Hi Luigi Strips take up space so if you are willing to not have strip and put the strip values within the plot area then
xyplot(y ~ x|cond.factor, data = ..., as.table = T, groups = ..., layout = ..., drop.unused = T, par.settings = list(axis.text = list(cex = 0.6), par.xlab.text = list(cex = 0.75), par.ylab.text = list(cex = 0.75) superpose.symbol = list(pch = ".", cex = 2) ), strip = FALSE, scales = list(x = list(alternating = 2), y = list(alternating = FALSE) ), type = "p", panel = function(x,y, subscripts, groups,...){ panel.superpose(x,y,subscripts,groups,..., col = ...) panel.text(x,y,...,cex = 0.6) } ) if the text values are a vector stext = ... xyplot(y ~ x|cond.factor, data = ..., as.table = T, groups = ..., layout = ..., drop.unused = T, par.settings = list(axis.text = list(cex = 0.6), par.xlab.text = list(cex = 0.75), par.ylab.text = list(cex = 0.75) superpose.symbol = list(pch = ".", cex = 2) ), strip = FALSE, scales = list(x = list(alternating = 2), y = list(alternating = FALSE) ), type = "p", panel = function(x,y, subscripts, groups,...){ pnl = panel.number() panel.superpose(x,y,subscripts,groups,..., col = ...) panel.text(x,y,stext[pnl],cex = 0.6) } ) you could also you group.number instead of pnl if it is needed elsewhere. text position could be done in a similar fashion if needed to be in different places for some panels. If you require the strip then an additional par.settings is layout.heights = list(strip = 0.8) or even untested in this situation strip = FALSE strip.left = TRUE Regards Duncan Duncan Mackay Department of Agronomy and Soil Science University of New England Armidale NSW 2351 Email: home: mac...@northnet.com.au -----Original Message----- From: R-help [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Luigi Marongiu Sent: Sunday, 19 April 2015 19:28 To: r-help Subject: [R] high density plots using lattice dotplot() Dear all, I am trying to plot the results of a PCR experiments that involves 384 individual plots. Admittedly the space for the plots will be tiny, but I just nedd some icon to have a feeling of the layout of the experiment and a quick comparison of the plots. I believe that lattice would be the right tool, but when I tried to implement i got an error. Specifically the output would be a A4 pdf, so with about 600 cm2 of drawing space, which gives about 1.5 cm2 for each plot; removing the labels that might just work. So I have the y values = 'fluorescence', x 'values' = cycles and 384 'well' data. I implemented to begin with: xyplot(fluorescence ~ cycles | well, ylab="Fluorescence", xlab="Cycles", main=list(draw = FALSE), scales = list( x = list(draw = FALSE), y = list(draw = FALSE), relation="same", alternating=TRUE), layout = c(24,16), par.settings = list(strip.background=list(col="white")), pch = "." ) but the the individual graphs show only the writing "data" instead of the actual plots. How can I overcome this error?
