Hi Jackson, >From your description, I think you are trying to illustrate the deviation of Capa.diss, so I will offer an entirely different method. If you do want the primary line on the left of the plot with a big space on the right, presumably to add more stuff there, try this:
plot(Capa.diss.mean + 10 * (Capa.diss-Capa.diss.mean),Capa.diss.age, type="l",col="gray",xlim=c(-1,30),xlab="Capa.diss") lines(Capa.diss,Capa.diss.age) This exaggerates the deviation of Capa.diss from its mean by a factor of 10 in the first gray line, then plots the "real" deviations over it as a black line. Another possibility is that you want to decompose Capa.diss into low and high frequency deviations (i.e. long term trend and transient variation). That would involve a similar plotting technique.
