Thank you very much, Rich, for the fast and very helpful reply! It helped
me to reach my goal.

PS: I extended your solution to a version that allows slightly finer
control over the components of the boxplots, in particular if one wants to
combine it with, e.g., panel.stripplot() or panel.average(). It was also
possible to simplify my call of bwplot() a bit. The code is certainly not
perfect and fully tested, but does work (for me ;-)), and follows as a
little 'thank you':
panel.bwplot.constantColor <- function( ..., col, fill, cex, pch,
dot.pch, umbrella.lty, box.alpha) {

Thank you for the opportunity to illustrate this. I solved this problem
last week and it will be included in the next version of the HH package
(about a month away).

Dear R-list,
I've been trying to produce a sort of an interaction plot wherein colored
stripplots and boxplots are superposed. In particular, I want the colors of
the (transparently) filled boxes to be the same as the colors of the box
borders (rectangle) and their whiskers (umbrella). Below I'm going to create
an artificial data set and provide the code with which I've come up so far,
and which is a fusion and adaptation of a few pieces of code I've found in
the help pages and the mail archives. It does almost what I want, but still
colors the rectangles and the umbrellas in black (of course, because it is
the setting in the example presented below). However, the latter is what I
want to change.
x <- c( rep( 1:4, each = 10), rep( -2, 40))
Data <- data.frame( F1 = gl( 4, 10, length = 80, labels = LETTERS[ 1:4]),
F2 = gl( 2, 40), Y = x + rnorm( length( x)))
mycolors <- c( "red", "blue")
myalpha <- 0.33
bwplot( Y ~ F1, groups = F2, data = Data,
col = mycolors, fill = mycolors, jitter.data = TRUE,
panel = panel.superpose,
panel.groups = function(..., pch, col, alpha){
panel.stripplot(...)
panel.bwplot(..., do.out = FALSE)
},
par.settings = list( box.dot = list( alpha = myalpha),
box.rectangle = list( col = "black",
alpha = myalpha),
box.umbrella = list( col = "black",
alpha = myalpha))
)
If I'd provide mycolors instead of "black" to the col-component of the
(sub-)lists given to par.settings, the coloring of the respective components
of the boxplots would not be what I want. Having studied the code of
panel.superpose() and panel.bwplot() it appears to me that panel.bwplot()
cannot access the settings created by panel.supperpose when it comes to
drawing the rectangle and umbrella of a boxplot. It only accesses box.[dot,
rectangle, umbrella], which does not give what I need.
I may have overlooked the obvious and would be quite grateful if somebody
could give me a hint where to look further. Or is a workaround necessary
(and available)?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best Regards -- Gerrit
