Create a wrapper to xyplot that has the arguments preset to what you
want. Using the built in BOD data frame:
library(lattice)
f <- function() {
xyplot. <- function(..., col = 1) xyplot(..., col = col)
xyplot.(demand ~ Time, BOD)
}
b <- f()
b
The above works in this example but depending on the specifics of the
actual application you may need this instead:
xyplot. <- function(..., col = 1) eval.parent(substitute(xyplot(...,
col = col))
