[R] Lattice package par.settings/trellis.par.settings questions

I am also trying to learn about lattice plots.

To get a succinct listing of the names of the lists of default parameter
settings, try:
  names(trellis.par.get())

To get a succinct listing of all the default parameter settings, try:
  str(trellis.par.get())

HTH,

Maurice Haynes

The parameter names are axis.text$font and axis.text$cex .
Try issuing the command:
  trellis.par.get()
to get a complete list.

Here is an example:

histogram(1:10, par.settings = list(axis.text = list(font = 2, cex =
0.5)))
