Dear expeRts, how can I decrease the space between the tick marks and the corresponding labels in an splom? See here: library(lattice) U <- matrix(runif(4000), ncol = 8) splom(U, axis.text.cex = 0.2) # => space between the [small] tick labels and tick marks is/seems to be too large I checked ?panel.pairs but could not find an option for that. Cheers, Marius

So you want more tick marks?
I checked ?panel.pairs but could not find an option for that.
What about the pscales argument? A single number would increase the number of ticks, or a list with "at" and "labels" values can be passed. Seem to be just what you asked for. -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT
Dear David, thank you for your answer. As I wrote, I am looking for an option to control the *space* between the tick marks and the corresponding labels. I am happy with the *number* of tick marks and their default values. As far as I know, pscales can't control the space, so it is *not* what I am looking for. Cheers, Marius

Marius,
I think that you mean something like the following:
U <- matrix(runif(300), ncol = 3)
splom(U, par.settings = list(
axis.components = list(
left = list(pad1 = 3)
)
)
)
which will adjust the left axis; you'll have to add
right, top, bottom components to handle those as well.
Have a look at what trellis.par.get() produces and
check the axis.components section.

Dear Peter, thank you very much, *precisely* what I was looking for! Cheers, Marius
