Hi,
I want to plot with axis.Date(), but something is scaled incorrectly.
The red vertical line in is put on a totally wrong position. (sample below)
Do you have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thx
Christof
x11(width=30, height=20)
x<-seq(as.Date("2010-02-27"), as.Date("2011-03-28"),"month")
y <- seq(0,100,length=length(x))
plot(y ~ x, type="o", tck=1, xaxt="n")
axis.Date(1, at=x, labels=format(x,"%b\n%Y"), padj=0.5)
abline(v=as.Date("2011-01-01"), col="red", lty="dashed")

Works fine for me.
See
abline(v=as.Date("2011-01-27"), col="red", lty="dashed")
which is exactly on the date.
