I think he wants the axes crossing at 0,0 not on the outer edges like the default.
You can put the axes in the plot (though it tends to distract rather than help in many cases) by: > axis(1, pos=0) > axis(2, pos=0) You will need to draw the arrowheads yourself. There are options (under ?par) for tick length and how to suppress the default axes. Hope this helps, -- Gregory (Greg) L.
