How does it not work?  The following produces a graph that looks like
your drawing.
 
 
> layout( rbind(1,2,c(3,4)), heights = c(2,.5,.5) )
> plot(1:10)
> library(gplots)
> textplot('Descrip. A', cex=1)
> textplot('Descrip. B', cex=1, col='red')
> textplot('Descrip. C', cex=1, col='red')

different lines)
	
	
	Thank you very much, Grew. It help me a lot, but I still have a
doubt. How can I reduce the height between layout.
	I try something as:
	layout( rbind( 1,2,c(3,4)), height=c( 2, 0.5, 0.5)), but I don't
achieve reduce it. For example, I need a something as: 
	
	*-------------------------------------------------
	|                                                |
	|        Graph, height from *=2       |
	|                                                | 
	-------------------------------------------------
	-------------------------------------------------- 
	     desrip. A, height from *=2+0.5
	------------------------ -------------------------
	descrip.B                descrip.C
	height from *=          height from *=
	2+0.5+0.5                2+0.5+0.5   
	
	Paint red color is that I want to draw under of my graph. 
	
	Thanks.

		If your descriptions are just 1 line each then you can
give yourself
		extra room at the bottom with par(mar=c(...
		Then use the mtext function to add the descriptions.  If
the
		descriptions are more detailed then you can try
something like: 
		
		> library(gplots)
		> layout( rbind( 1,2,c(3,4) ) )
		> barplot(1:10)
		> textplot('this is the first description', cex=1)
		> textplot('this is the second',cex=1)
		> textplot('and the third',cex=1) 
		
		But play with the 'heights' argument to layout to get
the heights how
		you want them to be.
		
		Hope this helps,
