Hi, I have been trying draw tickmark labels along the y - axis perpendicular to the y axis while labels along the x - axis parallel to x axis while making box plot.
Here is my test dataset. TData ID Ratio 1 0 7.075 2 0 7.414 3 0 7.403 4 0 7.168 5 0 6.820 6 0 7.294 7 0 7.238 8 0 7.938 9 1 7.708 10 1 8.691 11 1 8.714 12 1 8.066 13 1 8.949 14 1 8.590 15 1 8.714 16 1 8.601 boxplot(Ratio ~ ID, data=TData) makes box plot with tickmark labels parallel to the y - axis. So I try boxplot(Ratio ~ ID, data=TData, axes=FALSE) par(las=0) axis(1) and I get x - axis ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 (why?) and boxes at 1 and 2. par(las=2) axis(2) box() So, if I set tickmark labels parallel to y - axis somehow the x - axis range is not what I expect even if I use xlim = c(0.0, 3.0) in boxplot(Ratio ~ Id, data=TData, axes=FALSE, xlim=c(0.0, 3.0)) par(las=0) axis(1) Plots are in the attachments in pdf format. I appreciate any tips. I am using R 2.2.0 (2005-10-06) on FC4. Michal
