Re: [R] R plot split screen in uneven panels
Thank you, that worked good. I tried to read the help for layout/split.screen but I found it confusing.

Really? -- Not at all for me [Linux default device = X11(type="cairo")], where all these are identical on the left and the right plot.

Re: [R] R plot split screen in uneven panels
Incidentally, here is another way to do what (I think) you asked using layout(): m <- matrix(c(1,2,2), nrow =1) layout(m) plot(1:10, type = "p",main = "The First Plot") plot(10:1, type = "l", main ="The Second Plot") On my device, the plots use different size fonts, point sizes, etc. and so aesthetically differ. I do not know why and am too lazy to delve into the code.

Screen parrts shoeld be fractions (0 ...1), not percentages. And bottom first, so ... m = matrix(c(0,20,0,40, 20,60,0,40)/100, byrow=T, ncol=4) ... will work.

Re: [R] R plot split screen in uneven panels
?layout Please read the Help file **carefully** and work through the **examples**. I cannot explain better than they. Here is code using layout() that I think does what you want: m <- matrix(1:2, nrow =1) layout(m, widths = c(1,2)) plot(1:10, type = "p",main = "The First Plot") plot(10:1, type = "l", main ="The Second Plot") Note that both the lattice package and ggplot2 can also do this sort of thing much more flexibly(and therefore requiring more effort to learn).
