The key is to not change the margins, set them once and stick with those margins. The next question then becomes "how do I leave area at the top/bottom for the title and common axis?" to which the answer is "Set outer margins at the beginning". Modifying your code: y<-rnorm(1:100) x<-rnorm(1:100

I think this task would be easier in lattice library(lattice) xyplot(y + y + y + y + y + y ~ x, outer=TRUE, layout=c(1,6), strip=FALSE, strip.left=TRUE, ylab="6 copies of the Y variable", main="put an interesting title here") Six different y variables instead of six

[R] Plot Area Dimensions

2012-11-19 Thread Richard James
Dear colleagues, I wish to create a figure with 6 plots arranged vertically with no spacing between them as they all have a common x-axis. However, using the code below I'm unable to get the plot area the same size for each plot. The bottom plot with the x-axis label is smaller than the others
