similar to: odot symbol as a subscript in axes labels

Is there a way to label axes with LaTeX commands like \frac{M}{M_{\odot}} or v_{\rm Cluster} (10^3 km s^{-1}) and have them come out looking right? Please CC eford at princeton.edu. Thanks, -- Eric Ford eford at princeton.edu http://www.princeton.edu/~eford/ eford at mad.scientist.edu

How are sub/superscripts designated for text in axis labels? As in this y-axis label: scale_y_continuous("Respiration, pmol O2 h-1") where the "2" needs to be subscripted and the "-1" needs to be superscripted. Thanks.

Hello, I am plotting a 3D function using persp and I would like to use greek symbols in the axes labels. I have found examples like this one on the web: plot(0,0,xlab=expression(kappa[lambda]),ylab=substitute(paste(phi,"=",true,sigma),list(true=5))) this works well with plot but not with persp: with the command persp(M,theta = -20,phi =

Hello, Does anybody know if it is possible to reduce the spaces between axes labels and axes lables in boxplots? I am trying to fit several plots onto one page ( layout() ) and need to save as much space as possible. I have reduced margins (par(mar)),adjusted font size (cex) and tck, is there anything else I can do? Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I would like to have the labels parallel to the axes in my wireframe (lattice) plot. Sure you can use ...xlab=list(label="x-axis",rot=30) and for the z-axis this is easy (as rot=90), but for the x- and y- axis the angle is not (always) quite clear (to me). Is there an option that just rotates all three labels to be parallel to the corresponding axes? Thanks marius

Hello I'm making a levelplot with frequencies in a 2*2 table with ordered factors. I get the plot I want, but axes draw the levels of the factor (1,2,3,4..) instead of the desired labels. Is there a way to alter this axes labels in lattice graphics? Thanks for the reply Oscar -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

Hello R users, I am new to R, so this may be a very stupid question. I need to subscript the dotted circle (Hershey escape sequence "\\SO") to a string. I tried using text(.5,.5,substitute( R[disk] == 5 R["\\SO"] ) ) but it turns out to be a syntax error. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks Gaetano

http://www.nabble.com/file/p14664173/at-modality.png I created the above image with R and I have one problem left: Some of the labels of the axes do not show up, probably because there's not enough space. I use the following code to create the plot: modality <- read.table("results.table", header=TRUE, sep=",") color <-

Heja, It took me a while to find a way of implementing normal text as subscripted text in a expression followed by another expression and more subscripted text :O) It looks now as this: ylab=expression(Delta^"+"~""[paste("my subscripted text")]~">"~Delta^"+"~""[paste("my subscripted text")]) I use several par commands

I using lattice to make some plots and I want to make the y-axis on some of these plots use a log scale. In the following plot: x <- 1:10 y <- 2^x xyplot(log10(y) ~ x) I get tick marks on the y-axis at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0. I would rather have just 3 tick marks at 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 but labeled 10, 100, and 1000. I know this can be done using the "at" and

Hi all, How can the label of the x-axes in the plot() of a stl.object be adapted? e.g., When plotting: plot(stl(nottem, "per")) In the labels of the x-axes is “time”. How can this be changed to e.g., “Time (dekade) “? It does not work with xlab or others anymore… Thanks, Jan _______________________________________________________________________ Ir.

Well, I agree that plots with multiple y-axes can be very confusing but .... i am not sure that always they are also misleading .... One time i was asked to make a 2 y-axes plot, one y axes was for elevation (heights in meters) and one for rugosity (values between 1 and 2 - unitless). The idea was to visualize that for a more complex profile the rugosity is higher than for a flatter terrain. A

Problem: How can I format tickmark labels of log scaled axes of lattice graphics in the usual `xxx'-Format (and not in the scientific format). Example: (according to the help-page of xyplot): In the first plot I get the xxx-Format, in the second plot I get the scientific format (10^xxx): data(sunspot) plot( 1:37, sunspot, log='y',type='l') xyplot( sunspot ~ 1:37,

Sorry, I am sure, this must be documented somewhere (but there are that many docs and tutorials to scan for topics..., actually a great thing... but if you are in a hurry..): I want to save a plot as .ps (or .eps): > postscript("plot1.eps", horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE,height=8,width=8,pointsize=10) > plot(hpfit$fit,rstudent(hpfit),xlab="Fitted

Hi, I have a question about exporting interactive 3D plots. I use the following code to plot a contour of a trivariate normal distribution: library(mvtnorm) library(rgl) library(misc3d) n=25 x=seq(-3,3,length=n) X=cbind(rep(x,each=n**2),rep(rep(x,each=n),n),rep(x,n**2)) p=array(dmvnorm(X,sigma=diag(3)*0.5+0.5),c(n,n,n)) contour3d(p,x,x,x,level=mean(p)) lim=c(-3,3)

After a long and winding road (sorry but I'm a novice) I get to a final result which is quite close to what I need; nevertheless I would like to tweak a little further the xyplot so that I can get ***for each single panel defined by variable z*** a finer control over: -the x and y the limits: I would like to be the same for both axes; -the number of thick marks: again I would like to be same

I would like to have arrow heads at the end of my axes, since I am plotting variable where the absolute amount is irrelevant, there is not supposed to be numbers on the axes. An imperfect example: plot(rnorm(10),bty='l',xaxt='n',yaxt='n',ylab='',xlab='',type='l') abline(h=0) Like this but without, the xaxis and with arrrowheads More like this in

Dear R Wizards: Running R 1.9.1. on amd64. Promise<- c(0,20,40); Expect<- c(0, 20, 0.2*20+.8*40 ); # this omits printing numbers on the axes labels. pdf(file = "bug.pdf" ); plot(Promise, Expect, type="b", ylim=c(0,60)); dev.off(); # this works postscript(file = "bug.eps" ); plot(Promise, Expect, type="b", ylim=c(0,60)); dev.off(); apologies if

Dear all, Using the code I got from the link ( http://www.phaget4.org/R/image_matrix.html), I obtained a nice plot that suits me. However, adding axes labels proved difficult for me . I have succeeded in adding a few things to the plot function so as to get what a better plot. Other things work but ylab="days" did not reflect. It will be great if somebody can advice on how to add axes

Dear R users, I have a desktop computer and a laptop, both of them with Ubuntu Lucid. The former has R2.10 installed from Ubuntu repositories (this is the most recent version in the repositories), while the latter has R2.13 from the CRAN repositories. I noticed that postscript files generated with R2.10 are "better" than files generated with the latest release of R, in particular for
