Disclaimer: I have read plotmath, but maybe it's too late today: How do I get the two labels to be the same:
plot.new() lab =expression(paste("Estimated ", t[50]," from tgv")) text(0.5,0.5,lab) # Should look the same as above. I could not get the substitute right: what = "tgv" lab =expression(paste("Estimated ", t[50]," from ",what)) text(0.5,0.2,lab) Dieter ______________________________________________ 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.
