Thank you for an almost reproducible example (we don't have x and you are
missing the closing ')' in plot. No worries, the problem is here:

par('usr')[1:2] and "at=1:12" is out of range. I think you wanted:
# x <- matrix(rt(12*4*2,3),nc=2,dimnames=list(NULL,c('france','germany')))
series1 = ts(x[,'france'], start=c(2000,1), frequency=4)
series2 = ts(x[,'germany'], start=c(2000,1), frequency=4)
ts.plot(series1, series2, col=c("blue", "red"), lwd=3, gpars=list(xaxt="n"))
axis(1, at=seq(2000-.25,2012,.25),labels=NA)
axis(1, at=2000:2012,labels=2000:2012,tcl= -.8,lwd.ticks=1.2,las=2)
Hope that did it.

What I've tried before is deleting the X axes via gpars=list(xaxt="n") in

So what was the problem? A reproducible example with your attempt at
annotating the ?axis would help.

[R] ts.plot and x axes customization
Dear List,
I would be pleased if someone can help me with the following issue:
I'm about to plot two time series in one plot via ts.plot which looks like:
ts.plot(series1, series2, main=main, xlab=xlab, ylab=ylab, col=c("green",
"red", "blue"), lwd=2)
The problem is, that R automatically sets the x axes labels in
5-year-intervalls. Every 5 years there's one tick and one label with the
respective year. Now I would like to customize the axes in a way that there
is a label every year and a tick every quarter.
In the previous code I've determined the time series with
series1 = ts(x, start=c(2000,1), frequency=4)
series2 = ts(y, start=c(2000,1), frequency=4)
What I've tried before is deleting the X axes via gpars=list(xaxt="n") in
the ts.plot-code. But after that I was not aible to add the customized axes
via axis()...
In advance, thank you very much for your help and hints!
Regards,
Jochem
