I have some functions which sometimes take longer to run and it would be useful to have a progress bar showing how much time is left for the script to finish (something like a download progress bar). I tried searching but could not find it. Is this possible with R? Note: Using R version: 2.6.1 on windows xp.

Dear All, Having a bit of trouble with plotting two y variables on the same graph. I cannot manage to get the secondary y axis label on to the right of the axis - it gets plotted beyond the graphic window I assume?! The way I constructed the graph is thus: plot(data[,3],data[,2],axes=F, type="b") ## plots my data from two data colums without axes - fine axis(1, at=data[,3])

Hi all, I have a basic question concerning graphs in R. I?m using the par() function and I?m working with multiple figures by row (mfrow) but my the hight of my figures become compressed. I have 4 rows and 2 columns (because I want to plot 8 histograms (freq = FALSE ) on it. I know I can adapt my margins with for example ?oma? and ?mai? but I don?t know how to choose the size of the figure? I

Dear Users, I already posted this question: it either went unnoticed, or it is to basic (if this is so, please sent me a hint). I would like to know if there is a way to add a common legend to an arrangement of plots. In the example below, I get four plots in my device. each one has a density for 1995 and one for 2006. I have found that using legend or smartlegend I can add a legend to each plot,

Hi, I wanted to plot 2 lines on a single graph. Each graph has one axis that can be common. The code that I'm using is: ------------------------------------------------------- par(mfrow=c(1, 1)) x1 <- c(2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) x2 <- c(10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60) y1 <- c(10,12,15,22,34,21) y2 <- c(40, 130, 150, 145, 40, 30) par(las=1, mar=c(4, 4, 2, 4)) plot.new()

Dear all, I have the following problem. I have a List of time series dataframe.I'm trying to produce specific graph for each element of my list. The code is: This is my list: Lista_import<-lapply(Lista_import, function(x){ x2<-subset(x, select=c("ANNO","DICHIARANTE","PARTNER", "quota")) x2<-cast(x2, ANNO+DICHIARANTE~PARTNER) x2<-

R 2.15.1 OS X (MLion) Colleagues, I am aware that changes in mfrow / mfcol in par() affect cex (from help: In a layout with exactly two rows and columns the base value of ?"cex"? is reduced by a factor of 0.83: if there are three or more of either rows or columns, the reduction factor is 0.66). I generate a multipage PDF in which mfrow varies such that cex is impacted. This affect

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

Dear all, I'm stuck with the following problem: I generate graphs using both the grid system (with lattice) and the base system. I'd like to be able to identify these graphs later on with a bit of identifying text (e.g. a date and some comments). Adding text to these graphs cannot be done using a common system if you want to save them as emf files. I now use: mtext("labelling

I would like the text plotted with 'mtext' to be alighned like it is for printing on the console.

First of all, I apologize for the triple post, but I did not see that the word wrap on the r-help list site would render my code unusable. So here it is again. Hoping that this time it will work if you cut and paste it in your Rgui. I have a program that works well in Rgui but that does not work in a batch file (Execution halted). Here's the code (it will work on your R, but you need

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,

<> 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 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))

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.

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,

Hello All, I am drawing a graph having 18 small graphs inside using par(mfrow = c(6,3)) command. My problem is how to specify the margins of the whole 18 graphs. I used par(mar=c(6.5, 6.5, 1.5, 1.5)) for each graph separately already but it does not left any margins for the 'mtext()' for the margins of the whole 18 graphs. Any comments please. Thanks, MJK [[alternative HTML version

Colleagues, I am trying to create a PDF document in which I use margin text with two different fonts. The resulting text might be: XXXXXyZZZ where X and Z are one font and Y is the other. My plan was to do this in the following manner: mtext("XXXXX ZZZ", cex=2, adj=0.5, family=SOMEFONT) mtext("Y", cex=2, adj=??, family=DIFFERENTFONT) My question regards how to calculate
