mainnameUnit = expression(paste("MoM %", Delta, " Apptmnt Prices", sep=""))
ymin <- min(percentDiff[,c(6, 9, 33, 36, seq(15,30,3), 3)]) -1
ymax <- max(percentDiff[,c(6, 9, 33, 36, seq(15,30,3), 3)]) +1
barplot(percentDiff[,c(6, 9, 33, 36, seq(15,30,3), 3)], las=2, beside=T,
ylim=c(ymin, ymax), legend.text=c(prior2m, prior1m, ee),
main=mainnameUnit)
mtext(stamp, cex=0.75, line=0, side=1, adj=1, outer=T)
mtext("Source: ASX", cex=0.75, side=1, adj=0, outer=T)
dev.off()
i also have a few assorted issues that i cannot figure out -- i would
like to remove the box around the bar plot, and add some intro text
above the key, as i have done in the line plot case.
thanks and best regards

Sir,
I have hit a the limits of my understanding of text / par /
opar etc...
I have a few related xts data frames which have multiple
columns, and have
written a for-loop to make a set of charts - however i do
not get any
margin text when i run the loop.
when i test the code outside of the loop the margin text
appears - however
when i run the loop the margin text does not appear ... what
gives?
You're calling par() before png(). Your par() settings will
apply to the device that was active before you open the png()
device, not to it.

here is the code
for (col in 1:ncol(xdf)){
par(mar=c(3.5, 4.5, 2, 1), oma=c(2,0,0,0))
ymin = min(xdf[,col]) - 20
ymax = max(xdf[,col]) + 20
png(paste(drive, names(xdf)[col], '.png', sep=""))
plot(coredata(yr09_10[,col]), type='l', ylim=c(ymin,
ymax), col=1, lwd=2,
las=1, xlab="", ylab="",
xaxt='n', main=names(xdf)[col])
lines(coredata(yr10_11[,col]), col=2, lwd=2)
lines(coredata(yr11_12[,col]), col=3, lwd=2)
axis(1, at=c(1:365), labels=format(index(yr09_10),
"%d-%b"), tck=0.01,
las=1)
legend("bottom", inset=0.02, title="Financial Years",
c("09/10", "10/11",
"11/12"), col=c(1,2,3), lwd=3, horiz=TRUE, bty='n')
mtext(stamp, cex=0.75, line=0, side=1, adj=1, outer=T)
mtext("Source: ABS", cex=0.75, side=1, adj=0, outer=T)
dev.off()
}
the charts are certainly re-made each time (i've checked
this!) and they
appear as desired, excepting the absence of the margin text.
could anyone please help?
tips on any other aspects of the above code are also very
welcome.
thanks and best regards
