It seems that there is a problem in
 displaying subtitle in general, independently from
 multi-plot display. when I do
 
 plot (c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7), type = "l")
  title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",cex.main=2,
 cex.sub = 2)
 
 subtitle doesn't get displayed

I was not sure what Carol was hoping for. I assumed

she was

hoping for? 
the full page analog of what subtitle would do with

an

individual? 
plot, i.e. that the subtitle would be below the plots

and

centered. If? 
she were hoping for just another line below the main

title,

then your? 
strategy or using "\n" within the string would be
effective.

I think that she may need to use mtext() in order to

get a

"true" sub- 
title of the first sort.

You are right David/Carol. It seems

outer=T

does not work for "Sub title". I'm not

sure

what Carol is looking for, but in case

you

need separate sub

titles for each graph, then you may want

to

use more than

one title statement. Like:


par(oma=c(2,2,2,2))par(mfrow =
c(1,2))plot(c(1,2,3),
c(9,8,7))title(sub ="sub title 1",
cex.sub = 0.75)plot(c(1,2,3),
c(9,8,7))title(sub ="sub title 2",
cex.sub = 0.75)

title(main = "Main title",
cex.main=1.5, outer = TRUE)
Not sure about how to do it for a single
"sub title" for whole graph.
Anyone?~Gary

Your code works for me on Windows Vista using "R version 2.10.0
Patched (2009-11-16 r50456)"
Try it starting from a fresh session.
