Dear all, consider the following plot:
plot(1:5, 5:1, xaxt="n") axis(1, at=1:5, labels=c(1,2,expression(3==beta[foooooo]),4,5)) the label at 3 is not nice, so consider this plot(1:5, 5:1, xaxt="n") axis(1, at=1:5, labels=c(1,2,expression(3==beta[foooooo]),4,5), padj=c(0,0,0.18,0,0)) Now I tried to move the label horizontally so that the equality sign is vertically aligned with the tick. Since hadj moves all labels, I tried: plot(1:5, 5:1, xaxt="n") axis(1, at=1:5, labels=c(1,2,expression(3==beta[foooooo]),4,5), hadj=c(0,0,0.22,0,0), padj=c(0,0,0.18,0,0)) Why is it not possible to individually move the labels horizontally? Simply moving all of them does not look very good... plot(1:5, 5:1, xaxt="n") axis(1, at=1:5, labels=c(1,2,expression(3==beta[foooooo]),4,5), hadj=0.22, padj=c(0,0,0.18,0,0)) Cheers, Marius ______________________________________________ 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.
