grid.yaxis: Draw a Y-Axis

grid.yaxis

R Documentation

Draw a Y-Axis

Description

These functions create and draw a y-axis.

Usage

grid.yaxis(at = NULL, label = TRUE, main = TRUE,
           edits = NULL, name = NULL,
           gp = gpar(), draw = TRUE, vp = NULL)

yaxisGrob(at = NULL, label = TRUE, main = TRUE,
          edits = NULL, name = NULL,
          gp = gpar(), vp = NULL)

Arguments

`at`	A numeric vector of y-value locations for the tick marks.
`label`	A logical value indicating whether to draw the labels on the tick marks, or an expression or character vector which specify the labels to use. If not logical, must be the same length as the `at` argument.
`main`	A logical value indicating whether to draw the axis at the left (`TRUE`) or at the right (`FALSE`) of the viewport.
`edits`	A gEdit or gEditList containing edit operations to apply (to the children of the axis) when the axis is first created and during redrawing whenever `at` is `NULL`.
`name`	A character identifier.
`gp`	An object of class `"gpar"`, typically the output from a call to the function `gpar`. This is basically a list of graphical parameter settings.
`draw`	A logical value indicating whether graphics output should be produced.
`vp`	A Grid viewport object (or `NULL`).

Details

Both functions create a yaxis grob (a graphical object describing a yaxis), but only grid.yaxis draws the yaxis (and then only if draw is TRUE).
