The zoomplot function in the TeachingDemos package can be used for this (it actually redoes the entire plot, but with new limits). This will generally work for a quick exploration, but for quality plots it is suggested to create the 1st plot with the correct range to begin with. -- Gregory

[R] Change the limits of a plot a posteriori

2011-12-01 Thread jcano
Hi all How can I change the limits (xlim or ylim) in a plot that has been already created? For example, consider this naive example curve(dbeta(x,2,4)) curve(dbeta(x,8,13),add=T,col=2) When adding the second curve, it goes off the original limits computed by R for the first graph, which are
