By default the coordinates go from 0 to 1 in both the x and y directions. Try: > par(mfrow=c(2,2)) > boxplot(rnorm(100)) > boxplot(runif(100)) > boxplot(rexp(100, 1/3)) > plot.new() > legend( 0,1, pch=1:3, legend=c('a','b','c'), lty=1, > col=c('red','green','blue')) > Hope this helps, -- Gregory (Greg) L.
