Need to read a bit further down below the 'mfrow' and 'mfcol' arguments in par, specifically until you get to 'mfg': library(Hmisc) par(mfrow=c(3,1) ) plot(1:10, 1:10, main = "Plot 1") subplot(plot(10,10, xlab="", ylab=""), x=2, y=8, size = c(0.5, 0.5) ) par(mfg=c(2,1) ); plot(11:20, 11:20, main = "Plot 2") subplot(plot(10,10, xlab="", ylab=""), x=12, y=18, size = c(0.5, 0.5) ) par(mfg=c(3,1)); plot(21:30, 21:30, main = "Plot 3") subplot(plot(10,10, xlab="", ylab=""), x=22, y=28, size = c(0.5, 0.5) ) I suspect that the subplot manipulations of par settings are the cause of the problem. It is restoring the mfg pointer. -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ 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.
