Try this which interpolates the NAs using na.approx from zoo drawing the interpolated series with lty=3 and then overwrites solid lines with the gaps using lines.
library(zoo) plot(y ~ x, as.data.frame(na.approx(zoo(cbind(x, y)))), lty = 3, type = "l") lines(y ~ x) On Wed, Apr 16, 2008 at 8:56 PM, DinoDragon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This maybe a silly question.
