similar to: axis

Dear listserv, Here is my latest formatting problem. I would like to rotate the x-axis labels by 45 degrees on a _barplot_. Apparently this is slightly different from the example given in the R FAQ, which is for rotating the x-axis labels on a scatterplot (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f). I have adapted that code, as best I could, and

Rotated text for axis labels should be possible with one of par(srt=90) axis(1,at,labels) par(srt=0) or axis(1,at,labels,srt=90) (or similar with crt instead of srt) None of these works in pre0.65 or in 0.64.2 _ platform sparc-sun-solaris2.7 arch sparc os solaris2.7 system sparc,

Dear R-users moving from Splus to R (under Windows), I notice that command "srt" within a plot in the original Splus code is ignored by R. For example, if a plot something and then include the line of code axis(1, at=Time, labels=Text, srt=45, adj=1) the srt=45 command within the axis() command fails to draw Text at 45 degrees on the x-axis in R but it works properly in Splus. I will

Hello Core Team, I sent this patch over a year ago. It looks like it was sent in response to another user's complaint which echoed some of my own observations about problems in the documentation for 'text'. Did anyone have a chance to look it over? I'd like to get it out of my queue. Thanks, Frederick On Tue, Apr 11, 2017 at 12:01:05PM -0700, frederik at ofb.net wrote: >

Hi, I have been working through one of the examples on the FAQ about rotating the labels on the x axis, I need to do the same but for the y axis. I have managed to change some of the code, but I am still not getting there, there is still something wrong. My syntax is as follows: > par(mar = c(5, 7, 4, 2) + 0.1) > plot(1 : 8, yaxt = "n", ylab = "") > axis(2,

Dear R users, I am encountering a x axis labeling problem on quite basic plots... I use the following code which displays the labels on the x-axis with a 45 degrees angle: p <- plot(myobject1, type="b", col="red",cex=1, lwd=2, axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE, ylim=c(0,70)) title(main="title", font.main=4) axis(side=1, lab=F) text(axTicks(1), par("usr")[3] - 2,

Dear all, I stumbled over a problem recently when trying to use srt with text() on a windows device. What I intended to do was to plot a simple regression line, and to rotate a piece of text such that the text has the same angle as the regression line. However, the text is always plotted in a slightly wrong angle: #### x=1:10 #create arbitrary x and y values y=x*2-rnorm(1:10)

Hi guys, I use R 2.6.2 and Windows XP. I’ve got the following question: I wrote a lot of text into the margin of a plot. When I use the “jpeg”-function, only a little part of the margin text is displayed in the final jpeg? Any ideas to change it? Source-Code: datenbankdaten<-data.frame(LETTERS[1:20],

Hi, I would like to place a line (tilted at an angle) in the margin of an R plot. Is there any way to place such an annotation outside the plotting area? As an alternative, being able to plot a rotated character (the pipe, |) in the margin would be sufficient. The problem is that mtext doesn't work with the srt option. As a further alternative, if I could put a legend in the margin, I

I searched the forms (i.e., R Search)?and come up with the following suggested link: ?http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f I tried to implement what I believe was being implied by that URL and came up with the below: barplot(WorldPhones[1,], ??????? ylim=c(0, 50000), ??????? axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE, ???????

Dear R-help team I have tried hard to turn my Y axis 90 degrees, so that it is written horizontally, and placing it above the Y axis, but I did not succeed. I have tried to adapt the following functions: - plot() - title() - mtext() And some more that did not prove to be useful (e.g. text() etc). The closest I got to my aim was with mtext(): mtext("Yield

I am trying to tweak how my categorical x-axis labels are formatted in my bar graph. Specifically, I would like to a) decrease the spacing between lines (e.g. spacing between Dialium and guianensis) b) right justify the text and c) have each species name align with the center of the corresponding bar graph. A simplified version of my code thus far is as follows. I am using RStudio v.

Hi, I was trying to run the following, where the labels on the x axis are dates and need to be converted to characters. It did not work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. > text(axTicks(1),par("usr)[3]-2,srt=45,adj=1,labels=as.character(c("2008-01-08","2008-08-10","2008-08-22","2008-09-03", "2008-09-15")), xpd=T, cex=0.8) Error:

Hello, I remarked that the function ## Default S3 method: text (x, y = NULL, labels = seq(along = x), adj = NULL,pos = NULL, offset = 0.5, vfont = NULL,cex = 1, col = NULL, font = NULL, ...) accepts vectors of arguments (of the same length) except for the parameter adj. When passing a vector of information for adjusting the labels, only the first value is taken. Any special reason for this ?

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

Hi, I'm trying to customize a window with 2 graphs. I'm able to do the first one with something like this general example par(mfrow=c(1,2),cex.axis=0.85,cex.lab=0.80,mai=c(1.3,1,0.5,0),las=3) bplot<-barplot(bar.values,names.arg=cf.names,width=0.5,ylab="% Area held") abline(h=0.3,lty=3,col="red") abline(h=0.1,lty=3,col="blue")

Hi! (I'd like to be able to access your bugzilla, BTW) The documentation for parameter "adj" of text() in R 3.3.3 is hard to understand (unless you know what it does already): "adj one or two values in [0, 1] which specify the x (and optionally y) adjustment of the labels. On most devices values outside that interval will also work." What is the meaning of the values? I

I'm trying to format text on a plot such that the string is vertical but the letters are horizonal. I tried text(1,1,label="output", srt=270) This gives the string rotation I want, but that rotates the entire "output" so the letters are also rotated. I've also tried text(1,1,label="output", srt=270, crt=270) to no avail. par()$crt doesn't seem to affect

Hi R-users I'm a relative newbie and uses R mostly for graphical purpose. I have a layout problem when plotting a scatterplot and a barplot using par(new=TRUE). The baseline of the x-axis is not positioned equal for the two plotting functions (see picture) and I have been unable to find out how this is changed. http://www.nabble.com/file/p18025066/pic.jpeg I have added the script if this

I have a simple barplot that looks fine in the R graphics device window. However when I export it to png I am losing the x-label. It must be an obvious problem but I cannot see it. Trying to resize the plot does not seem to help. Code is below. Any help gratefully received. ###### Start Code############ Groups <-c(21.8,45, 43, 17.2, 8.3, 18) names(Groups) <- c("Exeter",
