Hi, It would be useful to have more information and a reproducible example. For instance : 1. Why such margin at the left side ?2. Why do you have the same problem when you plot the legend at the bottom ? Have you tried to define the exact (x,y) location ?
3. Why do you say cex doesn't affect you x-labels ?
Regards, Eloi
I am working on bar plot and legend overlap plot. I attempted all position like topright, bottomright, topleft and bottomleft still same pblm is there.
These are not all positions. Tried to define the exact location (x,y)
par(mar=c(5,22.5,2,2))
barplot(t(data[,2:3]) , beside=TRUE, col=c(rgb(.537, .769, .933),rgb(.059,
.412, .659)), width = 1, horiz=TRUE,cex.names=.9, border ="white",las=1,
cex.axis= 1, cex.lab=1.2,axes = FALSE)
legend("topright", c("legend1","legend2"), cex=1.5, bty="n", fill =
c(rgb(.059, .412, .659),rgb(.537, .769, .933)));
What is "data". Please provide a fully reproducible example.
What are your x-labels ? Why cex doesn't affect it ? Please provide the code you used.No, My X label are so big so i cannot reduce margin and cex change won't affect it much. Is there any way to write legend first and start plot later.
I cannot reduce bar width. It is ok for me. Is there any way to merge two plots one with only legend and other with barplot?
Yes you can plot your graph and the legend in 2 different plot using par(mfrow=(2,1)) #plot first graph #plot legendbut the overall size of the graph would be smaller and you just said you don't want to reduce the bar width....
We cannot help you without a fully reproducible example and explanations of the (very picky) limitations you want.
