R help - Dec 2005 - trellis: style of axis labels

Hello,

is it possible to get xyplot of package lattice to acknowledge par(las=2)? In my
trellis plot the x-axis lables are overlapping (they're factors with rather
long level names), and I'd like to have them vertical. The trellis plot
doesn't seem to read the 'par' settings, and trellist.par.set
neither :-(

	thanks for your help,
	+kind regards,

	Arne

Yes, use the scales argument:

xyplot(..., scales = list(x = list(rot = 90)))

Most 'par' options will not work with lattice.
