Marc, Following the R FAQ you linked to, I wonder how to ALWAYS have the text and the plot region fit. I know that if the text is too long, one can use the par(mar = c(big.number, 4, 4 ,4)) and get the text to fit. The question is: Is there a way to make the plot "know" what "big.number" should be so the text wouldn't go beyond plot regions ?
(I suspect my question might get lost inside this topic, if so - I'll repeat it with a different header) Thanks again, Tal ----------------Contact Details:------------------------------------------------------- Contact me: tal.gal...@gmail.com | 972-52-7275845 Read me: www.talgalili.com (Hebrew) | www.biostatistics.co.il (Hebrew) | www.r-statistics.com/ (English) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Sat, Jan 23, 2010 at 5:56 PM, Marc Schwartz <marc_schwa...@me.com> wrote: > On Jan 23, 2010, at 9:51 AM, Uwe Ligges wrote: > > > > > > > On 22.01.2010 21:26, Tal Galili wrote: > >> Hello dear R help group, > >> > >> > >> I learned recently that one can change the rotation of labels in the > axis, > >> when using a lattice plot, for example: > >> > >> library(lattice) > >> barchart(yield ~ variety , data = barley, > >> groups = year, > >> ylab = "Barley Yield (bushels/acre)", > >> scales = list(rot = 45)) > >> > >> My question is: Is there an application of "rot" in something like > barplot ? > >> The only solution I know of is using "las = X" (X is 1,2, or 3) > >> Is there another solution/hack for this ? > > > > No, by design there is just the "las" way ... > > > > Uwe Ligges > > > Actually, there is a method and it is in the R FAQs: > > > http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f > > HTH, > > Marc Schwartz > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
