Bert, you did judge all right, indeed, I do not have a clue about how lattice/trellis graphics works. With regards to "Feel free to demonstrate publicly that **I** don't have a clue if I have misunderstood or misjudged", thank you, but I will pass on that... I do not feel it is important for me to publicly demonstrate the fact that someone does not know as much about the area of **my** primary interest as **I** do, instead, I would rather teach them... There are others that do a great job at this kind of "public demonstration":-).
by overlaying this is what I meant: library(lattice) y <-c(1:58) x <-runif(58,5,10) z <-runif(58,8,12) dataset <-data.frame(y,x,z) dotplot(y ~ c(x,z), data = dataset,col=c("blue","red")) thanks for the help, Cheers, Andras --- On Fri, 6/21/13, Bert Gunter <gunter.ber...@gene.com> wrote: > From: Bert Gunter <gunter.ber...@gene.com> > Subject: Re: [R] overlay 2 dot plots > To: "Andras Farkas" <motyoc...@yahoo.com> > Cc: r-help@r-project.org > Date: Friday, June 21, 2013, 4:37 PM > dotplot is a lattice function.
