Dear Anne-Katrin, You could use ggplot to do this. The example below works, although it generates some warnings.
library(ggplot2) dataset <- data.frame(x = 0:55, y = rnorm(56, 10), z = runif(56, 9, 11)) ggplot(data = dataset) + geom_bar(aes(x = factor(x), y = y), position = "dodge") + geom_line(aes(x = x, y = z)) HTH, Thierry ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ir.

Dear all, how can I plot a line graph and a bar graph in one single figure? I tried to combine "barplot" and "plot". Even though they both have the same x-values (1 to 55), it just doesnt look as if they match in their scale (the barplot is much wider than the "plot"....even though I tried to put limits on the x-axis). Here is an example of what I did: barplot(y, xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylim=c(-1,45), xlim=c(1,55)) ... par(new=TRUE) plot(x, ynew, lty=2, type="l", ylim=c(0,15), xlim=c(1,55)) Another question: how can I make sure that the "0"-values from the barchart are displayed as well? Thank you so much! Anne-Katrin -- Psst!
