Thanks for the reply. I think I've figured it out, you can set this with
the mgp parameter.
So I'd use the following statement instead:
axis(1, at=foo$plot.x, labels=foo$plot.x, mgp=c(3,0.5,1)) #this brings the
axis labels closer to the axis line

Hi Andrew,
Perhaps this example would help. You can add in spaces to the mtext text
to move the text sideways.
par(mai=c(0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5),oma=c(2,2,2,2)) #mai units are INCHES, oma
units are LINES
plot(runif(50),xlab="xlab",ylab="ylab",bty="l") #n.b. these labels don't
appear
mtext("First in
Here's a naive question about axis()
How do you control the location of the labels with the axis() command?
In the following example:
foo <- data.frame(plot.x=seq(1:3), plot.y=seq(4:6))
plot(foo$plot.x, foo$plot.y, type='n', axes=FALSE)
points(foo$plot.x, foo$plot.y)
axis(1, at=foo$plot.x, label
3 matches
