Jim's solution works.
Thank you

I think what you may have done is simply changed x.init= to x=x.init. x.init
may or may not be there when the function is called, and that is what the
warning is saying. While you have satisfied the restriction that the first
argument must be "x", but then set the default value to something that R is
unable to resolve to a value. What you may want to do is something like this:
plot.func<-function(x,y,...) { if(missing(x)) stop("Must have an x value")
if(missing(y)) stop("Must have a y value") ...}

In effect, this works
but whether I use x or x.init, y or y.init in plot.func, I get
no visible binding for global variable ‘x.init’no visible binding for global
variable ‘y.init’

I don't really understand your question, but this is all about the
function header for plot.func, not the call you make to plot(). You
need to name the first argument as "x", you need to include "..." as an
open argument, and you need a legal header. So this would be okay:
plot.func<- function(x=x.init, y=y.init, arg3, arg4,
main = "title", # can't skip the arg name
col, arg5,
...) { # can't skip the dots
