how to fix this R console "Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large"?

Question

I am running model based clustering and I don't know to fix this error.

plot(df_optimal_mc, what = 'uncertainty')
Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large

I already try the graphics.off() or par(mfcol=c(5,3),mai=c(0.5,0.5,0.5,0)) and still nothing.

Answer 1

You could try changing the margins of the plot using the par() function. Try using the following code:

par(mar=c(5,4,4,2) + 0.1)

plot(df_optimal_mc, what = 'uncertainty')

This should help reduce the margin size and allow you to plot the figure.
