Subject: How to control number of significant digits (figures) in y-axis?
In-Reply-To: <1263135123537-1010693.post@n4.nabble.com>
Use the 'scales=' argument together with formatC:
x <- 1:10
y <- sample(10)
xyplot(y ~ x,
scales = list(
y = list(
at = 1:10,
lab = formatC(1:10,
format = "f", digits = 1))))
?formatC
?xyplot
