Hello: I've come to a dead-end in my search for a solution to a graphing problem that I am encountering. I have used xyplot (from the lattice package) successfully to plot 36 time-series plots (lines) of under-5 mortality for a set of countries in Sub-Sarahan Africa. What I would now like to do is to add vertical bands (rectangles) that correspond to time-periods during which each of the 36 countries was at war, which would be different for each of the 36 panels. The effect I'd like to produce is similar that found here: http://thinkorthwim.com/20...
