similar to: lines at margin?

Dear Rs I have a 3x3 multiple plot. I would like to have a overall legend in the outer right margin. From the help archive, I found that it can be done by setting par(xpd=NA). However, I couldn't find the correct values for x and y co-ordinates for the legend. Please find the code snippet below: par(mfrow=c(3,3), mar=c(4,4,0.9,0.5), oma=c(1,2,2,4),cex.main=1.1)

Dear List, I am trying to plot a color.legend() in the right outer margin of my device region. I have read multiple threads on the subject and still can't get it right. I have stolen an example from one of the threads to demonstrate my problem. I have extended the outer margin using par(oma()), and have used par(xpd=NA) to tell it to plot in the device region. I can get the legend to plot

How do I draw a rectangle across multiple plots on a device? E.g., def.par <- par(no.readonly = TRUE) par(mfrow = c(3, 1)) plot(1:10, rnorm(10), ylim = c(-4,4), type = "l") plot(1:10, rnorm(10), ylim = c(-4,4), type = "l") plot(1:10, rnorm(10), ylim = c(-4,4), type = "l") rect(2, -4, 3, 4) par(def.par) I want the rectangle to extend across the whole device. How

Simple question how can you position text in the top left hand corner of a plot? I am plotting multiple plots using par(mfrow=c(2,3)) and all I want to do is label these plots a), b), c) etc. I have been fiddling around with both text and mtext but without much luck. text is fine but each plot has a different scale on the axis and so this makes it problematic. What is the best way to do this?

Hi all, Quick question: What function can I use to draw a line in the margin of a plot? segments() and lines() both stop at the margin. In case the answer depends on exactly what I'm trying to do, see below. I'm using R v. 2.8.1 on Windows XP. Cheers, Alan I'm trying to make a horizontal barplot with a column of numbers on the right side. I'd like to put a line between the

I am creating a CDF plot function more user-friendly than any default r function. Depending upon the bimodality of the data (it is often bimodal), or any other strange data trends, the points can end up gathering in just about any corner of the plot. So, when I add a legend, whether I choose to add it in the bottom right, top left, or wherever, it will sometimes end up putting the legend right

Dear all R gurus, I have following syntax: y = c(1:10) chippy <- function(x) { y[5] = x sin(cos(t(y)%*%y)*exp(-t(y)%*%y/2)) } curve(chippy, 1, 20, n=200) But I am getting error while executing : Error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) : 'x' and 'y' lengths differ In addition: Warning message: number of items to

hi, I need to draw a line joining graphs,but abline stops within a graph.What do i do to cover portions between two graphs -- Rajesh.J [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-list members, I am trying to put a legend just outside the plotting area of a graph. 1. Is there some way to plot symbols on the figure margin, in the same way as function "mtext" can write on the margin? 2. Is there some way to use the "legend" function (or some equivalent function) to plot a legend on the figure margin? 3. Any other way to plot either symbols or a

In version 0.63.0 for Win95, I can use text() to write into the left margin (to the left of the axis) as follows: > plot(0:10,0:10,pch="+") > text(c(1,0.5,0,-0.5,-1),1,"O") I see 5 "O" symbols at the expected position, two of which are left of the left axis. However, in version 0.64.0 for Solaris 2.5.1 on a Sparc/Ultra2, I only see three "O"

Hi, I try to put an arrow to a filled.contour plot. I make this: filled.contour(volcano, color = terrain.colors,key.axes=F) arrows(0.95,0,0.95,1,lwd=2) This work, but the problem is that I find the coordinates at random try, for other graphic with other scale is other fight with coordinates. Anybody know a more easy or more generalized way to make this? Somethink like this

Hello everybody, often I plot boxplots with different number of boxes (up to 200 boxes). I'd like to give every box a readable label on the x-axis. Therefore, I decrease the fontsize of the names and plot them vertical. But if you zoom into the plot (pdf) you will find an offset between the tickmark and the label - the label is shifted to the right. If you vary the box.count in the

Dear R users, I am new to R and I couldn't figure out how to solve the following problem: I am trying to put a legend below two plots using the code below. The legend appears in the second plot, but I want the legend to appear below the two plots in the center of the total chart. At the moment the graphic looks like this: http://i48.tinypic.com/2h2fvhf.jpg [code] layout(matrix(1:2, nrow=1))

Hi guys, I use R 2.6.2 and Windows XP. I’ve got the following question: I wrote a lot of text into the margin of a plot. When I use the “jpeg”-function, only a little part of the margin text is displayed in the final jpeg? Any ideas to change it? Source-Code: datenbankdaten<-data.frame(LETTERS[1:20],

Hi, I have been trying many of the suggested options to place a legend outside plotting area, including something like this: par(xpd=T, oma=par()$oma+c(4.5,0,1.5,0),mar=par()$mar+c(1,0,1,0) But the aspect of the four plots gets compromised when I change the margin settings. I cannot use mtext because I need to use colors for the text. I tried layout, but wouldn't let me include

Hello! I have created a plot and would like to put a legend in the top left corner (above and left of plotting region), but non of the functions can plot there (I tried 'legend', 'text', 'points', 'lines', 'mtext', 'axes',...). I would be very grateful if someone could help me put something in that corrner, with any fuction. Thanks, Ales Ziberna

Dear Listmembers, I do have a multiplot with 1 row and 4 columns (4 scatter plots with same x- and y-axe plotted in one row). I would like to draw a horizontal line across the whole multiplot at a certain y-value. Unfortunately the normal abline command stops between the plot. I hope my problem is clear and there is somebody who can help me Thanks in advance Thomas H.

R 2.14.1 OS X Colleagues, I am making a graphic with two y-axes. I create the label for the right-side axis with: mtext(side=4, line=1, "Some text") The label is rotated 90° counterclockwise. I would prefer that it be rotated 90° clockwise. However, srt is not supported for mtext and las does not offer this option. Is there some other means to rotate the text string? Thanks in

Is there a simple way to put a legend outside the plot area for a simple plot? I found... (at http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/) # Expand right side of clipping rect to make room for the legend *par(xpd=T, mar=par()$mar+c(0,0,0,4))* # Graph autos (transposing the matrix) using heat colors, # put 10% of the space between each bar, and make labels # smaller with horizontal y-axis labels

Hi, In the getGraphicsEvent function the (x,y) co-ordinates returned from the mouse move are in relation to where the mouse is located within the device window (i.e. the lower left corner of the window is '(0,0)', the upper right is '(1,1)'). Is there a way of returning the (x,y) co-ordinates of data points plotted where instead of x and y being the actual data points they are
