Remove plot axis values
Remove numbering on x-axis or y-axis:
plot(1:10, xaxt='n')plot(1:10, yaxt='n')
If you want to remove the labels as well:
plot(1:10, xaxt='n', ann=FALSE)plot(1:10, yaxt='n', ann=FALSE)
Using base graphics, the standard way to do this is to use axes=FALSE, then create your own axes using Axis (or axis). For example,
x <- 1:20y <- runif(20)plot(x, y, axes=FALSE, frame.plot=TRUE)Axis(side=1, labels=FALSE)Axis(side=2, labels=FALSE)
The lattice equivalent is
library(lattice)xyplot(y ~ x, scales=list(alternating=0))
@Richie Cotton has a pretty good answer above. I can only add that this page provides some examples. Try the following:
x <- 1:20y <- runif(20)plot(x,y,xaxt = "n")axis(side = 1, at = x, labels = FALSE, tck = -0.01)
