Dear r-helpers, Does anyone have a straightforward example of putting together three unrelated (expect for a common y-axis) xyplot() figures in what would be in base graphics a par(mfrow = c(1, 3)) arrangement? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400 Charlottesville, VA 22904-4400 Parcels: Room 102

Colleagues, Using R 2.10.1 in OS X (Snow Leopard), I created JPEG documents that were intended to include italicized text. In the JPEG versions, the italics appear in bold-face. The identical code (except for the call to the device) yields italics in PDF. A minimal example is: PDF version: > pdf("plot.pdf") > plot(1,1) > mtext(bquote(italic(P) < .(0.005))) >

Full_Name: Yan Wong Version: 2.8.1 OS: Mac OS X 10.4 Submission from: (NULL) (78.149.167.246) When printing a plot to and svg file, text intended to be in italics is rendered in bold (svg file viewed using both Safari 3.2.1 and Firefox 2.0.0.9. For example, try viewing the test.svg file generated by svg("test.svg", width=4,4,8) plot.new();

Part of my script reads: speciesName <- names(data)[i] plot(year,depth, xlab="Year", ylab="Depth(m)",main=expression(italic(paste(speciesName))) ) Unfortunately, this just plots *speciesName *on my graph, not the name of the species in italics. Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thank you Jacob [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear list, I making some box-and-whisker plots in R with vertebrate data. The x axis are species names that must be in italics. I tried with the "axis" function but no luck, and it seems that affects both axes. Any tip? Thanks a lot in Advance. Alej

R 1.3.0, windows I've checked archives, and examples in text, mtext, and title.

Hi, I am drawing several plots and want to have italics in a main title; this is easy with expression(). However, I want also to add a value to it, say n_i, that depends on an ith plot. For this I am using paste(). An example: n_i = 10, 20, 30; I want to draw a plot for each i with the title: "Relative efficiency for sample size n = n_i", where n should be in italics, and of course n_i

df1 <- data.frame(a = LETTERS[1:2], b = LETTERS[3:4], c = 1:2) I am looking for an idiom that swaps the elements of df$a and df$b when (e.g.) df$c == 2, resulting in df2 <- data.frame(a = LETTERS[c(1, 4)], b = LETTERS[c(3, 2)], c = 1:2) _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400 Charlottesville, VA

How does one define PDFs as yet undefined in R, such as the ex- gaussian, the sum of two RVs, one exponential, one Gaussian? The PDF would then be the convolution of an exponential PDF, dexp(), and a normal, dnorm(). Kindly cc me in your reply to r-help.

Dear r-helpers, After updating to R version 2.2.1, 2005-12-20, powerpc-apple- darwin7.9.0 (from binary), JGR wouldn't launch. I then deleted everything I could find related to JGR, and reinstalled it from the latest binary. Both R and JGR are installed in /Applications/ \~LocalApps/mathStat/.

Dear R-helpers, I would like the bands in an xYplot() to be gray without dark edges. I've tried playing around with col.bands, but that seems not to affect the edges, although changin col.fill does change the fill as I would expect. I would appreciate pointers. _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box
