I have edited the code (hacked from another graph) to provide more control over the different elements of the graph. Now we have a graph at publication quality! Slowly the power of R graphics is shining through the thick cloud of options! Beautiful.

An off list response from Mat Soukop (thanks Mat!!) provides an even more elegant solution (see code below)! I have included the original code, so people can decide whether to plot in a single panel or in multiple panels. Now we have a fully functional workaround to get plotmeans{gplots} for multiple factors using lattice! Great!

Problem solved!

I was so focused on reproducing the plotmeans() functionality with xYplot() that I completely overlooked the fact that my data does not allow a x-y plot, as only Sodium is a numeric variable while Position and AltGeo are factors!

Using unclass() to make Position a numeric variable does the trick:
tmp$Position <- unclass(tmp$Position)

The code below does the trick. Now I only need to figure out how to tweak the x axis to pretend I am plotting a factor, i.e. plotting labels "Inside" and "Outside".

Cheers,

Sander.

Dear all,

I am trying to plot means and error bars using xYplot, but I get an error message from xYplot which I can not figure out:

The data frame (tmpNa) was created using aggregate. I have used dump to created the code below, which generates the same error.

Can anybody tell me what is wrong with the data frame?

Thanks in advance,
