I've been having a heck of a time plotting vertical lines in a lattice plot and 
can't seem to get any traction on how to accomplish this seemingly simple task. 

I have a lattice plot:


p <- xyplot( nassets ~ backtestdate | as.factor( port.label ) + as.factor( 
target.return.label ),
            groups=daysback,
            data=univ,
            type="l",
            ylab="Number of Assets",
            xlab="Time",
            col=c("red","green","blue"),
            lty=c(1,1,1),
            index.cond=list(c(2,1),c(2,1)),
            scales = list(x = list(alternating = 3), y = list(alternating = 3)  
),
            layout=c(2,2),
            main=sprintf( "Number of Assets in Portfolio" ),

            panel = function(x, y,...) {
              ## put the months as vertical lines          
   
              panel.grid(h=-1, v=0) ## lay down horizontal lines 
              panel.xyplot(x, y, ...)

              ## these don't work
              ## panel.abline(h=NULL, v=c(1,10,20,30,40,50,60), 
reference=FALSE,... )
              ## panel.abline(h=NULL, v=c(1,10,20,30,40,50,60), 
reference=TRUE,... )

              ## these don't work
              ## panel.abline(h=NULL, 
v=c("2010-07-02","2010-08-02","2010-09-01","2010-10-01"), reference=FALSE, ... )
              ## panel.abline(h=NULL, 
v=c("2010-07-02","2010-08-02","2010-09-01","2010-10-01"), reference=TRUE, ... )
                            
              ## these don't work either.. grrrr...
              ##panel.grid(h=-1, 
v=c("2010-07-02","2010-08-02","2010-09-01","2010-10-01"), reference=TRUE )
              ##panel.abline(h=NULL, v=c(1,21,43,64), reference=FALSE )
              ##panel.abline(h=NULL, 
v=c("2010-07-02","2010-08-02","2010-09-01","2010-10-01"), reference=TRUE,... )
            },
                       
            key=list(space="bottom",
              title="Days Included in Calculation",
              text=list(c("50","100","200")),
              lines=c(1,1,1),
              lty=c(1,1,1),
              col=c("red","green","blue"),
              columns=3)

            )

print( p )


And I would like to add dotted lines on the months/years like the 
fPortfolioBacktest package does.

I think my issue with the xyplot version. 

Solutions?

Respectfully,
Jeff.
