hi, is it possible to draw a plot inside another plot f.e in the upper right corner. I do not mean the possbility par(mfrow = c(2,2). Kind Regards Knut
Not in R base graphics, but you can do easily with the grid package.

Hi I remember that I did it also in base graphics but it took me some time to find out how and it was a long time ago so. If I remember it correctly it was some combination of graphic parameters to set user coordinates and do not overwrite the first plot by setting par(new=TRUE) Regards Petr r-help-bounces at r-project.org napsal dne 01.11.2010 12:10:18:> Not in R base graphics, but you can do easily with the grid package. > > Best, > Uwe Ligges > > > On 01.11.2010 11:59, Knut Krueger wrote: > > hi, > > > > is it possible to draw a plot inside another plot f.e in the upperright> > corner.

Here's a quick example I posted on my blog. http://chartsgraphs.wordpress.com/2009/05/06/r-lets-you-put-chart-inside-chart/ link Hope it helps. http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n3022363/chart_inside_chart.png -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Plots-inside-a-Plot-tp3021988p3022363.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Petr is correct,I believe, but see also ?layout for a (newer and) more flexible approach to splitting the screen into a non-matricial arrangement to overlay several plots. ?split.screen can also do this, but is somewhat clumsier to use imo.

here's a second example using basic R graphics. I update this chart daily.

Here's what ?par says about par(fig)
fig
A numerical vector of the form c(x1, x2, y1, y2) which gives the (NDC)
coordinates of the figure region in the display region of the device. If you
set this, unlike S, you start a new plot, so to add to an existing plot use
new=TRUE as well.
