I am trying to use the angle option in polygon to create polygons filled with horizontal and vertical lines. The polygons I am crating are irregular and it the angle function appears to set the angle of the shading perpendicular to the polygon sides rather than perpendicular to the axes. Is there any way to set the angle relative to the axes rather than relative to the polygon sides?

I've found RColorBrewer useful for its qualitative palettes, but wished that it could generate more than 12 qualitative palettes (e.g. with Set3). Any suggestions for alternative color palette generators that can handle e.g. 18 distinctive colors? (I'm aware of using rainbow(), but this doesn't generate enough distinct colors when the number of palettes is large). Thanks, Andrew
