Hi all,
I tried to a nice legend with small boxes filled with the colors used
for the plots. But it does nor work, boxes are always filled with black.
An example is here
plot(1:4,1:4)
lines(1:4,4:1, col="blue")
legend("top",leg=c("a","b"),col=c("black","blue"), fill=TRUE)
How could I specify the colors? the argument col.box is the color of
the whole legend box...
Ah Cristophe, you have been waylaid by the coercion of types. The fill
argument specifies the colors of the boxes, and you have sent it TRUE.
As TRUE happens to be equal to 1, legend is fooled into filling the
boxes with the color assigned the number 1, which is black. Try:
legend(...,fill=c("black","blue"),...)
