Perfect, that piece of code did exactly what I wanted. However, I stumpled
upon a new problem, now my data is plotted on a totally wrong scale. The
y-values are all between 160k and 500k, BUT now with that option I find that
the plots are between 0 and 50 (?!?). What did I do wrong?
This plots the data OK, even thoug it should be between 160k and 500k on
the y-scale:
xyplot(data1[,2]+data1[,3]~data1[,1], data = data1,
type = "l",
xlab = "x",
ylab = "y",
auto.key = list(space="top", lines = T, points = F, text=c("text1",
text2")),
par.settings = simpleTheme(lty = c(1,2)),
scales=list(
x=list(alternating=FALSE,tick.number = 11),
y=list(limits=c(0,50))
)
)
If I remove the " y=list(limits=c(0,50))" the dat is plotted as it should.
You probably want something like
y = list(at = seq(100, 200, 25), limits = c(100, 200))
Try this:
x <- 1:20
y1 <- rnorm(20)*1e3
y2 <- rnorm(20)*1e3
xyplot(y1 + y2 ~ x, type='l',
scales = list(y = list(
at = seq(-300,400,100),
limits = c(-500,500)))
)
# or, you could use the ylim argument instead of 'limits=':
xyplot(y1 + y2 ~ x, type='l', ylim = c(-500, 500),
scales = list(y = list(
at = seq(-300,400,100)))
)

Have a look at the 'scales' argument. For example:
# default plot
xyplot(Sepal.Length ~ Petal.Length | Species, data = iris)
# modified plot
xyplot(Sepal.Length ~ Petal.Length | Species, data = iris,
scales=list(y=list(at=c(-5,0,5,10), limits=c(-5,10))))

Hi,
I'm terribly sorry but it seems it cannot figure this one out by
myself so, please, if somebody could help I would be very grateful.
So, when I plot with xyplot() I get an y-axis that is very ugly...
starting from a random number and having so many ticks that it becomes
unreadable.
How do I tell xyplot how to draw the axis? E.g., start from 100, end
at 200 with 25 units between ticks/labels?
Can somebody give me an example?
Thanks!
