Hi John, Thanks for your email. Your way works good. However, I was wondering
if you can help with a smoothed scatter plot that has shadows with different
darker blue color representing higher density of points. Zhengyu

Hi,
Do you mean something like this?
=============================================
scatter.smooth(x,y)scatter.smooth(x,y)
=============================================
It looks like invoking that dcols <- densCols(x,y) is callling in some package
that is masking the basic::smoothScatter() and applying some other version of
smoothScatter, but I am not expert enough to be sure.
Another way to get the same result as mine with smoothScatter is to use the
ggplot2 package. it looks a bit more complicated but it is very good and in
some ways easier to see exactly what is happening.
To try it you would need to install the ggplot2 package
(install.packages("ggplot2") then with your original x and y data frames
===============================================
library(ggplot2)
xy <- cbind(x, y)
names(xy) <- c("xx", "yy")
p <- ggplot(xy , aes(xx, yy )) + geom_point( ) +
geom_smooth( method="loess", se =FALSE)
p
================================================
Thanks for the data set. However it really is easier to use dput()
To use dput() simply issue the command dput(myfile) where myfile is the file
you are working with. It will give you something like this:
======================================================
1> dput(x)
structure(c(0.4543462924, 0.2671718761, 0.1641577016, 1.1593356462,

=======================================================
That is your x in dput() form. You just copy it from the R terminal and paste
it into your email message. It is handy if you add the x <- and y <- to
the output.
Your method works just fine but it's a bit more cumbersome with a lot of data.
Also, please reply to the R-help list as well. It is a source of much more
expertise than me and it also can reply when a single person is unavailable.
I hope this helps

Hi John,
Thanks for your reply. But I cannot figure out how to use dput(). I included
data and code below. Is that possible to make a plot similar to attached
smoothing effect.
