 It seems that there is a problem in
 displaying subtitle in general, independently from
 multi-plot display. when I do
plot (c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7), type = "l")
  title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",cex.main=2,
 cex.sub = 2)


You do not know that you have to look at the bottom of the graphics to find the subtitle, do you?

 subtitle doesn't get displayed

Try the line= argument on title()

opar <- par(oma = 4 * c(1, 1, 1, 1),
no.readonly =
TRUE)
par(mfrow = 1:2)
plot(1:3, 9:7)
plot(1:3, 7:9)
for(i in 1:3) title(main = i, line = i, outer =
TRUE)
par(opar)

I was not sure what Carol was hoping for. I assumed
she was
hoping for the full page analog of what subtitle would do with
an
individual plot, i.e. that the subtitle would be below the plots
and
centered. If she were hoping for just another line below the main
title,
then your strategy or using "\n" within the string would be
effective.

I think that she may need to use mtext() in order to
get a
"true" sub- title of the first sort.

Thanks Gary. No I want one subtitle for all
plots
below the main
title. subtitle should work but if doesn't at
the
worst case I
could do as follows:

title(main = "Main title\nSub title",outer =
TRUE,
cex.main=1.5,...)

You are right David/Carol. It seems
outer=T
does not work for "Sub title". I'm not
sure
what Carol is looking for, but in case
you
need separate sub
titles for each graph, then you may want
to
use more than
one title statement. Like:


par(oma=c(2,2,2,2))par(mfrow =
c(1,2))plot(c(1,2,3),
c(9,8,7))title(sub ="sub title 1",
cex.sub = 0.75)plot(c(1,2,3),
c(9,8,7))title(sub ="sub title 2",
cex.sub = 0.75)

title(main = "Main title",
cex.main=1.5, outer = TRUE)
Not sure about how to do it for a single
"sub title" for whole graph.
Anyone?~Gary

Hi Carol,



Try this




par(oma=c(2,2,2,2))

par(mfrow = c(1,2))

plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))

plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))

title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub
title",outer = TRUE, cex.main=1.5,


cex.sub = 1.5)




I'm curious about what you are seeing
with
that
sequence. On a Mac running R 2.10.0 I am
not
seeing the
subtitle.

David




par(oma=c(2,2,2,2)) -- can be used to
define
outline of the
plot. Arguments

here are for "bottom", "left",
"top", "right"; which ofcourse can be
changed

according to need. HTH

Hi,

I got problem in using title function to
create a title for
multiple plots

presented together by par. As can be seen
in
the attached
file, the title is

displayed truncated and the subtitle
doesn't
get
displayed. Here is the

code:



par(mfrow = c(1,2))

plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))

plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))

title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub
title",outer = TRUE, cex.main=1.5,

cex.sub = 1.5)
