Disclaimer: I don't have strong personal preferences, I just went with what Trellis had. That said, > (1) gray backgrounds and lattice's default background is now white, and this was partly because many people seemed to dislike the grey background. My personal feeling is that it looked good on a screen or when using a beamer, but not so good when printed. ggplot's background is lighter, so this probably does not apply. > (2) filled points? > [I seem to remember seeing somewhere the opposite recommendation > for points, i.e. that open points make it much easier to > see if there are overlapping values -- and this would > be a reason that pch=1 gives an open circle ...] lattice does have open circles by default, except in ungrouped dot plots, where there is no possibility of overlapping. -Deepayan ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
