I think i have asked this before but can't find the answer in the BioC history. So apologies but how does one add labels to a hist of the AffyBatch intensities. I understand that affy package adds methods for this object but they aren't compatible with those described on the help pages. i.e labels=, doesn't work.

One way to do so is to use the function 'legend()' Example: data(affybatch.example) r <- hist(affybatch.example, col=1:6, lty=1:5) ## check on the plot where you would like to have the legend ## (here 12, 0.4 looks like a good place) legend(10, 0.2, legend=sampleNames(affybatch.example), col=1:6, lty=rep(1:5, length=length(affybatch.example))) ## apparently there is a problem with the parameter lty for ## legend(), which justifies the extra bit for lty above.
