Hi everyone.
I have a quick question regarding the look of my legend in my plot.
As you
can see in the next figure, I have 3 series.
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n3067466/legend.png
However, I find rather difficult to differentiate the series 1 and 3
according to their line type (lty). I would like to know if it was
possible
to make the line type in the legend to appear more clearly. For
example, to
give more horizontal space each side of the symbols "square" to have a
better idea of the line type.
The specifics will depend on what plotting function produced the graph
from which you have given us a bitmap snapshot BUT NOT SHOWN US CODE
OR SAMPLE DATA. In xyplot you would be working with the key/lines/size
elements (after showing us which of the several legend options were
specified):
?xyplot
In base graphics I do not see a "handle" on the line length but
(perhaps) you could emphasize the line compenent by increasing cex
which affects all components and at the same time decrease the point
size. E.g.:
legend( ..., cex=1.5, pt.cex=0.8, cex=1.5, pt.cex=0.8, ...)
