Hi,
Try this,
library(grid)
value <- c(0.1)
lab <- c("test",
expression(bquote(paste(.(value[1]*100), " and percentiles1",
sep=""))),
bquote(expression(.(value[1]*100)*" and percentiles2")),
bquote(paste(.(value[1]*100), " and percentiles3", sep="")) )
grid.newpage()
grid.text(eval(lab[1]), x=0.5, y=unit(1,"npc")-unit(1,"lines"))
grid.text(eval(lab[2]), x=0.5, y=unit(1,"npc")-unit(2,"lines"))
grid.text(eval(lab[3]), x=0.5, y=unit(1,"npc")-unit(3,"lines"))
grid.text(lab[4], x=0.5, y=unit(1,"npc")-unit(4,"lines"))
My preference goes for the last one.
HTH,
baptiste
