It took me several rounds of failed efforts before I came up with a
perspective that was successful. One of the most informative exercises
was to look at lattice plot objects with str(). It taught me to always
try "packaging" arguments in nested list structures. I highly
recommend examining several different lattice objects with str().

Hello,
I know I am supposed to get 'it' when I "?bwplot" but your example
really made things clearer for me.
Thanks,
Cheers,

Hello,
If you run the following code with lattice installed:
bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data=singer, xlab="Height (inches)")
There will be some text in the graph e.g. Soprano 1, Soprano 2, etc -
60, 65, etc and the title: Height (Inches). How can one make the font
for this text larger and/or bold? Also, is there a way to thicken or
bold the lines of the box and whisker plot?
The information to do this is located in various places of :
?bwplot and
?panel.bwplot
?grid.text # linked from help(bwplot) .../main, and needed for
fontsize argument
bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data=singer,
xlab=list(label="Height (inches)", fontsize=60), # silly
value
scales=list(cex=1.5),
par.settings=list(box.rectangle=list(lwd=2)))
The scales arguments are the one I have most often needed to use.
One can separately alter the x= and y= settings if needed.
Thank you kindly,
Michael
