You might want to contact the maintainer (cc'd). In the meantime, you should be able to place an object ylim in your workspace before calling the function: ylim <- c(0, 10) mhtplot(test, ylim = c(0, 10)) Of course, you could also just fixt the function (it's short and the fix is easy). -Peter Ehlers On 2010-06-23 8:47, vaneet wrote: > > Hello all, > > I am trying to make a genome association plot for p-values related to SNPs > and was fortunate to find that R contains a package that produces Manhattan > plots which is what's preferred for my current project.
