[R] lattice splom: how to adjust space between tick marks and tick labels?

[Marius Hofert]

Dear David,

thank you for your answer.
As I wrote, I am looking for an option to control the *space* between the tick marks and the corresponding labels. I am happy with the *number* of tick marks and their default values. As far as I know, pscales can't control the space, so it is *not* what I am looking for.

Cheers,

Marius
