Hi,
the graphical parameter "cex.axis" does not have any affect for "boxplot":
data(iris) boxplot(iris[,1:4], ylab="y", cex.lab=2, cex.axis=2)
The patch is simply adding "cex.axis" to the search for axis relevant parameters in "bxp":
ax.pars <- pars[names(pars) %in% c("xaxt", "yaxt", "las", "cex.axis")]
The following works: par(cex.axis=2) boxplot(iris[,1:4], ylab="y")
Hence not clearly a bug.
And again we have the discusion whether to implement almost all par() arguments in functions like boxplot() / bxp() or not. I'll bet there are also a few other par() arguments that don't work with bxp().
I refer to Martin Maechler's mail (17.12.02: [Rd] Changing "..." inside a function: impossible? desirable?).
Is there a decision (by R-Core)?
Is it desirable to have (almost) (all) par() arguments work as arguments of highlevel plot functions?

Best,
Torsten
