Dear R Users, I am trying to plot a barchart with a line graph superimposed (using par(new=TRUE)). There are 12 bars and 12 corresponding points for the line graph. This is fine, except that I'm encountering two problems: 1) The position of the points (of the line graph) are not centred on the middle (horizontally) of each corresponding bar. In fact, whilst the first point is located on the

Hey list, I have a barplot with a line plot overlayed (on the 2nd y axis) and it looks fine except that the origin (0) on the 2nd y axis (side=4) is not lining up with the origin on the 1st y-axis (side=2, from the barplot). Is there a way to either shift the 2nd y-axis (line plot) down or readjust the barplot axis? Just as a reference, here is the code: barplot2(temp$precip,

Hi, I am working on barplot. I need to plot x-axis but scale on x axis is very upto 15 while my data is upto 19. pdf("image.pdf", width=10 , height =13) par(mar=c(5,22.5,2,2)) barplot(t(data[,2:3]), beside=TRUE, col=c(rgb(.537, .769, .933),rgb(.059, .412, .659)), width = 1, horiz=TRUE,cex.names=.9, border ="white",las=1, cex.axis= 1, cex.lab=1.2)

Hi, I am trying to add a line plot of barplot, and while the following script works: barplot(DATA1,bty='c') par(new=T) plot(DATA2,type="l",axes=F,xlab="",ylab="",bty='c') axis(4) for some reason the y axis' do not align (the 0s are not in the same position). Is this because I am trying to overlay plot on barplot, and is there any way around

Dear list, I would like to plot 2 series of numbers with very different ranges/scales as lines on the same plot. I assumed this is commonly done and easy, but I have not found any help files (e.g. axis() or matplot() that show how. I've searched many old posts to no avail. I'll be very grateful for any suggestions on how this is done. Best, Zack

Hi, I'am trying to make a multiple bar plot over a map and I'm having difficulties with the distance between axes labels and the axis. Trying to control this with mgp does not help because it controls both axes simultaneously. For example, with default values (mgp = c(3, 1, 0)) y-axis labels are ok, but x-axis labels are not. Setting mgp = c(3, 0, 0) gives good x-axis labels but the

Hi. While there is an x-axis set up for: > plot.factor(factor(1:3)) this axis is not present for > plot.factor(factor(1:3), col="red") which actually should just be the same as the first plot and call barplot(table(.)), shouldn't it? Where did the ticks and labels go? Note that > barplot (table(factor(1:3)), col="red") has the x-axis. Something funky is going

Howdy. Been running into a bit of trouble with plotting. Seems that axes=F is not "working". Whenever I plot (either a dataframe or xts/zoo series) and I set axes=F along with xlab/ylab="" I still get the default axes printed in my chart. Consider this: #Create some sample data, both 50 units of blah series2 = c(1:50) series1 = rep(25:74) testdf1 = as.data.frame(series1)

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

Hello, I am a beginner with R. I read many tutorials and the FAQ but I cannot solve my problem. I use barplot() to view my graph. I try to get more interval marks on y axis. I wasn't able to find options in 'help(barplot)' or 'help(par)' to do this with barplot(). I seek for another option to print y values on my bars like on the graph of the R homepage:

Dear all, I'm trying to plot, in the same window, two different series, using barplot() for the first one and plot() for the second. What happens is that the second chart has a different axes origin, therefore the final plot is wrong. This piece of code shows the differences between the values of par()$usr: barplot(coredata(Z0), beside=TRUE, ylim=c(0,100)); par()$usr;

Hello all, Hoping that there is a fairly simple solution to my query... I'm trying to overlay a line plot of some data onto a barplot of different data. The y-axes are different for each set of data but the x-axes are the same (1:12, corresponding with 12 months of observations). The problem I'm having is that the centre of the bars and the points on line don't match up, which is

If I want to fiddle with the axes, I normally plot things like this for instance plot(1:5,axes=F) axis(2,labels=letters[1:5]) BUT, if I want to do remove the axes from a scatter plot matrix using i.e. pairs(cbind(runif(10),runif(10)),axes=F) I get Error in plot.default(x[, j], x[, i], xlab = "", ylab = "", axes = FALSE, : formal argument "axes" matched by

I'm using barplot with the following call: barplot(stat_data[[5]][,],axes=TRUE,axisnames=TRUE,axis.lty=1,xlab=xlab,ylab=ylab,beside=TRUE,las=1,font.lab=2,font.axis=1,legend.text=TRUE) On some data, the vertical axis does not cover the whole plot area and the last tick mark is smaller than the maximum value. I tried setting the ylim values but even with that, some plots are still not OK,

Is there a way of doing this? I'm using plot() to produce a scatter of my data, but it routinely defaults to plotting 2 sets of x axes and 2 y axes. I'd like to not plot the upper and rightmost axes. I can use 'axes=F', and then manually add axes with 'axis', but then the newly created axes do not intercept. TIA, Dan

Dear Duncan Murdoch: Thanks for your tips. By the way, I think I didn't mentioned my question very clear. What I mean to say is that, in Excel one could decide upon the axis interval unit. Please see the attached file. Likewise, is it possible in R...?

Colleagues OS 10.5 R: 2.10.1 I have a simple x-y plot for which I would like to shade the lower (or upper) part of the interior region (i.e., the area bounded by the axes). If the delineation between top and bottom were linear, it would be use to use the polygon function. However, the delineation is a curve (which I can describe by an equation). In theory, I could divide the x-axis into a

hi all, I'm trying for quite some time to have an x- and y-axis, but no entire box. >plot(..,axes=F) >axis(1) >axis(2) Gives this, but their axes do not go to the origin. Quite a number of people find this gap between the two axes disturbing. Has anyone an idea how to let these axes go to the origin? thank you in advance [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

R 2.14.1 OS X Colleagues, I am making a graphic with two y-axes. I create the label for the right-side axis with: mtext(side=4, line=1, "Some text") The label is rotated 90° counterclockwise. I would prefer that it be rotated 90° clockwise. However, srt is not supported for mtext and las does not offer this option. Is there some other means to rotate the text string? Thanks in
