similar to: How to embed italic Greek letters in a eps file?

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

hello list, Can someone help me figure out why the following code doesn't work? I'm trying to but both Greek letters and subscripts into a tcltk menu. The code creates all the mu's, and the 1 and 2 subscripts, but it won't create the 0. Is there a certain set of characters that R won't recognize the unicode for? Or am I input the \u2080 incorrectly? library(tcltk) m

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 =

Hi, Could someone please let me know how to plot greek letters in italic. text(0,14,expression(italic(rho)[italic(f)])) only plots the f in italic and text(37,40,expression(italic(rho))) doesn't plot rho in italic. I have checked demo(plotmath), ?plotmath, FAQ, and the archives 2004-2006 without finding the answer. I'm using R 2.1.1. and Windows XP. Thanks! Tord -- Tord Sn?ll

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

Hello all, I can't seem to figure how to use a greek character in expression() in plot() labels without adding a space. So for example below when plotting this out x<-1:10 plot(x,x^2, xlab=expression(Chlorophyll~italic(a)~mu~g~cm^-2)) the axis label read as μ g cm^-2 because I have space there with a tilda. But if I remove the tilda then my units are mug cm^-2. Can anyone recommend a

Hi, I want to write in x axis label "fitted value of lambda" (lambda in greek letter). xlab=expression(lambda) gives the "lambda", I tryed things like xlab=paste ("fitted value of ", expression(lambda)) but I didn't get the greek letter.

Hi all, I want to plot a series "x" and I want to put on title "Time evolution with alpha=0.2", e.g., plot(x, main="Time evotion with alpha=0.2",col="orange") Is there any posibility to put the greek letter and avoid written the word? Many thanks in advance. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, I appreciate suggestions for following problem. I wrote to RStudio: plot(c(1,20),c(1,20), xlab = expression(paste(alfa))) or the same happen when I wrote: plot(c(1,20),c(1,20), xlab = expression(alfa)) what happen is, that description under x label is exactly "alpha", not greek letter alfa (?). Please where should I search problem, or what information to sent to list for

I have an instance where I need to include Greek letters on a plot title that is multiple lines. ? I've searched the forums for an approach to do this, but most of the previous posts and replies seem to just address instances of single line examples and problems:, e.g. ? https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/1999-October/005096.html ? I tried implementing those suggestions, e.g.

Dear RGL experts, I haven't been able to add greek letters to my rgl plot3d. I have tried "expression" with no success. Here is the interested bit: > library(rgl) > cb <- cube3d() > plot3d(cb,xlab=expression(alpha),ylab="",zlab="",box=FALSE,alpha=0.5) The expression(alpha) appears as "alpha", rather than as a greek symbol. I suspect greek

Dear All, In the title of a plot, I would like to mix greek letters with numbers, where the numbers are obtained from a particular function to a vector (e.g., max(x)); in each call, the value of this vector can change. Without greek symbols I use something like: title(sub=paste("x1=", deparse(x[1]),"beta = ",deparse(max(x)), "rho = ", deparse(min(x)))) but I'd

Dear r-help list, I am trying to combine a greek letter lambda with the contents of a variable v in the title of a plot. However, it seems that having v inside the expression() function causes it not to be evaluated, on the other hand having expression(lambda) inside something else like paste causes it to be evaluated to a string. Here is an example of what I want to do:

Hi, all. I know that this is probably something that others have asked, but I can't find a reference in either the FAQ or the help pages. I'm trying to find a way to put Greek letters as a label of the plot *with* a value from the data. Previously I've used pasted and the word "rho". * paste("rho=", cor2[i]) will produce a label of

Hello, I want to have a title that will look something like: "Results for \theta=2.1", given that I have a variable theta=2.1, and \theta should show on the screen like the greek letter. I've tried a lot of things: theta <- 2.1 plot(1:10, main=expression(paste("Results for", theta, "=", eval(theta)))) or using bquote plot(1:10, main=paste("Results for

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

Dear R user community I wanted to use "bgroup" for plotting a math formula with a big "{" on the left, and nothing on the right. i used text( 10, 10, pos=4, cex=1.8, expression(F(x) == bgroup("{", x, "")), ...) on a 40 x 20 plot. surprisingly, bgroup sets "Phi(xi) = { xi" i.e. replaces alphabetic characters with greek letters in the entire
