These functions create and draw an x-axis.
grid.xaxis(at = NULL, label = TRUE, main = TRUE,
edits = NULL, name = NULL,
gp = gpar(), draw = TRUE, vp = NULL)
xaxisGrob(at = NULL, label = TRUE, main = TRUE,
edits = NULL, name = NULL,
gp = gpar(), vp = NULL)
at |
A numeric vector of x-value locations for the tick marks. |
label |
A logical value indicating whether to draw the labels
on the tick marks, or an expression or character vector which
specify the labels to use. If not logical, must be the same

A character identifier. |

An object of class |

A logical value indicating whether graphics output should be produced. |

Both functions create an xaxis grob (a graphical object describing an
xaxis), but only grid.xaxis
draws the xaxis (and then only if draw is TRUE).
An xaxis grob. grid.xaxis returns the value invisibly.
If the at slot of an xaxis grob is not NULL then
the xaxis will have the following children:
representing the line at the base of the tick marks.
representing the tick marks.
representing the tick labels.
If the at slot is NULL then there are no children
and ticks are drawn based on the current viewport scale.
