Hello,

I have the following problem: I created an ecdf and a barplot. Unfortunatly,
the bars are not where I would like them to be (please see picture below).

http://www.nabble.com/file/p12877530/problem.gif ...

Can anyone tell me how I can adjust the bars to the left?

Hi Tobias (and anyone else who is interested),
This is a rather intriguing request. If there are people out there who would like to place the bars in a barplot at arbitrary positions, I could rather easily modify "barp" in the plotrix package to do this. (I've already tried it with the "xpos" argument as a test, and it produces nice overlapped bars, if you like that sort of thing.) However, as a one-off, I would probably not include it in plotrix. I attach the perhaps buggy altered code for Tobias if it helps. Use it instead of barplot like this:

library(plotrix)
# add your path to the barp.R file to the following
source("barp.R")
barp(height,width=0.2,col="gray",xlim=c(-1.2,4.2),xpos=0:2)

If I get a few requests, I can thrash the code a bit and it will turn up in the next version of plotrix.
