I've lost track of the changes you've done to your
code and your original code was not runnable. However,
I noticed it used the line
myplotlist[nCount]=tt
where myplotlist was a list. Try changing that to
myplotlist[[nCount]] <- tt
(the '=' is acceptable but the the '[' is wrong).
I made that change to the code you posted at "Wed Dec 7 23:32:08 CET 2011"
(in the R-help archives), along with some extra lines to generate data,
and it seemed to work. When using the original
myplotlist[nCount] <- tt I got one warning per plot
Warning messages:
1: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
2: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
3: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
4: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
5: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
6: In myplotlist[nCount] = tt :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
and no plots were displayed.
