Namely: plot(rnorm(100), rnorm(100)) pu <- par()$usr x <- pu[1] * 0.5 + pu[2] * 0.5 y <- pu[3] * 0.1 + pu[4] * 0.9 text(x, y, "the quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog") Alberto Monteiro ______________________________________________ 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.
