Re: [R] graph paper look

In addition to the recommendations to use the grid function, you could just do:

par(tck=1)

before calling the plotting functions.

Dear R People:

Short of doing a series of ablines, is there a way to produce graph
paper in R please?

Thanks,
Erin

You could look at grid(), but the Note in the documentation suggests If
more fine tuning is required, use abline(h = ., v = .) directly. Also
grid() uses the default axis positions so if you specify details of the axis
with xlim, ylim, etc the grid does not line up on the tickmarks. 

Using abline is pretty simple. Use xpd=TRUE to get abline to draw outside
the plot region.

oldpar - par(xpd=TRUE)
plot(c(0,1),c(0,1), axes=FALSE, pch=NA, xlab=, ylab=) 
abline(v=seq(-1, 2, .1), h=seq(-1, 2, .1), lty=3, col=gray)
abline(v=seq(-1, 2, .5), h=seq(-1, 2, .5), lty=1, col=gray)
par(oldpar)

You could draw a grid with grid, using grid.grill,

library(grid)

pdf(grid.pdf, width=21/2.54,height=29.7/2.54)
grid.grill(h = unit(seq(0, 297, by=1), mm),
   v = unit(seq(0, 210, by=1), mm), gp=gpar(col=grey,lwd=0.1))
grid.grill(h = unit(seq(0, 297, by=5), mm),
   v = unit(seq(0, 210, by=5), mm), gp=gpar(col=grey20,lwd=0.2))
grid.grill(h = unit(seq(0, 29.7, by=1), cm),
   v = unit(seq(0, 21, by=1), cm), gp=gpar(col=black,lwd=1))
dev.off()

How about ...

plot(x,y)
grid()
