Re: [R] Darker markers for symbols in lattice
Adding par.settings = list(grid.pars = list(lwd = 3)) to my code which uses simpleKey gives exactly what I want. However, if I use auto.key, I lose all the formatting and get default colors and symbols. I am indebted to Deepayan for once again providing the key (pun intended) to a solution. My figure is a superposed dotplot similar to the barley example. I like to vary the symbols even if I use color as an aid to those with color vision deficiencies and choose my colors with color vision deficiency in mind.

Re: [R] Darker markers for symbols in lattice
Many thanks to Deepayan for providing just what I wanted. I've tried lwd many times and it does not work but lex does the trick. Thanks also to Paul Murrell for his very simple suggestion of using lower case o for an open circle since bold works on letters and to Bert Gunter for suggesting an overplotting technique to try if nothing easier was suggested.
