Rotating Titles
2 messages · Brendan Wiltse, Uwe Ligges
Edit the strat.plot function, particularly the line
text(tks1[1], pos, labels = colnames(d)[i], adj = c(0,
1), srt = 90, cex = cex.xlabel, xpd = NA)
where the rotation is hardcoded or ask the maintainer to make it an
argument to the function so that you can change it on calling the plot
function.

Hi All, I am looking for help in rotating species titles produced using the strat.plot( ) function in the rioja package. This function produces a stratigraphic plot of paleoenvironmental data. Currently the titles of each species are plotted vertically while they are typically plotted at a 45 degree angle in other programs. Does anyone have any idea of how to rotates these titles? Below is an example plot (taken from the rioja help file) made the function.
