similar to: Bold Substring in mtext (newbie question)

Hi everyone, I suspect this is an easy task however I've not been able to accomplish it. I'd like to create an mtext title which has certain words bold, the rest not bold. So far I've been able to create one which is all bold, one which is all not bold and one which has bold and not bold superimposed on one another. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Many thanks, Joe Retzer # Not

I was trying to produced bagged importance estimates of attributes in earth using the caret package with the following commands:   fit2 <- bagEarth(loyalty ~ ., data=model1, B = 10)   bagImpGCV <- varImp(fit2,value="gcv") My bootstrap estimates are produced however the second command "varImp" produces the following error:    Error in UseMethod("varImp") : no

Dear all; I wish to create a graphic object combing an xyplot() and an mtext(). My code looks like following, gmv <- { trellis.device("windows", bg="white", width = 7, height = 7) xyplot(Mvol ~ Age | Nl * Th , data = Hft1, prepanel = function(x, y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span = 1), xlab =list(label = "Age (Years)", font = 2),

Hi, all. I'm using mtext to put some labels in figure margins. Several of these labels are expressions, created with substitute: mtext(substitute(h[x](t), list(x = paste("n", 1, sep = ","))), cex = 2, font = 2, side = 4, line = 1, las = 1) I'm using this to get the subscripting (perhaps there's a better way to do that?). The problem is that the font argument

Hello forum! As the subject indicates, I am trying to make a barplot and would like my column names to be in bold. Is this possible in R without having to make my column names in mtext? Any help would be much appreciated. The code I am using is as follows. par(mar=c(3,8,2,2)) par(adj=.5) par(font=2) par(oma=c(3,3,3,3)) par(xpd=TRUE) Blot<-matrix(c(25.2995, 0.7625, 25.6135, 36.5770,

Dear R users, Two questions: 1) Is there a way to simplify the mtext() line below ? beta=c(1,-1) m=5 plot(1) mtext( bquote(paste( beta == .(paste( "(", paste(beta, collapse=", "), ")" )) )), outer=TRUE,line=-3) 2) How do I get the embedded carriage return "\n" below to work, i.e for the text that follows it to appear on the next line? beta=c(1,-1) m=5

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

<> 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

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, 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.

Hi all, I have written a note near each of my graphs using mtext. mtext(text,side=1,line=4,cex=0.5,adj=0) Then I have exported the graphs as a PDF file. pdf(file=name,paper='a4',width=7.27,height=10.69) The mtext appears OK in R. But it looks like it is bolded in the PDF file. http://n4.nabble.com/file/n2016971/graph.png I am not sure if this is actually my monitor/computer's

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,

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.

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,

I have a simple graph (oode below) which looks fine on the screen but when I save it in png format the title (actually the last mtext line) is cut off. I am pretty sure that I am doing something very stupid but other than playing around with the png height and width commands which don't seem to help I have no idea of what to look for. Any suggestions or cures would be appreciated. Thanks

Dear R-helpers, I have trouble aligning an expression with a subscript, and text, in margin text: par(mar=c(6,6,1,1)) b <- barplot(1:3) mtext(c("A","B","C"), at=b, side=1, line=1, cex=1.3) mtext(expression(italic(C)[a]~(more~text)), at=0, line=1, side=1,cex=1.3) As explained in the help files and elsewhere, I understand that the expression is aligned by the

I want to right-justify a vector of numbers in the right margin of a low-level plot. For this I need to compute the line parameter to give to mtext. Is this the correct scalable calculation? par(mar=c(4,3,1,5)); plot(1:20) s <- 'abcde'; w=strwidth(s, units='inches')/par('cin')[1] mtext(s, side=4, las=1, at=5, adj=1, line=w-.5, cex=1) mtext(s, side=4, las=1, at=7,
