Hadley would give better examples than me (and I'm no expert of SAS- SPSS) but with ggplots, in R, it is both very easy produce statistical plots (i.e. with results from lm's,various smoothers, data density etc.) and to overlay different graphics layers without having to take care of the scales, legends, etc. http://had.co.nz/ggplot2/ NB: the website itself only demonstrates simple graphs done with one function (since its purpose is documentation) but overlaying two graphs is often as simple as adding them: p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x=wt, y=mpg)) + geom_point() g <- geom_path(aes(x=wt,y=mpg, colour=qsec)) p + g (this example is probably useless but it is only for demonstration purposes) JiHO --- http://jo.irisson.free.fr/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
