I have a simple barchart with horizontal bars and horizontal tick labels, produced with barplot(x, horiz = T, names.arg = c, las = 1) The labels are longish strings, truncated on the plot. I wish to leave more space for the left margin, and experiment with mar parameter, barplot(x, horiz = T, names.arg = c, las = 1, mar = c(5, 15, 4, 2))
par(mar = c(5, 15, 4, 2)) barplot(x, .....) I always find it best to set my graphics pars first instead of overloading the plot call (where, as you've discovered, some of the par settings don't work). -Peter Ehlers
trying various values for the second vector element, but do not notice any change. Consulting this nice tutorial http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Graphics/Basics/mar-oma/index.htm has not helped. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.
