You are very close. The argument scales(list(y=list())) supports multiple arguments for the y axis so you need to tell lattice how to use testylabels:
dotplot(testmatrix, scales=list(y=list(labels=testylabels), xlab=NULL)) ------------------------------------- David L Carlson Department of Anthropology Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77840-4352 -----Original Message----- From: R-help [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, December 15, 2014 10:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [R] dotplot axes labelling Subscribers, What is my mistake with the following example: library(lattice) testmatrix<-matrix(c(1,2,3,4,3,6,12,24),nrow=4,ncol=2) testylabels<-c('w1','x1','y1','z1') dotplot(testmatrix, scales=list(y=list(testylabels)), xlab=NULL) #testylabels not shown, instead 'D' 'C' 'B' 'A' Thanks in advance. -- ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
