similar to: controlling location of labels in axis()

Hello A very short question: Using multiple plots with par(mfrow=c(3,3)), how can I get R to indicate one common y- and x-axis label? I tried to use text() in par, but this is then overwritten when I plot the graphs. -- Sebastian Leuzinger Institute of Botany, University of Basel Schönbeinstr. 6 CH-4056 Basel Ph. 0041 (0) 61 267 3511 fax 0041 (0) 61 2673504 email: Sebastian.Leuzinger@unibas.ch

Hello I need to plot 3 graphs in a single column; the top two plots have the same title, and I would like it to be written only once, centered horizontally and spanning the two plots. Something like t +------------+ | | i | | | | t +------------+ l +------------+ | | e | | | | 1 +------------+ t

Dear useRs, I'm having a slight problem with plotting on 2 axes. While the following code works alright on screen, the saved output does not turn out as desired i.e. the secondary y-axis does not display fully. Just run the code and look at image output. Suggestions please... thanks, Muhammad --- rm(list=ls()) x <- 1:100 y <- 200:300 par(mar=c(5,5,5,7)+0.1) # inner margin

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

It seems that there is a problem in displaying subtitle in general, independently from multi-plot display. when I do plot (c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7), type = "l") title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",cex.main=2, cex.sub = 2) subtitle doesn't get displayed > --- On Sat, 11/21/09, David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > wrote: >

Dear helpers, I'm using a R script on several different datasets, which makes that axis scales may vary quite a lot from dataset to dataset. So what I'm looking for now, is how to automagically find out how to position the legend (horizontal) in the space below the x-axis title, and how to make sure that the legend is within the limits of the lower inner or outer margin? I'm aware of

Dear R-helpers, Please see the attached plot. The problem is that I have too much space between the x-axis label (which is mtext in an outer margin) and the plots. My par settings for this plot are: >par(mfrow=c(1,3),oma=c(2,2,2,2),mar=c(5.1,4.1,4.1,2.1),pty="s") >#here is the code that produces the three plots, which I have deleted for simplicity >mtext("Log Wetland

The code I'm using is shown below. I would like to have a larger median at the top of the plot so that I can show the entirity of "title_text". Several times I tried messing with "par(mar", but that seemed to make matters worse. By any chance can anyone provide any insight as to the best way to increase the top/upper/northern margin, so the entirity of the title is

Dear all, Though labeling the x and y axis in the plot command seems to be straight forward, I can not get it to work if I do the following: ## Creating example data edata <- c(1,2,1,2) edata <- matrix(edata, 2, 2, byrow = T) colnames(edata) <- c("a", "b") edata <- data.frame(edata) ## plot data par(mfrow<- c(1,2)) plot(edata$a, edata$b, xlab =

I'm trying to use mtext to create a main title over multiple plots. Below is a simple self-contained example and my sessionInfo (I should note I've also tried this with R-2.8.1 with the same results). When I execute the code chunk below, I get the plots, but no title. I've tried this using the screen driver, pdf, and postscript. I've used different sizes of paper. I suspect I am

I've tried several different ways to accomplish this, but as yet to no avail. My y-axis for a plot has a rather long label, and thus I have been using "/n" to break it into two lines. However, to make it technically correct for publication, I also need to use superscript in the label. For example: par(oma=c(0,0,2,0),mar=c(5,6,0.25,2),lheight=1) plot(1:10,

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

Dear all, I have a 3x2 plot and in addition to the title of the individual plots I would like to have an overall title for each row. I managed to get an overall title for the whole plot matrix with mtext: par(mfrow=(c(3,2)), mar=c(6.4,4.5,4.2, 1.8), oma=c(0,0,3,0)) for (i in 1:6) barplot(sample(1:10,5), main=paste("Plot #",i)) mtext("Overall Title Row 1", outer=TRUE) but I

Hi there, I'm trying to get some text in the outer margins of my plots and am having trouble - the margin text is overlapping my plots, even though the outer margin I'm trying to put it in is very big. I've simplified my problem down to this: ------------------------- X11(width=7.5,height=10) par(mfrow=c(6,1),oma=c(20,0,20,0), mar=c(0,3.1,1,2.1)) for (i in 1:6) {

Dear R-users: I asked a question on how I can have a universal legend in a plot and received the following result. I tried using "layout" but I can't seem to work on the "empty" plot (where I have to have the legend). I tried "oma" but I couldn't improve the quality of the plot, and that I didn't know how to specify all the line types using the

Hey Felix, So basically what you want is a figure containing a block of four plots, with a main title for the figure? If that's the case then something like this should work: # BEGIN CODE # par(oma=c(0,0,1,0), mfrow=c(2,2)) for(i in 1:4){ plot(NA,xlim=range(0,10),ylim=range(-5,5)) title(paste("Plot ",i,sep="")) } par(mfrow=c(1,1), oma=c(0,0,1,0)) mtext("Main

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: I am drawing a graph with the following code: Tau<-seq(0.05,0.95,0.05); Pi <- seq(0.19,0.01,-0.01); par(cex.axis=0.8,ps=9,mar=c(1.5,1,0.5,1), oma=c(1,1,0.2,1) ,tck=-0.01); plot(Tau,Pi, type='l', xlab="Tau",ylab="Pi",col=4); I want to make the graph take as little space as possible. Here I run into two problems. One is that the labels are gone, the

Hi, I'm plotting 5 autocorrelation plots on one page. Using par(mfrow=c(3,2)) everything comes out fine. However, for each plot, it prints a title on top of each plot that says Series followed by the variable name used in the plot. I want to suppress those titles, but I also want a general figure title on the bottom of the page. I've looked at the Murrell book as well as the acf
