similar to: Mtext and xyplot

Hi all, I'm trying to plot error bars in a lattice plot generated with xyplot. Deepayan Sarkar has provided a very useful solution for simple circumstances (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2005-October/081571.html), yet I am having trouble getting it to work when the "groups" setting is enabled in xyplot (i.e. multiple lines). To illustrate this, consider the singer data

Is there a way of controlling the font size and alignment of a footnote in an xyplot, or alternatively of using 'mtext' to place a footnote at the bottom of a graph? --Rich Richard Kittler Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. Sunnyvale, CA

Hi all, I'm trying to find a way to get xyplot to produce a second set of axes outside the right hand side of the graph. This is my progress so far: EE <- equal.count(ethanol$E, number=9, overlap=1/4) xyplot(NOx ~ C | EE, data = ethanol, prepanel = function(x, y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span = 1), xlab = "Compression Ratio", ylab = "NOx (micrograms/J)",

One of many scripts to produce 4 lattice plots on one page keeps throwing an error. I've tried manipulating the file to eliminate the error, but have not been able to do so. The error is: > source('bicarb.R') Error in source("bicarb.R") : bicarb.R:15:1: unexpected symbol 14: 15: hco33 ^ The 'h' is in column 0 so the caret would be column -1, but it's

All, I have data across 5 time points that I am graphing via xyplot, along with error bars. For one of the variables I have missing data for two of the time points. The code below is okay but I can't seem to get the lines to connect across the missing time points. Does anyone now how to rectify this?

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

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

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.

xyplot doesn't seem to want to label my x-axis with dates but instead puts the day-number for each date. begdate is the number of days since January 1, 1960 and was initially created by library(date) ... polls$begdate<-mdy.date(begmm,begdd,begyy) I create a new dataframe (pollstack) which includes begdate. In the process begdate seems to lose its date attribute so I redo it as: >

<> 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

Dear R users, About a year ago Deepayan offered a suggestion to incorporate error bars into a dotplot using the singer data as an example <<http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/63875.html>>. When I try to utilize this code with a grouping variable, I get an error stating that the subscripts argument is missing. I have tried to insert them in various ways, but cannot

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))

Hi, I am using mtext instead of the ylab argument in some plots because i want to move it away from the numbers in the axis. However, the text in the X axis, for example: par(mar=c(5, 5.5, 4, 2)); plot(data, main="plot name", xlab= 'X axis', ylab="", font=2, cex.lab=1.5, font.lab=2, cex.main=1.8); mtext('Y axis', side=2, cex=1.5, line=4,

using R 1.2.1 under LinuxPPC, using the default X11 graphics device, i can't get the cex= argument for plot() and title() to have any effect. works for text(), though. the text size for plot() and title() _is_ correct if par(cex=size) is called first. oddly, mtext() seems to pay attention to cex=, but to ignore the value set by par(). for example, > plot(1:5, 1:5,

Dear R users, Two questions: 1) Is there a way to simplify the mtext() line below ? beta=c(1,-1) m=5 plot(1) mtext( bquote(paste( beta == .(paste( "(", paste(beta, collapse=", "), ")" )) )), outer=TRUE,line=-3) 2) How do I get the embedded carriage return "\n" below to work, i.e for the text that follows it to appear on the next line? beta=c(1,-1) m=5

I have a simple graph (oode below) which looks fine on the screen but when I save it in png format the title (actually the last mtext line) is cut off. I am pretty sure that I am doing something very stupid but other than playing around with the png height and width commands which don't seem to help I have no idea of what to look for. Any suggestions or cures would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi all, I have read through the archives, but can't find a solution to this problem. I need the text direction on "dependent B", plotted in margin 4, to go top to bottom (opposite what it is now). Here's some sample code: #plot with mtext example par(mgp = c(2,1,0), mfrow=c(2,2), las=1, mar=c(2,2,2,2), omi= c(0.5,0.2,0,0.2)) a<-1:10 b<-7:16 c<-21:30 plot(a~b,

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
