R help - Sep 2024 - how to specify point symbols in the key on a lattice dotplot

Add:

key = list(points=16:17)

Into the dotplot section possibly without the autokey

dd %>% dotplot( segment ~ transit_time, groups = impact,  data = .,
               pch = 16:17,
               cex = 1.8,
               scales = list(cex = 1.4),
               key = list(points = 16:17) )

produces a graph with no discernible key, but with an asterisk at the
top, above the plotting region.

Same result from 

dd %>% dotplot( segment ~ transit_time, groups = impact,  data = .,
               pch = 16:17,
               cex = 1.8,
               scales = list(cex = 1.4),
               key = list(points = 16:17),
               auto.key = TRUE )




dd %>% dotplot( segment ~ transit_time, groups = impact,  data = .,
               scales = list(cex = 1.4),
               par.settings = simpleTheme(pch = 16:17, cex = 1.8),
               auto.key = TRUE) 

produces the desired result.

Why does key = list(points = 16:17)  not work?  Below is a MWE:

===============================
library(lattice)
library(dplyr)
dd <- structure(list(impact = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 
2L), levels = c("impaction", "no impaction"), class =
"factor"),
    segment = structure(c(4L, 2L, 1L, 3L, 4L, 2L, 1L, 3L), levels
c("left", "right", "rectosigmoid",
"total"), class = c("ordered",
"factor" )), transit_time = c(70, 10, 20, 32, 42, 10, 12, 18)), class
"data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -8L))

dd %>% dotplot( segment ~ transit_time, groups = impact,  data = .,
               pch = 16:17,
               cex = 1.8,
               scales = list(cex = 1.4),
               key = list(points = 16:17) )

================================

Thanks.
