Thanks! I'd seen this sort of trick mentioned in places, but didn't twig what it did. This is exactly what I was looking for. James On 19/4/11 7:04 AM, Greg Snow wrote: tmp1- par('usr') -- James D Annan jdan...@jamstec.go.jp Tel: +81-45-778-5618 (Fax 5707) Senior Scientist, Research

[R] multiple lines on multiple plots

2011-04-12 Thread James Annan
I'm sure this must be trivial, but I'm a novice with R and can't work out how to handle the axes when I am constructing multiple plots on a page and try to return to a previous one to put multiple data sets it. A simple example: --- x- 1:10 y- (1:100)*3 par(mfcol=c(2,1)) plot(x) plot(y)

Instead of trying to go back to a previous plot, gather up all the data for the plots and generate each one with the appropriate data. This is much easier than trying to keep track of what the dimensions are. Also if the data you want to add is outside the plot, then you have issues with

Thanks for all the replies. Yes, I agree that calculating all the data first is a simple solution which also has the benefit of making the axis choice easier to get right, but on the downside it requires storing an order of magnitude more output than my original sequential approach would have

Hi, ggplot2 automatically adjusts its axes when new data are added to plots; however you wouldn't get an automatic legend if you constructed plots that way. HTH, baptiste On 13 April 2011 17:06, James Annan jdan...@jamstec.go.jp wrote: Thanks for all the replies. Yes, I agree that calculating
