Dear R users,
I have a problem in R plot. I want to plot a multipanel chart (eg 4
subplots like in the following code), but I want to remove the line of the
first 3 x axis, without break the multipanel box. Is there a possibility to
succeed?
Thank you very much!
#Generate the data for the four graphs
x <- seq(1, 50, 1)
y1 <- 10*rnorm(50)
y2 <- 100*rnorm(50)
y3 <- 1000*rnorm(50)
y4 <- 10000*rnorm(50)
#Set up the plot area so that multiple graphs can be crammed together
par(pty="m", plt=c(0.1, 1, 0, 1), omd=c(0.1,0.9,0.1,0.9))
#Set the area up for 4 plots
par(mfrow = c(4, 1))
#Plot the top graph with nothing in it =========================
plot(x, y1, xlim=range(x), type="n", xaxt="n", yaxt="n",axes=T, main="",
xlab="", ylab="")
mtext("Four Y Plots With the Same X", 3, line=1, cex=1.5)
#Store the x-axis data of the top plot so it can be used on the other graphs
pardat<-par()
xaxisdat<-seq(pardat$xaxp[1],pardat$xaxp[2],(pardat$xaxp[2]-pardat$xaxp[1])/pardat$xaxp[3])
