Hello, I try to make barplots with rather wide labels. A simplified example of this:x<- c(12, 33, 56, 67, 15, 66) names(x)<- c('Richard with a long surname','Minnie with a long name,'Albert','Helen','Joe','Kingston') barplot(x, las = 2) Now the label 'Richard with a long surname' is too long to fit beneath the bars. A simple solution would be enlarge the space for the labels by positioning the bar region higher. But I cannot find how to do this. Please Help!
Hi Frans, Does this do what you want? library(plotrix) barp(x,names.arg=names(x),staxx=TRUE) Jim ______________________________________________ [email protected] 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.
