How can I right justify the right-axis tick values? They appear in the
example below as left-justified.
I have tried several different ways and all fail in different ways.
The example below creates the right axis tick value with no attempt at
adjustment.
alternates I have tried are
1. formatting the values. This doesn't work because they are in a
proportional font and the blanks
are too narrow.
2. gsub all leading " " characters into two " " characters. This
overcompenates because a blank
is slightly wider than half a digit width.
I prefer to keep the default font. I am willing to go to a fixed width font
(courier for example), but I haven't
figured out the incantation to make that work in graphics.
here is my example:
panel.right<- function(x, y, ...) {
panel.barchart(x, y, ...)
print(x);print(y)
panel.axis(side="right", at=pretty(y), outside=TRUE)
}
mybar<- function(...) {
args<- list(...)
args$par.settings=list(clip=list(panel="off"))
args$par.settings$layout.widths$axis.key.padding<- 4
do.call("barchart", args)
}
mybar(c(1,10,100,10,1) ~ "abcd", panel=panel.right, ylab.right="right")
You could do this ...
library(grid)
oldx <- grid.get("plot_01.ticklabels.right.panel.1.1")$x
grid.edit("plot_01.ticklabels.right.panel.1.1",
just="right",
x=oldx + stringWidth("000"))
