similar to: text() and vector arguments like adj

This was reported to me by a colleague in China, so I may not be reproducing exactly what they are seeing (which I suspect is rw2011), but this is what I see: > version _ platform i386--netbsdelf arch i386 os netbsdelf system i386, netbsdelf status major 2 minor 1.1 year 2005 month 06 day 20 language R > help(Hershey) : : If the 'vfont' argument

Dear R experts- I'm running R 1.2.3 (2001-04-26) on Linux. I need to get special symbols, such as a circle with a dot in it as used to indicate Solar units in astronomy, into my plot axis labels. How can I do this? Using the R documentation on the Hershey font sets, one can plot a Solar symbol within the world coordinates of a plot like this: >plot(1:10,1:10)

Hello Core Team, I sent this patch over a year ago. It looks like it was sent in response to another user's complaint which echoed some of my own observations about problems in the documentation for 'text'. Did anyone have a chance to look it over? I'd like to get it out of my queue. Thanks, Frederick On Tue, Apr 11, 2017 at 12:01:05PM -0700, frederik at ofb.net wrote: >

Hi! (I'd like to be able to access your bugzilla, BTW) The documentation for parameter "adj" of text() in R 3.3.3 is hard to understand (unless you know what it does already): "adj one or two values in [0, 1] which specify the x (and optionally y) adjustment of the labels. On most devices values outside that interval will also work." What is the meaning of the values? I

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.

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

Hi, I have a problem with aligning text which I'm adding to a plot using "mtext". I would like to specify the position of the right hand end of the text string, relative to the device (in the left-right direction). I've been looking at the use of the argument "adj". But this can't be used to specify the rightmost point of the text. Neither does it specify exactly

Not sure if I already reported this ... it seems that as of 0.50.a2, the adj graphics parameter is completely ignored. Try e.g. plot(1:10) title(main = "This is a title", adj = 0) title(main = "This is a title", adj = 1) No difference ... -k =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- r-devel mailing list -- Read

I have a simple barplot that looks fine in the R graphics device window. However when I export it to png I am losing the x-label. It must be an obvious problem but I cannot see it. Trying to resize the plot does not seem to help. Code is below. Any help gratefully received. ###### Start Code############ Groups <-c(21.8,45, 43, 17.2, 8.3, 18) names(Groups) <- c("Exeter",

Depending on the setting of par()$usr, the 'at' setting in mtext(.., adj=0, outer=T) may cause the text to appear in an anomalous position (e. g. in the first instance below, at the left of the plot region rather than at 'at=0' in the figure region), or the text may not appear at all. If one does not set the 'at' parameter the text appears (with 'adj=0') on the

I am trying to adjust the sigma symbol down in the y direction with the following command but R recycles the sigma and puts another at -0.1 in the x axis. Any suggestions would be appreciated. mtext(expression(sigma),1,outer=TRUE,adj=c(0.5,-0.1)) Regards Ross Darnell -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

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

Dear R-help team I have tried hard to turn my Y axis 90 degrees, so that it is written horizontally, and placing it above the Y axis, but I did not succeed. I have tried to adapt the following functions: - plot() - title() - mtext() And some more that did not prove to be useful (e.g. text() etc). The closest I got to my aim was with mtext(): mtext("Yield

Dear R Helpers: I am trying to annotate a plot. The following code snippet works, but it is kind of a kludge since it adds the partial derivative symbols after creating the plotmath frac(). Is there a more elegant way to write a partial derivative? dev.off() plot(NA, xlim=c(-3,3), ylim=c(0,1.6), xlab="", ylab="", tck=-0.015) text(1.6, 1, expression(paste("slope =

Hi, I would like to put the sample number beside each lable in a boxplot. How do I do this? Essentially, I need to count the sample size for each factor, see below: Thanks boxplot(DATA$K_Merge~factor(DATA$UnitName_1),axes=FALSE,col=colours) title(main=list("Tukey Boxplot by Geology:\n K(%)",cex=cexlb)) axis(1, 1:21, labels=FALSE, las=2) text(seq(1, 21, by=1), par("usr")[3],

Hi all, - how can I do a barplot with rotated axis labels? I've seen the example for just a plot in the FAQ, but I'll missing the coordinates to plot my text at the right position beneath the bars. Is there any (easy?) solution? - how can I set the y-axis in a barplot to logarithmic scale? Many thanks in advance! Best Regards Tom --

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

Hi R-List, I have a question regarding R-language formats, I think. I am producing a series of graphs (using plot, barplot, barchart, and bwplot, using either text or mtext to place values on the graphs) and tables for a Francophone country. In fact, I have already done so. However, while they are pleased with the results they've requested I convert all of my decimal points into the French
