Shifting x-axis to the right (metafor, R)
<p>I am working on a forest plot in R using the metafor package and am trying to shift the whole x-axis (alim) to the right to accommodate ilab columns. </p>

<p>Am still not allowed to post images so my current plot now appears as something like this where the text and x-axis overlaps:</p>

<pre><code>|ilab text|                                |mean [ci.lb, ci.ub]|
    |---measure values + ci---|
</code></pre>

<p>And I want something like this</p>

<pre><code>|ilab text|                                |mean [ci.lb, ci.ub]|
             |---measure values + ci---|
</code></pre>

<p>Although the forestplot package seemed to allow this with its graph.pos function, I couldn't seem to find a similar function in metafor. </p>

<p>I have two questions:</p>

<p>1) Is the x-axis position set on default in metafor?</p>

<p>2) Can this default be overwritten, and if so, how?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
