Hi Nico, Far from the most elegant solution, at least it works and will give you plenty of freedom to choose where to place the labels:
> plot.zoo(x, type="l", main="", xlab="", ylab="",yaxt="n", xaxs="i"); > title(main="Title", xlab="index") > mtext(names(x)[1],2,line=1,at=0.9) > mtext(names(x)[2],2,line=1,at=0.6) > mtext(names(x)[3],2,line=1,at=0.35) > mtext(names(x)[4],2,line=1,at=0.1) Hope it helps, José José Iparraguirre Chief Economist Age UK T 020 303 31482 E jose.iparragui...@ageuk.org.uk Twitter @jose.iparraguirre@ageuk Tavis House, 1- 6 Tavistock Square London, WC1H 9NB www.ageuk.org.uk | ageukblog.org.uk | @ageukcampaigns For evidence and statistics on the older population, visit the Age UK Knowledge Hub http://www.ageuk.org.uk/professional-resources-home/knowledge-hub-evidence-statistics/ -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Nicolai Schneider Sent: 10 September 2012 16:24 To: r-h...@stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Position of y axis labels in plot graphic Hello, I´m really sorry to bother you with this problem but it took me a whole day searching for a solution. I want the y axis labels positioned closer to the y axis, by default they are partly outside the window. Example: x <- as.zoo(EuStockMarkets) par(las=1) plot.zoo(x, type="l", main="", xlab="", yaxt="n", xaxs="i") title(main="Title", xlab="index") par(las=0) Thanks in advance!
