Thanks a lot!
I looked at the document. It shows how to set the size of the canvas,
I don't believe it does.
but not how to change it *after* plotting. Now I start with a bigger
canvas, but the plot is scaled into it, so I am having the same problem
again :(
You need to set the *margins* not the size of the canvas. See par's mai
and mar and the figures in that document.
Hint: see the footer of this message -- if you provide a reproducible
example and all the info the posting guide asks for you will get more
informative answers.
I keep on reading tough. Thanks a lot for your help!

You do this by adjusting the margin sizes. Can I suggest you read 'An
Introduction to R', which has a section on the layout of graphics (perhaps
the only area in which it is comprehensive).

Hi R world,
I am such a newbie, with only 4-5 days of R experience. I did a search in
forum history but couldn't find a solution to my problem... Sorry if it's
obvious:
I managed to draw a barplot (yey!) with xlabels of 'long' names
(filenames,
to be particular). To make them readable, I place them perpendicular to
the
axis (las=2). When I do that, however, these names don't fit inside the
Quartz window and they are truncated.
Is there a way to change the Quartz window size after plotting (or, as an
alternative, to scale the plot down so it fits in there) ?
Thanks a lot!
