hello Richard, Thank a lot. The plot is breathtaking. I would like to make three modifications. Please kindly help and thanks. 1. making outliers from dash to empty circle (pch=2) I tried plot.symbol as the code below but failed. 2. making font size of axis (levels) larger to 1.2 unsure where

Hi Elaine, Without a reproducible example it's impossible to say, but I'd take a hard look at: table(obs.group) If that doesn't give you some insight, a small reproducible example included in your email using dput() would allow us to answer you more effectively. Sarah On Mon, Sep 24, 2012 at

See ?panel.bwplot for pch=|. That explains that pch=| puts horizontal lines instead of dots at the median(and also at the outliers). The rep makes it into a vector to be indexed by panel.bwplot.intermediate.hh in each of its calls to panel.bwplot The names under each plot are the levels of the
