Re: [R] Can't figure out why short figure won't work
[Sorry I can't quote past messages as I get mail on Nabble and have been told I can't reply through Nabble]. Thanks Kennel for recommended a narrowing range for usr y-limits. That does help quite a bit. But I found a disappointing aspect of the graphics system: When you change height= on the device call you have to change the y-coordinates to keep the same absolute vertical positioning.

Re: [R] Can't figure out why short figure won't work
lattice graphics allow you to specify units in cm or inches, and then the absolute vertical positioning can be controlled.

[R] Can't figure out why short figure won't work
I can't get the points and a and b to render correctly (they are
squeezed into the axis) unless I make the height of the figure waste a
lot of space. I'd appreciate any ideas. The code is below. Thanks!
png('/tmp/z.png', width=480, height=100)
par(mar=c(3,.5,1,.5))
plot.new()
par(usr=c(-10, 410, -.04, 1.04))
par(mgp=c(1.5,.5,0))
axis(1, at=seq(0, 400, by=50))
axis(1, at=seq(0, 400, by=25), tcl=-.25, labels=FALSE)
title(xlab='Mean Count')
points(x, rep(-.02, length(x)))
lines(rep(.25*1500, 2), c(-.04, .04), col='blue')
lines(rep(.196*1500, 2), c(-.04, .04), col='blue')
text(.25*1500, .07, 'a', col='blue')
text(.196*1500,.07, 'b', col='blue')
dev.off()
It works if I use height=350.

Re: [R] Can't figure out why short figure won't work
I tried
text(.25*1500, .14, 'a', col='blue')
text(.196*1500,.14, 'b', col='blue')
and got improved spacing.
Another option is to take control of ylim, and extend the bottom of ylim a
bit lower than the automatically defined value.

I get an error (x is missing), but I would try:
...
par(usr=c(-10,410,-0.1,1.04)
...
