sorry i misread the question -- i thought you wanted the two plots were in one row. Here are a few options,
1- use ggplot2 or lattice, this is the default position for the labels in a plot with facets > library(ggplot2) > qplot(mpg, wt, data=mtcars, facets=vs ~ .) 2- use layout() or split.screen() or the gridBase package to split the window in three regions, > layout(matrix(c(3,1,3,2), 2, 2, byrow = TRUE), width=c(1,5)) > layout.show(3) > plot(1:10) > plot(1:10) > plot.new() # necessary to draw something here > text(0.5,0.5,"y label",srt=90) HTH, baptiste On 1 Jun 2009, at 22:30, Andre Nathan wrote: > On Mon, 2009-06-01 at 22:24 +0200, baptiste auguie wrote: >> you can use title() with the sub argument, >> >> title(sub="x label", outer=T) # you might want to play around with >> line argument > > Can title() span two plots?
