Hi, Peter,
Thanks. This is exactly what I am looking for! Just a little concern.
Since there are so many parameters in the trellis.par, how do we even
know there is one that can do what we want? The documentation does not
really have that much details.
Well, it can seem a bit daunting, but there really aren't all that
many parameters and they're bunched in a logical way. I recall that,
way back in the early days of R (for me), when I was still trying
to convince colleagues that R was the real thing (thank you Ross and
Robert and, of course, those indefatigable R-core folks), I spent a
couple of weeks in Newfoundland, Canada's most beautiful province, and
while others were photographing icebergs, I was desperately trying to
complete a consulting project that required a bit of fiddling with
lattice parameters to produce the kind of plots that were wanted for
the final report. It wasn't hard to figure out that lattice.heights
was a list of height parameters and that things like xlab.key.padding
affected the spacing between the xlab and the key. That's the beauty
of R's interactive nature - it's easy to experiment.

Dear list,
As the title indicates if I draw the legend outside of the
plot, how
do I
adjust the distance between the legend and the plot? The default
setting is
too close. Thanks.
From the help page:
"just
A character or numeric vector of length one or two giving horizontal
and vertical justification for the placement of the legend. See
grid.layout for more precise details."
I would have a look at the layout.heights trellis parameters and set
these to suit - in this case probably just the xlab.key.padding value.
Look at the list of parameters with
trellis.par.get("layout.__heights")
# (or wrap this in str() for a briefer output).
Then include a par.settings argument in the xyplot call:
xyplot( 1 ~ 1,
par.settings = list( layout.heights = list(
xlab.key.padding = 5 )),
key = list( .... etc

Here is the sample code I have
==============================__============================
xyplot
(1~1,key=list(space='bottom',__columns=2,text=list(c('a','b',__'c','d')),
lines
=list(lwd=2,pch=c(1,1,2,2),__cex=1.2,col=c(1,2,3,4),type=c(__'p','l')))
)
