I'm trying to create an xyplot with a "groups" argument where the y-variable
is the cumsum of the values stored in the input data frame. I almost have
it, but I can't get it to automatically adjust the y-axis scale. How do I
get the y-axis to automatically scale as it would have if the cumsum values
had been stored in the data frame?

Here is the code I have so far:

require(lattice)



dates <- seq(as.Date("2011-01-01"), as.Date("2011-04-30"), "days")
g <- 1:3


dat <- data.frame(date = rep(dates, length(g)),
                  group = rep(g, each = length(dates)),
                  value = rnorm(length(dates)*length(g)) + 0.05)


xyplot(value ~ date, data = dat, group = group, type = 'l', grid = TRUE,
       panel = panel.superpose,
       panel.groups = function(x, y, ...) { panel.xyplot(x, cumsum(y), ...)
})


I want the result to look the same as if I had done

dat$cumvalue <- with(dat, unsplit(lapply(split(value, group), cumsum),
group))
xyplot(cumvalue ~ date, data = dat, group = group, type = 'l', grid = TRUE)

Thanks for your help.
