Hi everyone,
The code below will only draw grid lines in the *first* plot because
'panel.first' has already been evaluated (and hence it's NULL) after
the first plot is drawn:
devAskNewPage(TRUE)
f = function(...) {
for (i in 1:5) plot(rnorm(10), ...)
}
f(panel.first = grid())
For i in 2:5, panel.first = NULL will not produce the grid. I didn't
understand it until I saw Prof Ripley's reply in the trashcan of the
bug list 9 years ago
(http://bugs.r-project.org/cgi-bin/R/trashcan?id=458;expression=panel.first;user=guest).
I wonder in my example, how can I get the grid drawn in each plot with
"panel.first" in "..."? Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Yihui
