Dear Tom,
Many thanks. I think this gets me in the right direction, but concatenates all levels into one long level. Any further thoughts?
Best regards,
Jan

done something like
levels(x) <- paste(strwrap(levels(x),20,prefix =

I am using barplot, and barplot2 in the gregmisc bundle, in the following way:
barplot2(sort(xtabs(expend / 1000 ~ theme)), col = c(mdg7, mdg8, mdg3, mdg1), horiz = T, las = 1, xlab = "$ '000", plot.grid = T)
The problem is that the values of 'theme', which is a
factor, are in
some cases rather long, so that I would like to wrap/split
them at a
space once they exceed, say, 20 characters. What I'm doing now is specifying names.arg manually with '\n' where I want the breaks, but I would like to automate the process.
I've looked for a solution using 'strwrap', but am not sure how to apply it in this situation.
