1. Try this which uses lattice zoo graphics: xyplot(z, screen = 1, col = DF$plant) or with a legend: key <- list(space = "top", text = levels(DF$plant), points = FALSE, lines = TRUE, col = 1:nlevels(DF$plant)) xyplot(z, screen = 1, col = DF$plant, auto.key = key) 2. or using classic zoo graphics plot(z, screen = 1, col = DF$plant) To add a legend: legend("topleft", legend = levels(DF$plant), col = 1:nlevels(DF$plant), lty = 1) -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ 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.
