Hi Gabor,
Thanks very much.
I tried that:
plotmonths<-function(z,...){
plot(z,xaxt="n",...)
tt <- time(z)
m <- unique(as.Date(as.yearmon(tt)))
jan <- format(m, "%m") == "01"
mlab <- substr(months(m[!jan]), 1, 1)
Axis(side = 1, at = m[!jan], labels = mlab, tcl = -0.3, cex.axis = 0.7)
#if(abs(as.numeric(head(index(z),1)-tail(index(z),1)))>367)
if(any(jan))
Axis(side = 1, at = m[jan], labels = format(m[jan], "%y"), tcl =
-0.7)
Axis(side = 1, at = unique(as.Date(as.yearqtr(tt))), labels = FALSE)
}
But that fails with the same error message:
Error in axis(side, at = z, labels = labels, ...) :
'at' and 'labels' lengths differ, 0 != 1
I think the problem is that, if one has a time series that goes from the
15th of Jan 2008 to 4 Nov 2008, in the absence of the test above, the
script attempts to place "08" at the very left when that tick does not
really get placed by plot.zoo. By testing that the time series is at least
a year long, one ensures that there is space for the "08" tick.
