This is a mailing list, not a forum and MY mail client doesn't keep track of YOUR postings. BTW, you are the one seeking our help, so even if you think it was a picky request, a proper response would be to simply post your function+data set. Not send us looking for some "original post". > I thought I also made it clear that I understood that hist and histogram are > not the same. No you didn't.

LatticeExtra functions expect any lattice plots, including local (user defined) panel/plot functions, if only you would have posted plot.spdf maybe you would have gotten a solution by now... If plot.spdf is actually a base graphics plotter and you just stumbled upon DoubleYscale somehow, ?par ?axis hist(...,add=T) are all available to you.
