similar to: rotating axis / mtext labels

Dear listserv, Here is my latest formatting problem. I would like to rotate the x-axis labels by 45 degrees on a _barplot_. Apparently this is slightly different from the example given in the R FAQ, which is for rotating the x-axis labels on a scatterplot (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f). I have adapted that code, as best I could, and

I searched the forms (i.e., R Search)?and come up with the following suggested link: ?http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f I tried to implement what I believe was being implied by that URL and came up with the below: barplot(WorldPhones[1,], ??????? ylim=c(0, 50000), ??????? axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE, ???????

Hi, I just started with R and I found that there are many options to rearrange the data to do mixed models. I want to use the reshape function. I have 2 between subject variables and one within. I was able to change the data structure but still - the result of the aov functions are calculating everything as a within subject. the table looks like this: SerialNo breed treatment distance_1

Hi, while searching for a solution i found many solutions in the internet. But the postings seemed to be many years old and the workaround was a dirty hack like this: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f Now its the year 2009 and there might have been some improvement... Does anyone know a nice and easy way to turn labels on the y axis in the

Hello: I am trying to get some text at an angle in the margins of a plot. I was accustomed under older versions of Splus to using srt in the mtext command, but that seems not to work under R, > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major 1 minor 3.0

Hi how can print x-axis labels in 45 degree in boxplot() (or plot in general)? I can use las=2 to print in 90 degree, but it looks ugly. Is there a simple option to do 45 degree easily? Thanks John

I seem to remember this coming up before, but I can't find it any messages I've saved or in the archives (searching by subject). I want to rotate mtext so that it's perpendicular to the right side. I tried srt=90 and lots of other values, but it seems to be ignored. Is there a way to do this? ______________________________________________________________________ Stuart Luppescu

Hello everyone I have problem with axis labels on graphs, I have my code as below: plot(0,0,xlim=c(1,ncol(PA)),ylim=c(1,nrow(PA)),main="Stratigraphic Range",xlab="Time Bins",ylab="Taxa",cex.axis=1.5,cex.lab=2,cex.main=2.5,mgp=c(5,1.5,0),xaxt="n") text(1:(length(strat_name)), y= 0, adj=1, srt=45,labels=strat_name,xpd=TRUE, cex=1) #adds text to x

Dear list, Has anyone created a version of SSmicmen that allows testing for group differences? The basic Michaelis-Menten equation is: (Bmax * X) / (Kd + X). The nlme package allows modeling of random effects for Bmax and Kd as needed, but I curious how I can build in group differences? I have receptor binding data for strains of mice, and following Pinheiro and Bates' lead in their

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,

Rotated text for axis labels should be possible with one of par(srt=90) axis(1,at,labels) par(srt=0) or axis(1,at,labels,srt=90) (or similar with crt instead of srt) None of these works in pre0.65 or in 0.64.2 _ platform sparc-sun-solaris2.7 arch sparc os solaris2.7 system sparc,

Just wondering: it appears that "srt" does not accept a vector of values, just a single value. I ended up using tapply() as the following code snippet shows, so it's not a major problem. I was justa little surprised that this argument (srt) differs from things like "labels," "lty," "col," and so on, all of which accept (and recycle as needed

Dear R-users moving from Splus to R (under Windows), I notice that command "srt" within a plot in the original Splus code is ignored by R. For example, if a plot something and then include the line of code axis(1, at=Time, labels=Text, srt=45, adj=1) the srt=45 command within the axis() command fails to draw Text at 45 degrees on the x-axis in R but it works properly in Splus. I will

Hello there, I would like to plot a graph with the x axis's label displayed at a 45 angle to the x axis instead of horizontal to it as the label is very long. What should I do? Thank you for your help in advance Lisa Wang Princess Margaret Hospital Toronto, Ca

Anybody know how to rotate shapes generated with the 'points' function? I'm trying to place points around a radial diagram such that the y-axis of individual shapes are oriented with the radii of the circle rather than the y-axis of the larger plot area. Perhaps something analogous to the 'srt' and 'crt' functions for text that appear under 'par'?

Full_Name: Emmanuel Paradis Version: 2.4.0 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (193.49.41.124) Adding text to a plot makes R freeze if 'srt' is given a very small negative value, eg: plot(1, type = "n") text(1, 1, "some text....", srt = -1e-8) But if 'srt = -1e-6' (or smaller) or 'srt = -1e-19' (or greater), this works. This seems to be OS-dependent:

Hello! I have two question that rose from trying to tacle the same problem in two differnet ways. What I want to do is to plot axes (only values or labels, no tick marks) in such a way that 'cex' can be very small, text can be perpendicular to the axis (as in axis(las=2) ) and the text is stil at the right position. Let me demonstrate with a small example:

Hi R-users, Could someone help me to combine bwplot and srt option (exemple srt = 45 degree or srt 90 degree)? My graphic contains 146 boxplots, I would like to label all of them.
