similar to: Control of vertical spacing in Lattice key text?

It would appear to me that there is a bug in the postscript device when multiple pages are required. Line widths can be only 1 after the first page. I have not seen reference to this as a problem before. test.device <- function() { # looks like the problem is in the postscript device postscript(file = paste("Test.ps"), horizontal = F) on.exit(dev.off())

I've never had this problem before and can't see what could be different from other times I've used keys with lattice. It appears that auto.key is being taken as TRUE when I specify a key list. The list I specify seems to be ignored. Where can I place a browser to figure out what is going on? Having made a list key.symbol from trellis.par.get, and specified a scales list and a

In 'normal' plotting, by using text(.... outer = TRUE), I can set a title that can refer to multiple plots. I'm trying to achieve a similar effect with several trellis objects with which I wish to use a common key. I can only think of complicated ways of achieving such an end by using a separate grid graphic which didn't have any plot, but text only. Is there something more

Recently I've encountered a phenomenon that can be illustrated thus: > bwplot(runif(45)*100) Depending on the random seed, one or other or both of the outer tick labels are not labelled, even though there'd be heaps of space to do so. The same happens with the postscript device. I can get them both to appear if I add an excessive xlim parameter like so: > bwplot(runif(25)*100,

Hi, I posted a while ago about 'overlap' problems using png/jpeg. If what Patrick Connolly suggests is truly happening, I think the following may be related. My new problem is with the following code (the overlap is still there if I use png() instead of postscript(), compounded by the difficulty described below): tmp <- matrix(runif(16000), nrow=16)

In "normal" plots, I can do an axis at side = 2 and a different one at side = 4. I've not been able to figure out how to do the same thing with lattice plots. The scales list can have only one sublist named y. I had thought of using a separate viewport alongside with the text for the axis label, but I can't see how I could get the ticks to work. Ideas appreciated. Thanks.

I have a square matrix wherein a '*' indicates an HSD between the levels indicated by row name and column name. The '.' is simply marking the diagonal. A blank indicates the same group A B C D E F G H I J K L M N A . B . C * * . D * * . E * * * . F * * * .

I've been looking at the kinship package which looks as though it might be appropriate for my purposes. What I can't find is any reference to the data that is used in the example code. A dataframe called d10 with column names, upn, dadid, momid, sex and affect is required. One can get an idea of what sort of values should be in most columns from the description in the pedigree function,

Dear, Thanks for your help. My question is the title can not completely show in the drawing area when the title is too long. So, I need to change the value of cex.main each time. Could you help me to control the title display area?

Of course, that's as trivial as it gets on the command line, but I can't work out how to get a column of numbers that are entered as "10^5" from its 'character' format into a numeric one? I feel a bit embarrassed asking such a simple question. Too much Easter.... Thanks -- Patrick Connolly HortResearch Mt Albert Auckland New Zealand Ph: +64-9 815 4200 x 7188

The xyplot help page gives quite a lot of information how to use key and indicates that legend needs to be used if multiple keys are needed. However, it gives only a brief description of what the grob needs to contain to do multiple keys. I've only used the occasional grid function in panel functions, so I don't have much of a sense of how grobs are constructed. I've been unable to

Some years ago when I used S-PLUS, I seem to remember, there was a discussion about a simple method of removing trailing spaces from vector elements. I'd be fairly sure the same would work in R, but I can't find any mention of anything like it in the R archives or with help.search(). There are ways I could do it with substring(), but I seem to remember there was something more elegant.

Hi, Now suppose I have just one list called FOO, which has 25 objects, e.g.: [[1]] 1 2 3 4 5 [[2]] 6 7 8 9 10 . . . And I want to do something like: FRED <- data.frame(cbind(unlist(FOO[[1]]), unlist(FOO[[2]]), # ... for all 25 subsets )) Is it possible to do this, without doing unlist(FOO[[i]]) 25

I've been asked about "Canonical Variance Analysis" (CVA). I don't see any reference to it searching the R site. Does it go by other names? Genstat describes it thus: Canonical variates analysis operates on a within-group sums of squares and products matrix, calculated from a set of variates and factor that specifies the grouping of units. It finds linear combinations of the

I'm baffled. When I run make check after installing from source, I get a Error 2. From my understanding of how these things work, it would appear to be coming from this (as at the end of base-Ex.Rout.fail: > has.VR <- require(MASS, quietly = TRUE) Attaching package 'MASS': The following object(s) are masked from package:base : confint confint.lm nclass.FD nclass.scott

I investigated why I was getting this error message...

I can use a postscript device to produce a file which I can open with the Gimp, then save quite a good png file. If I try to use the png() function directly, I get something rather like a graphics screen dump.
