Dear R list,
The code below puts qq-plots for two of three groups on the one plot.
However the legend includes all three groups, ie the auto.key ignores the
subset instruction. Is there an easy way to get around this, so that only
those groups plotted are included in the legend?
y1-rnorm(100); y2-rnorm(100)+1; y3-rnorm(100)+2; y-c(y1,y2,y3)
fact=factor(c(rep(1,100),rep(2,100),rep(3,100)))
require(lattice)
qqmath(~y,groups=fact,auto.key=list(corner=c(0,1)),subset=fact!=2)
The subsetting of groups happens independently in each panel. As
there's no guarantee in general that the subset will have the same
non-empty set of levels in each panel, the only solution (with a
common legend) is to keep all the levels.
To drop unused levels in groups, you need to subset your data
beforehand. For example,
df - data.frame(y=c(y1,y2,y3),
fact=factor(c(rep(1,100),rep(2,100),rep(3,100
qqmath(~y, data=subset(df, fact!=2),
groups=fact[drop=TRUE],auto.key=list(corner=c(0,1)))
