hi all,
I want to do a plot and put the legend on the left of y axis this is my
code:
x<-seq(1980,2005,1)
plot(x,tfa_ita,type="l",col=1,xlim=c(1979,2005),ylim=c(0.2,1.7),xlab="",ylab="",main="Totale
Attivita` Finanziarie")
lines(x,tfa_spa,type="l",col=2)
lines(x,tfa_aus,type="l",col=3)
lines(x,tfa_uk,type="l",col=4)
lines(x,tfa_ger,type="l",col=5)
lines(x,tfa_usa,type="l",col=1,lty=4)
lines(x,tfa_jap,type="l",col=2,lty=4)
lines(x,tfa_can,type="l",col=3,lty=4)
lines(x,tfa_fra,type="l",col=4,lty=4)
legend(locator[1],c("ita","spa","aus","uk","ger","usa","jap","can","fra"),col=c(1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4),lty=c(1,1,1,1,1,4,4,4,4))
when I touch the graphics to put the legend, R puts it on my lines and not
on the left of y axis
Hi Valeria, The legend command should start with locator(1) using parentheses and not square brackets. This is probably just a typo in your email, or you wouldn't have gotten a legend at all. By default, the legend is placed with the upper left corner at the user coordinates specified. If you want to place it partly outside the plot, use par(xpd=TRUE) and box.col=(par"bg"). Jim
