i.e. without that being inside curve produces a vector of length 375.

So now it seems that curve() is really skipping some lka-/x-values.

How could curve() know what the length of lka is? You're telling it to set x to a sequence of values of length 101 (the default) from min(lka) to max(lka). You never tell it to set x to lka.

curve() is designed to plot expressions or functions, not vectors. If you actually want to plot line segments using your original data, use lines(). (You'll likely need to sort your x values into increasing order if you do that, or you'll get a pretty ugly plot.)

I’m trying to plot regression lines using curve()

The way I do it is:

bs <- coef(fit2)

and then for example:

curve(bs["(Intercept)"]+bs["mies"]*0+bs["kouluB"]+bs["lka"]*x+bs["kouluB:clka"]*clka,
 from=min(lka), to=max(lka), add=TRUE, col='red')

This above code runs into error:

Error in curve(bs["(Intercept)"] + bs["mies"] * 0 + bs["kouluB"] + bs["lka"] *  
:
 'expr' did not evaluate to an object of length 'n'
In addition: Warning message:
In bs["(Intercept)"] + bs["mies"] * 0 + bs["kouluB"] + bs["lka"] *  :
 longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length

Which I’ve investigated might be related to the lengths of the different 
objects being multiplied or summed.
Taking length(g$x) or length(g$y) of

g <- curve(bs["(Intercept)"]+bs["mies"]*0+bs["kouluB"]+bs["lka"]*x, 
from=min(lka), to=max(lka), add=TRUE, col='red')

returns 101.

However length(lka) is 375. But perhaps these being different is not the 
problem?

I however do see that the whole range of lka is not plotted, for some reason. 
So how can I be sure
that it passes through all x-values in lka? And i.e. that the lengths of 
objects inside curve() are correct?

What can I do?
