I am working with lattice graphics for the first time and I am confused by some
aspects of controlling these graphics. The most pressing issue is the
following:
I can print the graphics without problems with the command:
print(MYFUNCTION(SOMEOBJECT)
However, I would like to add margin text (this terminology might not apply in
this setting). I am able to do so with the following command:
print(MYFUNCTION(SOMEOBJECT, page=function(page) grid.text("SOMETEXT",
x=0.5, y=0.01)))
Two issues:
1. The added text overlaps text in SOMEOBJECT. How do I reserve space at the
margins of the page in which I can print the added text? (the equivalent of
par(mar=c(1,1,1,1)))
2. I was able to construct the command with some assistance from a colleague.
But, I remain at a loss to understand the syntax:
page=function(page),
i.e., page is a function of itself?
Any help in interpreting the function would be appreciated.
