R help - Dec 2006 - Add line to plot. The line falls outside the current plot.

Hi,

I have plotted the graph of x^2 and I would like to add to
it a line that is currently outside of the plot ( the points of the line
fall outside of the plot ). When I use the function 'lines' the graphics
window does not became larger to show this line.

Is there any way I can fix this?

Also, how can I eliminate the axis from the plot?

Thank you.

Use xlim and ylim to your call to plot (see ?plot and ?par).
So, plot(..your.parameters.., xlim=c(minx, maxx), ylim=c(miny,maxy))

Replace minx,maxx,miny,maxy by numbers.
Usually, the function range() comes in very handy here, see ?range

Jonne.

?plot.default  

axes=FALSE

?par
