expression(paste(Delta, D))), pch=c(24,18,17,16),cex=2,text.font=3,bty="n") Any suggestion to

Hello, I need to change the font for one of the items (C. elegans) in my legend to italic. Can someone suggest how to accomplish this? legend('bottomright', bty='n', c('C. elegans range', 'Study area'), cex=0.8, fill=c('light gray', 'white'), border=c('black','black')) I tried using lab.font=c(1,3) but R ignored and did not write

Hello, A bit of fairly simple code, yet I don't seem to be able to manipulate it quite as much as I would like: 1) It would be nice if the objects appearing in the legend were aligned, and by aligned I mean the boxes are centered over the lines. Do I need to adjust the use of "NA" in the code below to accomplish this? Here's how it appears on my machine:

Hola He estado tratando varias formas de colocar el subíndice para los grados de libertad del F test y la expresión adj; y sencillamente no funciona. legend("topright",legend=c(expression('r[adj]=0.40'),expression('F[3,23]=15.43'),expression('P < 0.001')),col=black, bty='n',cex=0.9) Luego al tratar de colocar las cusriva utilizando par(font=3)

I have made a minor hack to "legend" (in R 1.0.0, but I didn't notice any changes to legend in the 1.0.1 NEWS) to allow the legend to be formatted in multiple columns, or horizontally (number of columns <- number of legend items). (I find this helpful when I have lots of legend items and not a lot of vertical space to squeeze the legend into.) (Another hack I've considered

Dear R-help members I would be grateful if anyone could help me with the following problem: 1: I changed the font style of the plant names (along x-axis, under the bars) to "italic" . How can I avoid that the font in the legend also changes to "italic"? 2. I would like to place the plant names (along x-axis, under the bars) in a way that : a) the first plant name is under the

Dear All: Greetings! I am able to produce an "xyplot" in R; But I am not able to put multiple legends on it! So for that matter, I have saved the "xyplot" and reproduced the same using the simple "plot" option. Then using the "legend" option I successfully placed the require text and its corresponding value over it. Now, when I try to copy it as a

Hi, I'd like to make the text in my legends italic, but I can't figure out how to do so. font=3 doesn't work. Googling brings up the possibility of expression(italic()), which produces italics, but I can't get this to work with my label data, which is a vector of strings: legend(locator(1), legend = levels(factor(label.vector)), col = plotting.colours, pch =plotsym.bw,

Hi, As part of the legend to a plot, I need to have the "n" in italics because it is a requirement of the journal I aim to publish in: "This study, n = 3293" Presently I have: legend(20, 105, "This study, n = 3293", pch=1, col=rgb(0,0,0,0.5), pt.cex=0.3, cex=0.8, bty="n") I suppose I could leave a blank in place of the "n",

Hi, I have a graph and I would like to write some values inside the legend that were saved in a variable. Please revise the code below in which I've wrote 2 different legends, but I am not happy with either of them. What I want is a legend with tile "Legend" and underneath a line with a name and a value like that: value = 2. #Code begin: # ------------------- a = 2 # result of a

<> Hello One sometimes (quite often really ) marvel at the choice of defaults in R's graphic engine. For some obscure reason, mtext uses the typographical descender (bottom of letters) to align text. That is: "gG" will end up slightly higher that "GG". Depending on the font, "Q" might end up higher than "O". (for explanation of baseline

Hi, I need to italicize the journal in a citation but have thus far failed. How can I make 'Journal of Something' below italic but leave the rest? mtext( "See Author1 and Author2 (2007) , \"Title\", Journal of Something , pp. 1-50.", side = 3, outer = T, line=-0.75, cex = 0.7, at= 0.04, adj = 0, font = 1, family = "Times") -- View this message in

Hi, I have a problem with aligning text which I'm adding to a plot using "mtext". I would like to specify the position of the right hand end of the text string, relative to the device (in the left-right direction). I've been looking at the use of the argument "adj". But this can't be used to specify the rightmost point of the text. Neither does it specify exactly

Full_Name: Drew Tyre Version: 1.4.0 OS: Win 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (140.253.74.225) When creating a rather complex plot, the resulting figures 'shrink' when either copied to the clipboard or saved as a metafile using the GUI menu. Also saving as postscript or pdf causes the same problem, as does printing the figure directly from the graphics window. Only the figure areas shrink,

Hi I believe this is a clipping bug in the 'graphics' package. A simpler version of the problem is this ... plot(1:10) mtext("margin-label", side=2, at=9, las=1, line=1, adj=0) par(mfg=c(1,1)) ## Only the text within the plot region is drawn mtext("margin-label", side=2, at=9, las=1, line=1, adj=0, col="red") I have committed a fix to the development

I am trying to create a plot that has multiple plot characters for each point (e.g. a point within a triangle, a triangle within a square, etc). The workaround I have found to do this is by plotting twice, as in this example: x <- c(1.1, 2.3, 4.6) y <- c(2.0, 1.6, 3.2) plot(x, y) points(x,y, pch=20, col="red", cex=0.5) This works, but perhaps there is a better way to do it in one

Hola. Tengo un gráfico que tiene muchos names.arg (demasiados...), de modo tal que le vendría bien al lector usar colores intercalados, tal que el primero sea azul, el segundo negro, el tercero azul, cuarto negro, y así. Es decir, definir un vector "similar" a este: rep(c("black", "blue"), length(barras[,1]/2) que permita pintar uno y uno en este gráfico:

Dear all, maybe I have misunderstood something but to me it seems like a minor error in the help for ?legend for the argument 'bg'. There it says: bg: the background color for the legend box. (Note that this is only used if 'bty = "n"'.) I think, however, that it should be changed to: bg: the background color for the legend box. (Note that this
