Thanks everyone for your replies. I didn't know about the ecdfplot function, so I'll start using that instead of Ecdf. Why is Ecdf not a lattice plot? The result certainly looks like other lattice plots, the arguments are similar to other lattice plots. In fact, internally it seems to just call

Well, yes. Terminology-wise, I guess one could say that it's a trellis plot in the Hmisc package. But I'd agree that this is nitpicking. -- Bert On Tue, Jul 31, 2012 at 6:13 AM, Elliot Joel Bernstein elliot.bernst...@fdopartners.com wrote: Thanks everyone for your replies. I didn't know about

I see. I typically use a (one-sided) formula as the first argument to Ecdf, but didn't even think about that distinction in putting together this example. Thanks again for your help. - Elliot On Tue, Jul 31, 2012 at 12:46 PM, Deepayan Sarkar deepayan.sar...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Jul 31,

[R] Thinning Lattice Plot

2012-07-30 Thread Elliot Joel Bernstein
Is there an easy way to thin a lattice plot? I often create plots from large data sets, and use the pdf command to save them to a file, but the resulting files can be huge, because every point in the underlying dataset is rendered in the plot, even though it isn't possible to see that much detail.
