mframe: Multiple Frames for Plotting

In regr0: Building regression models

Description

This is a short-cut to set some graphical parameters

Usage

mframe(mfrow = NULL, mfcol = NULL, mft = NULL, row = TRUE,
  oma = c(0, 0, 2, 1), mar = getUserOption("mar"),
  mgp = getUserOption("mgp"), ...)

Arguments

mfrow, mfcol	number of rows and columns of panels. The default is 1 for both, which will reset the subdivision of the plotting page.
mft	total number of panels, to be split into mfrow and mfcol by the function. The result depends on the current aspect ratio (ratio of height to width) of the plotting area.
row	if TRUE, the panels will be used by rows, otherwise, by columns
oma, mar, mgp, ...	further graphical parameters passed to par(...).

Details

The function calls par. Its purpose is to simplify a call like par(mfrow=c(3,4)) to mframe(3,4) and to set some defaults differently from par.

Value

a named list containing the old values of the parameters, as for par.

Examples

mframe(2,3)
mframe(mft=15)  ## will split the plotting area into >= 15 panels,
mframe()  ## reset to 1 panel
