text_id: Add labels to a plot.

In sintro: Introduction to R: sintro

Description

Adds label to points in a a plot, unsing an index.

Usage

text_id(x, y, ind, labels.id = rownames(x), adj.x = TRUE, 
cex.id = 0.75, label.pos = c(4, 2), ...)

Arguments

x, y	numeric vectors of coordinates where the text labels should be written.
ind	vector of the indices of data points to be marked with a label.
labels.id	vector of the identtification strings of data points to be marked with a label.
adj.x	used to calculate pos.
cex.id	numeric character expansion factor; passed to text.
label.pos	used to calculate pos.
...	further graphical parameters (from par), such as srt, family and xpd.
