Is this what you want?
ppi <- seq(0, 2 * pi, length.out = 21)[-21]
plot(c(-5, 5), c(-5, 5), xaxs = "i", yaxs = "i",
type = "n", axes = FALSE, ann = FALSE, asp=1)
polygon(cos(ppi) * 4 + rnorm(20, sd = .2),
sin(ppi) * 4 + rnorm(20, sd = .2),
col = "green", border = FALSE)
polygon(cos(ppi) * 2 + rnorm(20, sd = .1),
sin(ppi) * 2 + rnorm(20, sd= .1),
col = "blue", border = FALSE)
abline(0, 2, col = "red")
legend("topleft", legend = c("out", "in", "line"),
bty = "n",
col = c("green", "blue", "red"),
lty = c(0, 0, 1), lwd = c(0, 0, 1),
pch = c(22, 22, NA),
pt.bg = c("green", "blue", NA),
pt.cex = 2)
Instead of using 'fill', set the points explicitly and then define the
point backgrounds, line types, etc. to get the desired result.
See ?par for line type information.
BTW, some strategically placed spaces would help with code readability.
