[R] Plotting x-axis labels perpendicular to the axis
Hi, The following command: axis(1, at= 1:50, labels= sampleNames(data)) produces an X-axis with 50 ticks and labels drawn from the sampleNames namespace. Problem is the labels at each tick are printed parallel to the x-axis and thus run into each other. How do I specify for the labels to be printed perpendicular to the x-axis? Thanks in advance.
