The following code does almost everything I want except the red rectangle should be aligned flush with square. There's something I haven't understood about the grid.layout function. The second time I use it, it does what I expect, but there's something wrong with the first one. require(grid) N <- 5 variates <- LETTERS[1:N] grid.newpage() plot.square <- 2 * length(variates)# cm text.wid <- 3 # cm vp <- grid.layout(nrow = 1, ncol = 2, widths = c(text.wid, plot.square), heights = plot.square, default.units = "cm") pushViewport(viewport(layout = vp, layout.pos.row = 1, layout.pos.col = 2)) ## vpp <- grid.layout(nrow = length(variates), ncol = length(variates), widths = 2, heights = 2, default.units = "cm") pushViewport(viewport(layout = vpp)) for(i in seq(variates)){ for(j in seq(variates)){ pushViewport(viewport(layout = vpp, layout.pos.col = j, layout.pos.row = i)) grid.rect(gp=gpar(lty='dashed')) popViewport(1) } } popViewport(1) pushViewport(viewport(layout = vp, layout.pos.col = 1, layout.pos.row = 1)) grid.rect(gp=gpar(col = "red", width = 3)) ylab.pos <- seq(variates)/length(variates) ylab.pos <- ylab.pos - ylab.pos[1]/2 for(i in seq(variates)){ grid.text(rev(variates)[i], x = 0.9, gp=gpar(cex = .8), y = ylab.pos[i], default.units = "npc", just="right") } Suggestions about the more intelligent use of pushViewport and popViewport would also be appreciated.
