[R] surpressing tickmarks / labels x-as for two sets of boxplot (plotted as stacked boxplots)
Hello, I am trying to plot two sets of boxplots together. These are estimates of two experiments and seven factors. The results of the two experiments I want to plot as boxplots stacked to each other. Therefore I plot first the results of the first experiment; and next with the add option the second set of boxplots. The boxplots are plotted at 'at = 1:7 - 0.15 for the first experiment and at=1:7 + 0.15 for the second. I surpress plotting the tickmarks and labels succesfully for the first boxplot with xaxt=n. But for the second this does not work! I want to plot the tickmarks and labels at position at=1:7, as below using the axis function. But with this code also tickmarks and labels are plotted at position at=1:7+0.15. boxplot(coefs ~ factor, data = temp, boxwex = 0.25, at = 1:7 - 0.15, subset = experiment == first, col = red, xlab = factor,xaxt=n, ylab = individual estimates) boxplot(coefs ~ factor, data = temp, naxt=n,add = TRUE, boxwex = 0.25, at = 1:7 + 0.15, subset = experiment == second, col = green) axis(at=1:7,side=1,c(fac1,fac2,fac3,fac4,fac5,fac6,fac7)) legend(6,-0.5, c(experiment1, experiment2), fill = c(red, green)) Does anyone know how I can surpress these labels for the second boxplot? Thanks in advance, Karin __ 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.

Perhaps all you need is a bit more care in typing: naxt???
