I think it is behaving as I'd expect: the y adjustment of 0 says that the bottom of the text aligns with the specified point, while the y adjustment of 1 says that the top of the text aligns there. This is consistent with the description for x: 0 says the left end aligns, 1 says the right end aligns.
The text may be a little terse, but it is consistent. Duncan Murdoch ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
