title and
axes rotate the text given by
main,
sub,
xlab
, and
ylab to be parallel to the axes they are next to.
(Thus they override the current value of the
srt graphical parameter.)
They use the current value of the
adj graphical parameter to determine
where along the axis to place this text: adj=0.5 centers the text at
the center of the axis,
adj=0 left justifies it to the left edge of the axis,
and adj=1 right justifies it to the right edge of the axis.
You can specify the size, type, and color of the text for the main title, subtitle, axis labels, and tick mark labels by using
arguments:
cex.main ,
font.main, and
col.main for the main title,
cex.sub,
font.sub, and
col.sub for the subtitle,
cex.lab,
font.lab, and
col.lab for the axis labels, and
col.axis,
font.axis, and
col.axis for the tick mark labels, respectively.
title and
axes rotate the tick mark labels to be parallel to the
axes if the graphical parameter
las is 0, horizontal
if
las is 1, and perpendicular to the axes if
las is 2.
(Again, this overrides the current value of
srt.)
The tick mark labels are centered at the tick mark if they are parallel
to the axis and right or left justified if they are perpendicular
to the axis and to the left or right of it, respectively.
(This overrides the current value of
adj.)
The
mtext and
text functions give you more flexibility in placing
labels on a plot.
The
axis function gives you more flexibility in placing an axis on a
