Dear List,
This is an embarrassing question, but I can seem to make this work…How do I
change the font size on the xlab and on the numbers shown in the x-axis on
the time series plot below. The arguments cex.lab and cex.axis do not seem
to be 'passing' to the plot function.
plot(ts(rnorm(100), start=2004, freq=12),
ylab="RQI", xlab="My X lab", col="black", cex.lab=0.1, cex.axis=0.7)
This seems to be a result of the way plot.ts is coded.
It does seem unnecessarily restrictive to me, but there
may be a good reason and it's easy to work around.
If you want both axes/labels to be scaled the same way,
just do:
op <- par(cex.axis = 0.7, cex.lab = 0.1)
plot(tsobject)
par(op)
For more control over the axes, skip labelling with the
plot call and add the axes/labels with axis() and title():
plot(tsobject, ann=FALSE, axes=FALSE, frame=TRUE)
axis(2, cex.axis=0.5)
axis(1, cex.axis=1.2)
title(xlab="this is X", cex.lab=0.8)
