RE: [R] font sizes for row.names of dendograms
The error message states that you are passing a parameter called cex which has not been used. If you look at ?plclust more closely you will see it does not have cex parameter. However the S3 method for class hclust, plot, does? So does this help? hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") plot(hc,cex = 0.5) Tom > -Original Message- > From: Brett Stansfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, 24 March 2005 11:42 AM > To: R help (E-mail) > Subject: [R] font sizes for row.names of dendograms > > > Dear R > I recently performed a cluster analysis.

[R] font sizes for row.names of dendograms
Dear R I recently performed a cluster analysis. It produced the dendogram no problem but unfortunately the font size of the row.names were all cluttered due to their large size So I tried to change the font size using plclust(cluster.results, labels=iris$specie, cex=0.8) and R came back to me saying Error in plclust(cluster.results, labels = iris$specie, cex = 0.8) : unused argument(s) (cex ...) > what am I doing wrong here brett stansfield __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html

A typical call might be
par1(); plot(1:5); par0()
par2(); plot(1:10); par0()
It would be more useful to write this as a parser but I do not know how.
BTW, why does calling par(), even with no.readonly=TRUE argument always
insists on opening a graphics window when there is none present. This is
a little bit annoying as the focus changes to the plotting window. Does
anyone know how to turn this feature off ?
par() applies setting to the current device (or get from the current
device). If no device has been opened and par() is called, a device is
opened to get the settings from.

is means to load a whole load of graphical settings in one go; one setting
to look at on-screen, one setting for written reports, one setting for
slides. Can anyone suggest a good way of going about this.

It does, e.g. compare pointsize=8 / pointsize=14
If you want something different, maybe setting argument "cex" (and
friends) in par() does what you want. See ?par.
