similar to: key in margin area

Dear List, I am trying to plot a color.legend() in the right outer margin of my device region. I have read multiple threads on the subject and still can't get it right. I have stolen an example from one of the threads to demonstrate my problem. I have extended the outer margin using par(oma()), and have used par(xpd=NA) to tell it to plot in the device region. I can get the legend to plot

Dear R users, I'm making multiple plots within the same pdf page (par(mfcol = c(5,1)), and want a legend for this at the bottom of all the plots. From previous mails it has been suggested to use par(xpd=TRUE), increase the margin at the last plot, and then draw the legend. However, when I do this, the last plot gets smaller with the same amount I increase the margin with. The problem seems to

Hi, I have been trying many of the suggested options to place a legend outside plotting area, including something like this: par(xpd=T, oma=par()$oma+c(4.5,0,1.5,0),mar=par()$mar+c(1,0,1,0) But the aspect of the four plots gets compromised when I change the margin settings. I cannot use mtext because I need to use colors for the text. I tried layout, but wouldn't let me include

Hi, please can you help me. When I add a legend to a boxplot it appears inside the plot area, how do you get it into the margins? I have already changed the parameters so there is space for it on the margin on the right hand side of the graph. Thanks, Emily [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

To all, Apologies if this question has already been asked but I can't find anything. I can't seem to think of more specific search terms. I want to display/create a file of a pure plot with a specific height and width. I want to utilise every single pixel inside the axes. I do not want to display any margins, legends, axes, titles or spaces around the edges. Is this possible?

I propose the following small changes to pairs.default. The point is to allow control of the outer margin settings, so that there is for example room for legends. [Note also the issue re the setting of par()$usr on exit] ---------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Replace function (x, labels, panel = points, main = NULL, font.main = par("font.main"),

Dear useRs, I'm having a slight problem with plotting on 2 axes. While the following code works alright on screen, the saved output does not turn out as desired i.e. the secondary y-axis does not display fully. Just run the code and look at image output. Suggestions please... thanks, Muhammad --- rm(list=ls()) x <- 1:100 y <- 200:300 par(mar=c(5,5,5,7)+0.1) # inner margin

Dear R-list members, I am trying to put a legend just outside the plotting area of a graph. 1. Is there some way to plot symbols on the figure margin, in the same way as function "mtext" can write on the margin? 2. Is there some way to use the "legend" function (or some equivalent function) to plot a legend on the figure margin? 3. Any other way to plot either symbols or a

Hello, I'm not very experienced with lattice and I was wondering whether I get get some hints from you how to create a pure heatmap (using levelplot), without any axis, title, legend, margin at all... I just want to see the coloured squares, nothing else. Any suggestions? Antje

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

Dear Rs I have a 3x3 multiple plot. I would like to have a overall legend in the outer right margin. From the help archive, I found that it can be done by setting par(xpd=NA). However, I couldn't find the correct values for x and y co-ordinates for the legend. Please find the code snippet below: par(mfrow=c(3,3), mar=c(4,4,0.9,0.5), oma=c(1,2,2,4),cex.main=1.1)

Hi, I'm just coming to grips with "for" looping etc. and have a bit of a problem: I want to generate a sequence which goes 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 26 27 ... i.e. 8 consecutive numbers then 5 missed then the next 8 numbers etc. I was going to do this using the seq() function but couldn't figure out how so I thought I'd try a loop: for (x in seq(1,650,13)) {

Is there a simple way to put a legend outside the plot area for a simple plot? I found... (at http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/) # Expand right side of clipping rect to make room for the legend *par(xpd=T, mar=par()$mar+c(0,0,0,4))* # Graph autos (transposing the matrix) using heat colors, # put 10% of the space between each bar, and make labels # smaller with horizontal y-axis labels

Hi all, Quick question: What function can I use to draw a line in the margin of a plot? segments() and lines() both stop at the margin. In case the answer depends on exactly what I'm trying to do, see below. I'm using R v. 2.8.1 on Windows XP. Cheers, Alan I'm trying to make a horizontal barplot with a column of numbers on the right side. I'd like to put a line between the

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 again, another problem: This (below) isn't working and as far as I can see it damn well should. What I'm trying to acomplish is to run several data sets through the same graphing procedure, but for the pH data use a log y axis. using this code all graphs are drawn with a linear axis. Surely I should be able to set the ylog option to T using another object (logaxis). for (n in

Dear all I try to print 9 plots on a page, arranged as the code shows below. nf <- layout(matrix(c(1,0,2,0,0,3,0,4,0,5,0,6,0,0,0,0,7,0,8,9), 10,2)) layout.show(nf) but when I try to plot, an error message Fehler in plot.new() : Grafikr?nder zu gro? appears to verify p.e. with plot(runif(10:1)) i tried with plot(runif(10:1), ann=F) to produce more space, but neither. The second

I am trying to set the margins of a plot with mai and I get a strange output. I write: plot(rnorm(1000),type="l",mai=c(1,1,1,1)) and what I get is a plot with unchanged margins and a column of four 1 plotted on the top margin.

I am creating a CDF plot function more user-friendly than any default r function. Depending upon the bimodality of the data (it is often bimodal), or any other strange data trends, the points can end up gathering in just about any corner of the plot. So, when I add a legend, whether I choose to add it in the bottom right, top left, or wherever, it will sometimes end up putting the legend right

Dear R-help members, with the help of one of you the following R-Code was developed. No I have the (probably simple) problem that I want to increase font size of "text" and "ylab" names from 1 to 2. Unfortunately I'm not able to adjust the margin so, that the plot is appers complete (all names readable) on a 8:14 Inch scale plot. Some times I get the error message that
