Changing box plot font sizes for axes and labels in DiffBind

I have been trying to change font sizes for my box plots in DiffBind:

dba.plotBox(x, th = 0.05, pars = list(cex.axis=1.5, cex.main=2, cex.lab=1.5))

I have also tried the following variation:

dba.plotBox(x, th = 0.05, cex.axis=1.5, cex.main=2, cex.lab=1.5)

I assumed that these arguments would be passed to boxplot() but that does not seem to be working; boxplots with the default font sizes are being plotted regardless of the cex.axis argument. To try and diagnose the problem, I have gone from cex.axis=0.1 all the way to cex.axis=100 and it still returns the same plot. Is there a formal way to specify arguments for altering font sizes and maybe label and plot titles in dba.plotBox()? I would prefer to be able to do this in Diffbind without having to re-draw the plot directly with boxplot().

Thanks!

I looked at the internal code and this does appear to be a bug.  The documentation advertises that the "..." can be additional arguments to the boxplot function but the code does not reflect this.  I have reached out to the maintainer to report this.
