For 1 you can just reverse one of the y ranges, e.g.: updateusr(1:2, range(0,y1), 1:2, rev(range(y2)) )
on my computer for some reason the axis command needs you to explicitly set the at points, but then it works properly. For 2, are the axes on all the plots the same? If so you can put all the axes in the outer margin and remove the space between the plots (see the pairs2 function in the TeachingDemos packages to see an example). Otherwise you may need to remove some of the labeling from the plots and put it in the caption (publication) instead. For on screen, just remember which plot is which. A more detailed example of what you are trying may help us give better suggestions. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
