R help - Jun 2008 - Lattice: Superpose bwplot on dotplot [Newbie Question]

Hello everyone

I have dataset containing a monetary value (ABS) and two factors (Fct,
Group).  I am able to create useful using:

bwplot(ABS~Group|Fct)
and
dotplot(ABS~Group|Fct)

Question: What do I have to do to overlay the dotplot with the bwplot (same
data set)? 

I've found a couple of posts that hinted at the possibility of doing that,
and checked the panel.superpose() help, but the info was too complex for my
newbie brain.

Thanks for your help!
LY

Try this:

bwplot(ABS~Group|Fct, panel=function(...) {panel.bwplot(...);  
panel.dotplot(...)} )

There are probably others, perhaps better, ways.
