Re: [R] lattice: Set x-axis in italics only
Hi: demo(graphics) has a lot of nice examples of how to use various features - one of them is font selection. font = 3 => italic font = 4 => bold italic You need to select the correct aspect of the plot, however: font.main, font.sub, font.lab or font.axis (from par()).

I tried with the "axis" function but no luck, and it seems that affects both axes. Any tip? In bwplot just add: ..., scales=list(x=list(font=3)), In this case (and I suppose many others) lattice is much more flexible than base. I initially tried what appeared to be valid strategies with boxplot and ended up tied in knots. Then I noticed your subject line and it was trivial.

Hi You may need to investigate ?plotmath and ?expression for the italics or possibly add a font=... somewhere Sorry cannot be more help it is too late here Duncan Duncan Mackay Department of Agronomy and Soil Science University of New England ARMIDALE NSW 2351 Email home: mac...@northnet.com.au At 22:50 13/09/2010, you wrote: Dear list, I making some box-and-whisker plots in R with vertebrate data.

[R] lattice: Set x-axis in italics only
Dear list, I making some box-and-whisker plots in R with vertebrate data. The x axis are species names that must be in italics. I tried with the "axis" function but no luck, and it seems that affects both axes. Any tip? Thanks a lot in Advance.
