In making grid graphs, one can make the background semi-transparent with a line like
grid.rect(gp=gpar(lty=0, fill=rgb(.5, .5, 0,. 25))) and then make the area where points and lines are plotted white with lines like pushViewport(plotViewport(c(5,4,3,1))) pushViewport(dataViewport(year, m, name="plotRegion")) grid.rect(gp=gpar(fill="white")) (The area where the labels, title, legend, etc. are remains semi-transparent.) I need to use the features of lattice for some graphs but want to keep the same color theme. In lattice, the background can be changed with the lines below, but it makes the entire graph this color. bsettings=trellis.par.get("background") bsettings$col=rgb(.5, .5, 0, .25) trellis.par.set("background", bsettings) How do I now change just the plot region back to white? Thanks. ______________________________________________ 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.
