Hi all: I've got it... it appears that total.density was also defined in two separate data frames (se.predict.data and dc.predict.data) with levels order 16, 32, 8. Using relevel(), I moved 8 to the first position and it's solved the plotting problem.
Ista's 'minimal' reproducible code request prompted me to discover my error; thanks all. - Justin Montemarano Graduate Student Kent State University - Biological Sciences http://www.montegraphia.com On Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 12:42 PM, R.
