R help - Mar 2010 - One main title and One legend for multiple lattice plots

Hi All,

Can anyone please help me with getting a "single title" and
"legend" for
both the plots in the following R code. I'll eventually be using .wmf file.

# R code:
library(lattice)
p1 <- xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, groups = rowpos,
       type = "a", main="Same title / legend",
       auto.key = list(space = "right", points = FALSE, lines = TRUE))
p2 <- xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, groups = rowpos,
       type = "a", main="Same title / legend",
       auto.key = list(space = "right", points = FALSE, lines = TRUE))

win.metafile("Rplot%02d.wmf", width=12, height=8)
print(p1, split=c(1,1,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p2, split=c(1,2,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p1, split=c(2,1,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p2, split=c(2,2,2,2))
dev.off()

Thanks in advance,
Kim

This is either incredibly simple or you have not explained what you  
reall want. Not being on windos I would not be making a win-metafile  
but this pdf appears to be doing what you ask:

  ttl <- "Some random text"
p1 <- xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, groups = rowpos,
       type = "a", main=ttl,
       auto.key = list(space = "right", points = FALSE, lines = TRUE))
p2 <- xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, groups = rowpos,
       type = "a", main=ttl,
       auto.key = list(space = "right", points = FALSE, lines = TRUE))

pdf("Rplot%02d.pdf", width=12, height=8)
print(p1, split=c(1,1,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p2, split=c(1,2,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p1, split=c(2,1,2,2), more=TRUE)
print(p2, split=c(2,2,2,2))
dev.off()
