Looks reasonable to me. As you have the data and we do not, only you can figure out why this did not lead to "success". > 2) I want to specify axis breaks in the the y-axis range for each > panel.

As you have a one-column layout, you should be able to do this with a vector ylab, e.g. ylab = c("lab1", "lab2", ..., "lab6"). -Deepayan ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
