Hey Mark, The text is actually there -- I can just see the bottom of the 'y' and the 'p' in my plotting window. You can move the text down (into the plot) with the argument line. E.g.:
mtext(text = "my test plots", side = 3, outer = TRUE, line=-2) Hope that helps... - Simon Bonner Post-Doctoral Fellow Department of Statistics, UBC www.simon.bonners.ca On Mon, 2009-10-12 at 13:29 -0400, Mark Kimpel wrote: > mtext(text = "my test plots", side = 3, outer = TRUE) ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
