similar to: Spacing and margins in plot

Similar to my last question, I want to tighten up the spacing and margins in a plot I am doing with lattice. Here are the commands I'm using: data <- data.frame(x=c(1:3, 1:3), y=c(1:3, 1:3*2), cat=c("foo","foo","foo","bar", "bar","bar")) xyplot(panel=panel.superpose, y~x, data=data, groups=cat, type="b",

With much help from Chuck Cleland, I was able to get xyplot to generate the plot I wanted. I'm trying to write a script (that can be read using source("file")) to create the plots I want and save them to files. If I type the following lines into the R (in interactive mode), the correct plot gets saved into the file myfile.ps with a size of 4,096 bytes: ----------------------------

Dear R users: I assigned students to make some graphs and I'm having trouble answering some questions that they have. We are all working on R 2.1 on Fedora Core Linux 4 systems. 1. In the plot, the axis is not labeled by "numbers", but rather scientific notation like "-2e+08" or such. We realize that means -200,000,000. We want to beautify the plot. We would rather

With some help from those with expertise on this list, I managed to produce a plot using trellis that looked like I wanted it to look. Now, I need to take the same plot and make the lines on it color, but I want to specify the color for the lines myself. I've managed to make the key use the colors I want. I've managed to make the symbols of the actual plot use the colors I want. But I

I using lattice to make some plots and I want to make the y-axis on some of these plots use a log scale. In the following plot: x <- 1:10 y <- 2^x xyplot(log10(y) ~ x) I get tick marks on the y-axis at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0. I would rather have just 3 tick marks at 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 but labeled 10, 100, and 1000. I know this can be done using the "at" and

Dear colleagues, I wish to create a figure with 6 plots arranged vertically with no spacing between them as they all have a common x-axis. However, using the code below I'm unable to get the plot area the same size for each plot. The bottom plot with the x-axis label is smaller than the others, as is the top plot which has larger margins. How can I get the plot region the same size for

I'm running R from an Xterm window is OSX-Tiger. Graphical windows appear as they should, but I'm having trouble copying from them--using cmd+c or the Copy option in the Edit menu won't place the graph in the clipboard (when I paste into a running OS X app, I get whatever was the last copied thing from a non-x11 window). Any ideas on how to copy from a xterm-launched graphical

Hi, I tried to stack two charts on top of each other using the following R functions: par(mfrow=c(2,1)) plot(rnorm(1:3),xaxt="n",xlab="") plot(rnorm(1:3)) This created two charts, one on top of the other, but there is too much space between them. Does anyone know how to elimiate the space in between the charts? Thanks, -- Tom [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Why does the upper left panel (in the plot below) not have a gray background? Cheers, Marius require(grid) require(gridBase) pdf(file="Rplot.pdf", width=8, height=8, onefile=FALSE) ## set up the grid layout gl <- grid.layout(5, 5, widths=unit(c(1.8, 8, 0.8, 8, 0.8), "cm"), heights=unit(c(0.8, 8, 0.8, 8, 1.5), "cm")) if(FALSE) grid.show.layout(gl)

I'm using barplot2 to plot some data. Is there any way to determine the width of the bars in the generated plot? I know that barplot2 returns a list of the coordinates of the center of each bar, but since there is some white space between each bar, I don't know how to get the width of each bar. Jamie

I have some plots that I generating using R (using trellis, plot, and barplot2) that I want to include in a PowerPoint presentation I am giving. My computer is running OS X. I find that presentations are easier to read when there is light text on a dark background and would like to generate plots that fit that style. The plots I am generating are all grayscale. Is there an easy way to get R to

I have a barplot I have created using barplot2 and I have been able to add points and lines (using the points and lines methods, respectively). I now need to add some polygons (triangles in particular), that I want to be shaded to match bars in the plot. I can get the coordinates of the corners of the triangles, but don't know how to draw the triangles. I know there is the grid.polygon

I have a data frame with three columns, type (a factor with two values: "Monolithic" and "Compositional"), size (numeric), and states (numeric). I want to create a plot where size goes on the x-axis and states goes on the y-axis. In this plot, I want two lines, one where the type is "Monolithic" and one where the type is "Compositional". I think this can

It takes a lot of sweat to generate a composite plot with R ... sigh. I though I was almost done when I met the umpteenth hurdle. I cannot place a nice title on the 2nd plot (raw signal) on the layout. I do not have control on where either the "main" option of "plot" function, or "title", place the text string which keeps dysplaying chopped from above. I also tried

Hello I'm plotting 6 graphs using "mfrow = c(2, 3)". In these plots, only graphs in the first column have titles for the y axis, and only the ones in the last row have titles for the x axis. I'd like all plots to be of the same size, and I'm trying to keep them as near each other as possible, but I'm having the following problem. If I make a single call to par(mar =

Dear R experts, it would be very kind if you could help me with two wireplot problems. First, when I make a wireplot and transform it into an .eps using the postscript function the eps-file leaves always a lot of space below the plot, as if it would leave space for a legend or something like that. How can i get the plot into the bottom corner without the space below? The space is not there when

Yes, I already had a look on previous posts but nothing is really helpful to me. The code is: postscript(filename, horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, paper="special", bg="white", family="ComputerModern", pointsize=10); par(mar=c(5, 4, 0, 0) + 0.1); plot(x.nor, y.nor, xlim=c(3,6), ylim=c(20,90), pch=normal.mark); gives error Error in plot.new() : figure margins too

Hi, I want to do something like this: par(mfrow=c(7,7)) for (i in 1:49) hist(RATDACOM[SUBJNO==i],breaks=0.5+(0:6), main="",xlab="",ylab="",xaxt="n",yaxt="n") (Don't think about what RATDACOM and SUBJNO are.) I get an error Error in plot.new() : Figure margins too large. 36 histograms with mfrow=c(6,6) work. But the 36 histograms

Dear all, May I suggest to add an example in the help page of the colors() function ? The following code could be useful to easily choose any color from colors() : ## Millot G. (2011), p.71. ## Figure displaying all the 657 built-in color names of colors(). palette(colors()) tempo<-NULL for(i in 14:1){tempo<-c(tempo, rep(i,50))} windows(width=10) # replace by quartz(width=10) for MacOS and

I am using the following commands: postscript(file="test.eps",paper="special",width=6,height=6,horizontal=FALSE) # fake data x <- c(12,13,14) y <- c(41,42,43) plot(x,y,type="n",xlab=expression(paste("log ",nu[peak]," [Hz]",sep="")),ylab=expression(paste("log ",L[peak]," [",ergs,"
