Hi All I'm fairly new at R so there might be on obvious solution to my problem with calling the lattice function xyplot( ) from my own function. The function script is given below. The problem is that the xyplot() call does not do anything! I just get a blank graphics window and no error messages. The simple plot() function call works fine when not commented out so I know the data is getting in OK and when I run the the same xyplot() function call outside this function substituting the actual data frame then xyplot( ) works fine. Comparing the data summary both inside and outside the function showed that the data is identical. I put the "require('lattice')" statement in because I thought it might help but it did'nt. Any help as to why xyplot() is behaving differently to plot() and what I need to do to get the function working would be much appreciated. thanks Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------- Steven G Candy Applied Statistician Australian Antarctic Division 203 Channel Highway, KINGSTON Tasmania 7050 ph +61 3 6232 3135 "plot.fits.casal.trellis"<- function(data.df,xlim,ylim,XLAB,ylab) {
