similar to: Changing the position of the origin

Hi all, I am plotting data using the simple plot function: plot(data$x, data$y) which results in a standard plot with the axis origin in the lower left corner. ^ | | | | | O O | O O ----------------------------------> Since my data are screen coordinates I need mirrored axis so that the origin for both axis is in the upper left corner; like this: |--------------------------------> | O

Hi all, I have a matrix with 5 rows and 10 columns, which represent the grids on a rectangular map. I used the code below to plot, but it gives me the map with the 10 columns as y-axis, and the 5 rows as the x-axis, and the (0,0) point is at the usual bottom left hand corner. My map starts with the (0,0) at the top left hand corner. How can I rotate the map 90 degrees clockwise so the (0,0)

I'd like to make a plot with the axes drawn at the values of xlim and ylim. The default plot draws the axes slightly outside these values. I have been experimenting with the par(mgp) setting, but specifying par(mgp=c(2,0,-1)) gives me "invalid value specified for graphics parameter "mgp".". A more complicated mathod that almost seems to work is doing the plot with

Hi, Is it possible to draw barplot with x-axis being shown? I looked up the help file and I couldn't seem to find it. For example, I tried to do x <- 1:9 p <- log10(1 + 1/x) barplot(p, xlab = "Digit d", ylab = "Probability", ylim = c(0, 0.35), axes = F, main = "Benford's Law Probability") axis(1, 1:9) axis(2, seq(0, 0.35, by = 0.05),

Hi all, I was wondering if there's an equivalent to par(new=T) of the plot function in lattice. I'm plotting an xyplot, and I would like to highlight one point by plotting that one point again using a different symbol. For example, where 6 is highlighted: plot(1:10, xlim=c(0,10), ylim=c(0,10)) par(new=T) plot(6,6, xlim=c(0,10), ylim=c(0,10), pch=16) Is there a way to do this in lattice?

I would like to make what seems like a simple addition to a display constructed from a call to levelplot -- I want to add a text label (which will, in general, depend on the object being plotted, and so cannot be hardcoded) to the origin, which has special significance in my problem. The x and y axes always have range (0,1) in my plots, so by "origin" I always mean the lower left corner

Hi, I have a medium-sized (19MB) CSV file that I'd like to read into R. The read.csv() function seems to be a bit inefficient to deal with it, and I remember that using scan() with "what" options is better. However I'm unable to understand how to use it. The first few lines of the data look like:

I have re-labeled tick marks on the x axis. The problem is that by using axes=FALSE, the axes disappears and when they are called back using axis(side=1)..etc. the axis on sides 1 and 2 do not meet at the bottom left corner of the graph. I would also like to have the 3rd and 4th axes in there as well, all meeting in their respective corners. par(mfrow=c(1,2)) gut<-c("Full",

Hi all, I have a numeric vector with 1 decimal place, and I'd like to extract the last 3 characters, including the decimal point. The vector ranges from 0 to 20. x <- round(runif(100)*20, digits=1) Some of numbers have 3 characters, and some have 4. I've read up on the substr() function but that extracts characters based on exact positions. How can I extract just the last 3

How can I change the position of the ylab, after enlarging the margins with par(mar=...)? Here is the relevant code snippet ---- par(mar=c(5.1,5.1,4.1,2.1)) plot(c(1979,2003),c(40,50),ylim=c(1,73),lab=c(20,10,1),pch=21,col='blue',bg='blue',axes=FALSE,xlab="Years",ylab="Onset/Withdrawl Date",font.lab=2) box() axis(1,las=2)

Hello, my question is if I have two axes in a graphics as I can put him a different color al axis and to the number of the scale. ? Thanks. Ruben

[This is an edited version of an email that I sent to Paul Murrell. He was in favour of the idea (although he noted the obstacles that: it could make par() longer; somebody has to implement it) and suggested I submit this as a wishlist item.] Do you think it would be worth adding options to plot commands to reverse axes? Here is a simple example: > x <- 1:12 > plot(x) Whereas if I

hi all, I'm trying for quite some time to have an x- and y-axis, but no entire box. >plot(..,axes=F) >axis(1) >axis(2) Gives this, but their axes do not go to the origin. Quite a number of people find this gap between the two axes disturbing. Has anyone an idea how to let these axes go to the origin? thank you in advance [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I would like to plot time against rainfall data (data is at the end) using xyplot. The basic code looks like this: xyplot(rainfall~time, type="a") When I do this, the graph looks ok except that the x-axis has too many values. I would just like to display the years and not the months on the x-axis. I've been fiddling around with 'scales', and read previous posts about

Hi how do I make my axes cross at the origin? x <- seq(from=-pi,to=pi,len=30) plot(x,sin(x)) makes the axes cross at about (-pi,-1). How do I get my x and y axes to cross in the centre of the graph, with the sine curve passing through the intersection? I couldn't find anything in ?par or ?axis; searching R-FAQ for "axis" didn't help. -- Robin Hankin Uncertainty

Hi fellow R users, I have a dataset that looks something like this. species class abundance K 1 592 K 2 288 G 1 254 G 2 239 C 2 173 D 2 123 E 3 89 F 2 87 B 2 86 H 2 82 I 1 79 J 2 76 B 1 73 D 3 72 A 2 62 L 2 58 I want to plot a stacked barchart. species is the x-axis, abundance is y-axis, and class will appear as the stacks in different colours. I need the species to be displayed in descending

Hello all, I've tried to reproduce the contour plot that appears in the book of Venables and Ripley, at page 255. Is a F-statistic surface and a confidence region for the regression parameters of a non-linear model. It uses the stormer data that are in the MASS package. I haven't been able to reproduce the plot either in R ( version 1.5 ) and S. It makes the axes and it puts the

Hi, I have 2 dataframes of unequal length, and I would like to match a factor to them so that both dataframes will have the same number of rows. example: # create the 2 dataframes with unequal length data1 <- data.frame(letters, 1:26)[-c(5,10,19:21),] data2 <- data.frame(letters, 1:26)[-c(6,9,15:18),] data2a <- match(data1[,1], data2[,1]) data2b <- data2[data2a,] When I match
