Hi all, I've got R for windows 2.3.1 I'm trying to modify my lattice histograms. The following does reset the y-label to blue, but I cannot turn off the label (alpha=0), nor shift label position (I'm assuming that is what lineheight is for). Is 'lineheight' the equivalent of 'line' in mtext? Am I erring somehow? Thanks!

For R Version 1.1.1 and R-devel (Linux)... Sorry, there's no time to fix myself now {e.g., after starting a new device} : par(las=3); plot(1:10); par(las=1) ; mtext("mtext") Gives a left-adjusted (as for adj = 0) mtext, even if par("adj") is still 0.5 Note that I'm also not convinced that mtext() should follow par("las") as it does in the

Dear all, Our quite basic function mtext() does wrong adjustments in some parameter configurations. This gets obvious when using multi line texts: There is no way to properly adjust text perpendicular to axis 2, for example. Best Jens Oehlschl?gel m <- matrix(1:9, 3) colnames(m) <- c("several\nlines", "several\nlines", "several\nlines") par(mfrow=c(2,2))

I seem to remember this coming up before, but I can't find it any messages I've saved or in the archives (searching by subject). I want to rotate mtext so that it's perpendicular to the right side. I tried srt=90 and lots of other values, but it seems to be ignored. Is there a way to do this? ______________________________________________________________________ Stuart Luppescu

hi all, It's not clear to me how (or if) I can pass multiple values for lty to a key in xyplot? I've tried: lines=list(lty=1:3), to no avail. Do I need to use something other than auto.key? (Deepayan, if you're out there, I have your book and must admit the answer isn't jumping out at me.) thanks in advance! Michael Folkes example code: #____________________________

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

Hello all, I've been using binconf (package Hmisc) at a range of alpha values and noticed that using the 'Wilson' method when alpha is larger (i.e. narrow CI), results in the upper value being smaller than the lower value. The 'exact' and 'asymptotic' methods give results in the realm I'd expect. But the help file suggests: "Following Agresti and Coull, the

Hello, Does anyone know if it's possible to change the text direction of mtext? I'd like to use 'mtext(side=2)' but the text should be 'left-to-right'. I couldn't find an argument for that in the help files. Thanks for any suggestions Tobias -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/changing-text-direction-of-mtext-tf4321931.html#a12307342 Sent from

Perhaps somebody could clarify for me if the following is a floating point matter or otherwise, and how am I to correct for it? > floor(100*.1) [1] 10 > 100*(1.0-.9) [1] 10 > floor(100*(1-0.9)) [1] 9 Thanks!

mtext(..., outer = TRUE) does not seem to center the text in the outer margins as it did previously. Reproduce with example(plot.profile.nls, package = "nls") On versions of the development sources before November 17 this produced main and subtitles that were centered horizontally on the page. After that the main title (from mtext("..", side = 3, outer = TRUE)) is centered

Dear R users, I used plot() and mtext() functions to draw a plot. The numbers: 0,20,35, 40,60,80,100 were in the vertical direction. I'd like to transfer them into the horizontal direction. plot(0,0,xaxt="n",type="n", ylim=c(0,100)) mtext("35",side=2,at=35) Any suggestion? Thanks. Rebecca [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-users, I haven't found a way in the searchable archive to overplot a contour (lines) over a surface. I have a (n,m) matrix that represents sea surface temperature that I have plotted using image.plot(), filled.contour() or image(). I would like to overplot this image with some contour lines of mixed layer depth values(same size matrix). How can I do this? Any help is appreciated,

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

I want to assign different colors to different strings using mtext(...). However, when I use something like mtext(text=c("string1","string2","string3"), col=c("black","blue","red"), side=3, line=0) string2 and string3 are printed over string1. When I use paste("string1","string2","string3"), the series

Hello, Does anyone know how to get the rounding method used for the axis tick numbers/values in plot()? I'm using mtext() to plot the values used to plot vertical and horizontal lines (using abline()) and I'd like these vertical and horizontal line values to be rounded like the axis tick values are rounded. In other words, I want numbers plotted with mtext() to be rounded in the same

I'm looking for an optimal approach to access Oracle databases via RWeb applications. I'm new to R but familiar with programming functions and web pages for the S+ Statserver. I'm now going through the motions of migrating S+/Statserver applications to R/RWeb as a feasability exercise. I can access databases using ODBC directly in R or S, and using Statserver, but I have not succeeded

I'm using RODBC to read an excel file (not mine!). But I'm struggling to find a way to preserve the column names that have a numeric value. sqlFetch() drops the value and calls them f1, f2, f3,... (ie field number). this is a different approach from read.csv, which will append "V" prior to the numeric column name. sqlFetch isn't so helpful. Is there a way to get the
