[R] How to display y-axis labels in Multcomp plot

[Kingsford Jones]

See ?par and note the 'mar' parameter

Here's an example:


library(multcomp)
labs <- c('short', 'medium', 'looooooooong')
treatment <- gl(3, 10, labels = labs)
response <- rnorm(30, mean=as.numeric(treatment))
mult <- glht(lm(response ~ treatment),
        linfct=mcp(treatment='Means'))
par(mar=c(4,8,4,2))
plot(confint(mult))

hth,
