Hi Erin,
Here's a kinda clunky way to get your plot title. It can be modified
to do fancier things like intersperse symbols with letters but you may
need no more than this. Have fun.
par(mar=c(5,4,5,2))
plot(0,xlim=c(-1,1),ylim=c(-1,1),type="n",xlab="Nonsense",ylab="Intensity")
points(runif(4,-1,1),runif(4,-1,1),pch=3)
points(runif(4,-1,1),runif(4,-1,1),pch=4)
symbol_n_text<-function(x,y,pch,txt,adj=0,cex=1) {
oldcex<-par(cex=cex)
x<-x-(strwidth("M ")+strwidth(txt))/2
points(x,y,pch=pch)
x<-x+strwidth("M ")
text(x,y,txt,adj=adj)
par(oldcex)
}
par(xpd=TRUE)
symbol_n_text(0,1.35,3,"your stuff",cex=1.5)
symbol_n_text(0,1.2,4,"my stuff",cex=1.5)
Thanks for the nod, Bert.
