Hi all, I am plotting some data, and use text() to get variable names next to points on the graph. What is the best way to make sure that these text labels are readable and not overlapping when two datapoints are close? I've tried using jitter(), but the effect is random and doesn't always give a good result. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Best regards, Gustaf Example: -------------- x<-rnorm(20) x.labels<-vector(length=length(x)) for(i in 1:length(x))x.labels[i]<-paste(sample(LETTERS,5,replace=T),collapse="") y<-rnorm(length(x)) plot(x,y) text(x,y,x.labels) ###Most of the time some of the labels end up unreadable. #### ------------------- -- Gustaf Rydevik, M.Sci. tel: +46(0)703 051 451 address:Essingetorget 40,112 66 Stockholm, SE skype:gustaf_rydevik ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
