Mar: Set Plot Margins

Description

Plot margins are normally set by par("mar"). However one is forced to define all margins, even if just one should be altered. This convenience function allows to set one single margin (or several) while leaving the others unchanged.

Usage

Mar(bottom = NULL, left = NULL, top = NULL, right = NULL, outer = FALSE)

Arguments

bottom

the bottom margin, if set to NULL the current value will be maintained.

left

the left margin, if set to NULL the current value will be maintained.

top

the top margin, if set to NULL the current value will be maintained.

right

the right margin, if set to NULL the current value will be maintained.

outer

logical, defining if inner margins (par("mar")) or the outer margins (par("oma")) should be set. Default is FALSE, meaning that the inner margins will be concerned.
