Hello I have been experimenting with xyplot, reading the help and googling but I am still unable to draw an abbreviated key.
I would like to display key for a few particular countries. My dataset looks like this year papers country papers.total 1 1988 403 USA 551 2 1988 31 United Kingdom 551 3 1988 24 Canada 551 4 1988 20 Netherlands 551 5 1988 19 Israel 551 6 1988 16 Germany 551 7 1988 13 France 551 8 1988 10 Italy 551 9 1988 8 Switzerland 551 10 1988 5 Japan 551 11 1988 5 Denmark 551 12 1988 3 Spain 551 13 1988 3 Russia 551 14 1988 2 Sweden 551 15 1988 2 Poland 551 16 1988 2 Finland 551 17 1988 2 Brasil 551 18 1988 2 Australia 551 19 1988 1 Thailand 551 20 1988 1 Norway 551 21 1988 1 Mexico 551 22 1988 1 Ireland 551 23 1988 1 Greece 551 24 1989 649 USA 926 25 1989 53 United Kingdom 926 26 1989 43 France 926 27 1989 37 Canada 926 28 1989 36 Germany 926 29 1989 28 Netherlands 926 30 1989 19 Sweden 926 [...] I use xyplot to show how many papers > xyplot(papers~year,groups=country,type='l',auto.key=T) produces an extremely long key > xyplot(papers~year,groups=country,type='l',key=simpleKey(levels(as.factor(country))[1:5])) shows *alphabetically* first five countries in the key > xyplot(papers~year,groups=country,type='l',key=simpleKey(c('USA','Germany'))) displays correct countries but the colors obviously do not match. Could you please point me in the right direction?
