Dear R-Users, I created the xyplot below using 10 groups (9 groups + 'Total' of all groups) with lty=1:10. I need the 'Total' to be a bold solid line (lty=1) where as the 9 groups just need to be distinguishable from each other. As you can probably see, when the group reaches CRA6 the lty starts from 1 again. I have tried to specify ten unique lines using lty= c("10","92","11","12","62","9212","33","19","12529252","7111") however R won't let me use "10" (i.e. solid line) because it contains a zero. I could possibly add the total line in later (using something similar to lines or matlines) and then define the lty as lty=1, but then I have the problem of trying to get the new line into the legend. Does anyone have any ideas of how to combine custom linetypes with preset types? http://www.nabble.com/file/p21593757/CRA.gif -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Defining-Solid-Line-using-Line-Type-Specification-tp21593757p21593757.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[R] Defining Solid Line using Line Type Specification
The dataset for that graphic cannot be that big. Why not use dput() on it and also include the code? -- David Winsemius On Jan 21, 2009, at 9:23 PM, jimdare wrote:> > Dear R-Users, > > I created the xyplot below using 10 groups (9 groups + 'Total' of all > groups) with lty=1:10.
