I think it's better if the lines are above the grid: ## Data M <- structure(list(date = structure(c(13634, 13665, 13695, 13726, 13757, 13787, 13818, 13848, 13879, 13910, 13939, 13970, 14000, 14031, 14061, 14092, 14123, 14153, 14184, 14214, 14245, 14276, 14304, 14335), class = "Date"), cospi = c(1987.31, 2033.37, 2140.13, 2120.66, 2427.09, 2917.7, 2915.28, 3262.06, 2616.26, 2617.75, 2277.69, 2538.13, 2374.09, 1911.22, 2063.73, 2081.28, 1813.58, 1304.96, 1219.73, 1361.74, 1299.2, 1242.74, 1339.18, 1557.29), cospi.PE = c(19.2, 19.69, 20.13, 24.08, 27.61, 30.9, 30.69, 34.92, 26.95, 27.63, 23.86, 26.14, 23.72, 19.5, 23.43, 23.73, 20.69, 16.4, 16.12, 18.04, 18.46, 18.86, 20.24, 23.53)), .Names = c("date", "cospi", "cospi.PE"), row.names = 209:232, class = "data.frame") ## Set up par's to make 2 panel chart par(bty="l") par(ps=10) par(mfrow=c(2,1)) # try to get two plots, one above the other par(mar=c(0,4,0,1)) ## Set par(mar) to eliminate X axis gap par(oma=c(2,2,2,2)) ## Make Plot 1 plot(M$date, M$cospi, type="l", log="y", xaxs="i", yaxs="i", axes=F, lwd=0, ylab="Cospi level") grid(col = "lightgrey", lty=1) lines(M$date, M$cospi, type="l", lwd=2) axis(1, col="grey", at=NULL, labels=FALSE) axis(2, col="black", labels=TRUE) axis(3, col="grey", labels=TRUE) box(col = "grey") ## Adjust par(mar) for 2nd plot par(mar=c(2,4,0,1)) ## Second plot plot(M$date, M$cospi.PE, type="l", col="black", log="y", xaxs="i", yaxs="i", axes=F, lwd=0, ylab="Cospi P/E") grid(col = "lightgrey", lty=1) lines(M$date, M$cospi.PE, col="black", lwd=2) axis(2, col="black", at=NULL, labels=T) ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
