Hi R users,
The margin parameter mar is measured in unit of lines, the size of which is
automatically adjusted during plotting. I am wondering how can get the size
of a line and how can I control the margin size by controlling the line
size? (I know I can use mai to control the absolute size of margin, but in
some situations that parameter does not exist. For example, heatmap() only
accept mar as a parameter to adjust the space for the axes labels.) I'd
appreciate any help.
You need to look at par(). I believe a line would be
par("lheight")*par("cin")[2] inches. You can use grconvertX or
grconvertY to convert from inches to other units.
