Soil Profile Group Labels


Description

Labels groups of soil profiles within soil profile sketches.

See examples below for ideas.

Usage

profileGroupLabels(
  x0,
  x1,
  labels,
  y0 = 100,
  y1 = 98,
  label.offset = 2,
  label.cex = 0.75
)

Arguments

x0

integer indices to the first profile within each group

x1

integer indices to the last profile within each group

labels

vector of group labels

y0

baseline depth used for group brackets

y1

depth used for start and end markers for group brackets (see examples)

label.offset

vertical offset of group labels from baseline

label.cex

label size

Note

This function is typically called by some other convenience function such as plotMultipleSPC.
