Hi,

We are working on R project with the latest version 2.9.0. We are using matplot 
and barplot functions to draw different graphs. End user may generate graphs 
for large number of data. Also, each point to be plotted may have large name 
(around 170 characters). These names (Y axis points) need to be displayed in 
legend for the graph. However, it is not possible to fit these large names in 
legend on a R window when large number of points are selected for trending.

We tried setting the font and window size for the graphs using the graphical 
parameters. However, it did not help for large number of points having long 
names. Further, we tried using R packages tcltk and tkrplot to display graphs 
and legend in a Tk widget instead of R window. We are able to display the full 
description of plotting points on click on the corresponding point style. 
However, we are not able to save/export this graph(widget) in some format. 

Currently, we are displaying the legend for the points in a separate R window. 
But, it does not seem to be associated with graphs generated. We need to have 
the actual graph and legend associated with it on a same window with all the 
plotted points and point styles. 

Is there any other way to solve this display issue of large number of data used 
for plotting?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Anisha Sinnarkar
