similar to: lattice: Set x-axis in italics only

Dear R-helpers, > label2 <- expression(paste(italic(attraction function:), 'slope')) Error: unexpected 'function' in "label2 <- expression(paste(italic(attraction function" How do I tell R that in this case I don't want 'function' to be treated as a reserved word but as a string in italics? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy

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]]

R 1.3.0, windows I've checked archives, and examples in text, mtext, and title. I am trying to include italicized text in the main title of a figure: ...., main = "[italics here] species name [italics stop] more plain text" TIA, Henry ***************************** Martin Henry H.

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

Hi, As part of the legend to a plot, I need to have the "n" in italics because it is a requirement of the journal I aim to publish in: "This study, n = 3293" Presently I have: legend(20, 105, "This study, n = 3293", pch=1, col=rgb(0,0,0,0.5), pt.cex=0.3, cex=0.8, bty="n") I suppose I could leave a blank in place of the "n",

I wish place the following axis label in such a manner that some of the text is plain and the scientific name is in italics (i.e. a mixture of two font types) Using plot: mtext("Total Landings of Pecten maximus (tonnes)",font,=3, side=2, line=3) makes everything italic, but how do I apply the font change to only "Pecten maximus"?

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

What's the difference between: <em>emphasis</em> and <i>italicized</i> and <strong>strong</strong> and <b>bold</b> It seems to subtle for my browsers. The only "difference" I've been able to find is that according to the O'Reilly book <strong> and <emphasis> are semantic tags, while <b> and <i>

Hi, I need to have both italics and standard font on the y axis. This is my script: plot(x,y,pch=16,xlab="metric",ylab="species CPUE") I want species in italics and CPUE in standard text. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Different-fonts-on-the-same-axis-tp26482460p26482460.html Sent from the R help mailing list

Hi All, So I just joined the list - first off, Markdown is a great format and we're using it in our online community project disCourse: http://discourse.ics.hawaii.edu We're using markdown for our wiki pages, stories, message postings, pretty much everywhere. One markdown policy that doesn't seem to fit intuitively for our users is the fact that embedded underscores leads to

Hello useRs, I'm trying to put italics and regular font into a title and am having some trouble. The title I would like is " /Q. marilandica/ Volume ". If I use main=bquote(italic( "Q. marilandica ", " volume")) I get just " Q. marilandica " in italics in the title. If i use main=bquote(italic( "Q. marilandica ,) volume") I get "

Hi I am using mathematical anotation to make the labels in a barplot in italics. as an example (adapted from http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/129808.html): tt <- c("italic(First~~set)", "italic(Second~~set)", "italic(third~~set") barplot(1:3, names.arg=parse(text=tt)) But I would like to have it with "set" in a second column, like tt

Hi all, can anyone suggest a reason as mto why my xlab is plotting this text at oposite ends of axis. I would like to represent my lable like this: Moran's I ...but with the I in italics. For some reason they seperate and position at oposite ends of the axis?? Thank you library(lattice) dat <- data.frame(x = rnorm(10),y = rnorm(10)) xyplot(y ~ x, dat,xlab=expression("Moran's

Hi, I'm trying to get the correct font used when generating italic text in an R grahic. I have a set of labels that print correctly except it seems the italic text is justr a slanted version of the TeX computer modern normal font... I'm using R v1.8.1 on Windows XP, and I get the same result if I build the pdf using Adobe Acrobat or using MikTeX The labels:

Hello, I have a y-axis label that reads: "S. schenckii yeast cells". The part that reads "S. schenckii" needs to be in italic style, the rest of the text is normal style. How can I specify the different font styles for each part of the y-axis label? Thank you, Judith

Dear expeRts, How can I vertically adjust an axis tick label so that it is nicely aligned with the other labels? library(lattice) xyplot(0~0, xlim=c(0,3), scales=list(x=list(at=c(1,1.1), labels=c(expression(hat(theta)[italic(n)]),expression(theta))))) ## aim: move the leftmost expression up so that theta is nicely aligned with the second theta. Cheers, Marius

Dear Group: I want to use lattice with a formula such as y ~ x | v to plot a data frame in which v varies to indicate which "x" is really being plotted. I know how to make the x-axis scales vary with the panel but is it possible to let the x-axis label vary, i.e., to let the user specify a vector of x-axis labels? Thanks Frank -- Frank E Harrell Jr Professor and Chair

Dear R users, Below are some R commands which produce a y-axis label that is not wholly in the viewing area of the eps file (or the x11 window). I have tried experimenting with the postscript bounding box, and using such R commands as over(phantom(0),...) but I make the whole y-label visible. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I may fix this. (Please CC mailing list email to p.stansell
