Remove plot axis values

Question

I was just wondering if there is a way to get rid of axis values  either the x-axis or y-axis respectively  in an r-plot graph   I know that axes   false will get rid of the entire axis  but I would only like to get rid of the numbering

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  lt - 1 20 y  lt - 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

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

Richie Cotton has a pretty good answer above   I can only add that this page provides some examples   Try the following   x  lt - 1 20 y  lt - runif 20  plot x y xaxt    n   axis side   1  at   x  labels   FALSE  tck   -0 01

Change the axis colour to match the background and if you are modifying the background dynamically you will need to update the axis colour simultaneously    The shared picture shows the graph plot example using mock data         Main Plotting Function     plotXY  lt - function time  value            Plot Style Settings              default bg is white  set it the same as the axis-colour      background  lt -  white           default col axis is black  set it the same as the background to match     axis colour  lt -  white       plot title  lt -  Graph it       xlabel  lt -  Time      ylabel  lt -  Value      label colour  lt -  black      label scale  lt - 2     axis scale  lt - 2     symbol scale  lt - 2     title scale  lt - 2     subtitle scale  lt - 2       point style 16 is a black dot     point  lt - 16        p - points  l - line  b - both     plot type  lt -  b       plot time  value  main plot title  cex symbol scale  cex lab label scale  cex axis axis scale  cex main title scale  cex sub subtitle scale  xlab xlabel  ylab ylabel  col lab label colour  col axis axis colour  bg background  pch point  type plot type     plotXY time  value

you can also put labels inside plot   plot spline sub day  sub counts   type   l   labels   FALSE    you ll get a warning  i think this is because labels is actually a parameter that s being passed down to a subroutine that plot runs  axes    the warning will pop up because it wasn t directly a parameter of the plot function
