Hi
You might have more luck with par(mgp), for example, ...
par(las=1)
plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l")
axis(2, mgp=c(3, .5, 0))
axis(1, mgp=c(3, .3, 0))

Hello,
I want to reduce the distance between my ticks and their labels. I managed
to do it for the x-axis, but the y-axis puzzles me. Here's an example where
there is no space between the x-asix ticks and labels.
par(las=1)
plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l")
axis(2)
axis(1,padj=-1.5)
#However,
axis(2,padj=-1.5) #does not work
I understand from ?axis that padj will take its direction from the par(las).
In this case, padj will move labels up and down for both x-axis and y-axis.
I want my y-axis labels to be horizontal.
I can I reduce the distance between y-axis ticks and labels?
