Dear R-Maillist members,
I would like to label the y-axis of a plot with a mathematical expression
"sed.rate mm a-1", where the "-1" is printed subscript.
That's not a reproducible example.
I am using font.lab=15 for the x-axis. However, when plotting the y-axis
with the expression-function it appears in a different font. Does
anybody knows how to use font.lab=15 in the expression as well?
Only the use of 'family' is portable -- we have no idea what font 15 is,
and AFAIK it is specific to the windows() family of devices. Plotmath
will use the current family, e.g.
plot(1:10, ylab=expression(y^-1), family="serif")
uses the serif font (normally Times). So you should be able to set up a
family to do this.
PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
PLEASE do, and supply the information asked for next time.
