I tried to emulate the axis interval calculation behaviour of the traditional graphics system (with par(xaxs="i")) in lattice but couldn't find a flexible solution. Let's say a have a simple xyplot: x <- seq(0, 1, 0.01) xyplot(x^2 ~ x, type="l") I want to restrict the plotting region to the data range _and_ have axis labels over the full data range like this: xyplot(x^2 ~ x, type="l", xlim=0:1, ylim=0:1, scales=list(labels=seq(0, 1, 0.2))) Is there a simple way to achieve this in a more general fashion (e.g. with lattice options) so that the behaviour could be applied to a whole set of plots?
