similar to: Mixed Latin, Greek and subscript characters in axis label

Request For Translators<g> So what I've gathered from Wikipedia is that the Greek language does not use semicolons as a separator for enumerations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicolon#Greek_and_Church_Slavonic | In Greek and Church Slavonic, a semicolon indicates a question, | similar to a Latin question mark.[2] To indicate a long pause or | separate sections, each with commas

Hi, I'm fairly new to R, so hopefully this is an easy question... On a plot, I would like to have the y label read: "Response(phi)" with phi = the greek character. From old posts I've found this: title(ylab=expression(paste("Response (", phi, ")"))) This displays nicely, but in the default font. I would like to use font=6 (which is the font of the other

Dear R-help, I am trying to express myself as best as I can here. If you also use Latex to edit math reports or other languages with similar editing method, you'll see what I'm talking about. My sincere appologies if my question is not clear enough to some extend, as also I'm not able to provide my code here because I don`t know which one I can use... When editing the title in R

Hi All, I am having trouble getting a complex subscript to work. I'm sure it's possible. Here is what I have: ylab=expression(paste("log ",L[peak]," [erg ",s^{-1},"]")), I would like to have the subscript read "peak,gamma" where the gamma would be the greek symbol. I do want the comma to show as well. Thanks, EM

The problem is ... strange. When I'm using programs such as "Tottal commander", "Free commander", installing "hidden and dangerous deluxe" (free), letters in dialogs becomes Greek instead of Latin (you know those strange symbols from math formulas). So I don't understand what is written. How can I solve this?

Hello there, Is there any way to italicize Greek symbols such as mu in axis? From the help files of mathematical anotations: "Note that bold, italic and bolditalic do not apply to symbols, and hence not to the Greek symbols such as mu which are displayed in the symbol font. They also do not apply to numeric constants.", it seems that it cannot be done. Thanks, Bingzhang Chen

For an axis label I want to include the Greek letter mu within the string. I've not found the proper way of including that expression within the string. What I want is "Conductivity (uS/cm)" with the 'u' replaced by mu. When I try "Conductivity (" expression(paste(mu)) "S/cm)" I get an error. If I don't separate Conductivity and S/cm with

Following on from my previous mail! plot(1:10,1:10) mtext("title", side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) This works as expected and puts the font in italics. tag <- "A)" suffix <- "genea::" plot(1:10,1:10) mtext(bquote(.(tag) ~ Delta * .(suffix)), side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) Here, the font isn't in italics, it's normal. I presume this is some

Dear useRs, I am trying to read a tab-delimited Unicode text file containing both latin and cyrillic characters and failing miserably. The file looks like this (I hope it comes across right): A B C 3 foo ??? 5 bar ??? read.table("foo.txt",sep="\t",header=TRUE) I am guessing that I can use the fileEncoding argument to read.table() to read this, but I can find no list of

Hello, In the past I have used "expression" to include greek letters in axis labels, but this time I need to include the greek letter as part of a legend. Basically, I need to create the following vector to rename the levels of a factor: c("Interferon-gamma", "IL-10", "IL-5"), where "gamma" obviously needs to be printed as the greek letter

Hi, I would like to add a two-lines label consisting of: "Delta word1\n word2" (with Delta being the actual greek letter). However, when I try "expression(paste(Delta,"word1\nword2"))", I obtain the following display: "word1\n Delta word2". Do you have any idea on how to obtain the desired display?

Hi I am running an R script that creates 100s of graphs, and I need to use the greek CAPITAL letter delta in the mtext() function.

Dear list, I would like to plot points with two types of labels, one at the data point (the name of the point) and another offset a bit with another factor which is either of the two greek characters alpha or beta. I have tried to get the routine to plot a greek character with expression() or with substitute() and have not yet had any success. The following only plots the word in english in

Hello R masters, I have sent this same message to other lists and none so far could give some light. I was trying to use odfWeave to generate a report from R and Im getting an error that I think is related to latin characters. I looked around and did find some stuff related to this problem about Sweave http://labmoluscos.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/sweave-latex-character-encoding/ but did not find a

I'm trying to annotate some graphics using plotmath and finding out that the code I'm using isn't bolding the greek letters - it bolds the rest (once I adjusted the numerics to characters), it's just failing on the greek characters. Any suggestions welcomed. Jim Price. Cardiome Pharma Corp. Test code: plot(1:5, type = 'n') # The not bold version text(2, 2:4, cex =

I''ve successfully installed ferret and acts_as_ferret and have no problem with utf-8 for accented characters. It returns correct results fot e.g. fran?ais. My problem is with non latin characters (Persian indeed). I have tested different locales with no success both on Debian and Mac. Any idea?
