Bert,
Thank you very much for your reply. Your suggestions to set manually y-limits
of panels in lattice plot certainly puts me on the right track.
It works really well with xyplot():
hf <- data.frame(
  x=seq(1,20,by=1),
  y=seq(0.1,2,by=0.1),
  risk=gl(2,10,labels=c("low","high")),
  treatment=rep(gl(2,5,labels=c("oXX","oYY")),2))            Â
Â
xyplot(y~x|treatment+risk,data=hf,type="b",
      scales=list(y=list(limits=list(c(-0.1,1.1),c(-0.1,1.1),
                                    Â
c(1.0,2.1),c(1.0,2.1)),
                  at=list(seq(0,1,0.2),NULL,
                          seq(1,2,0.2),NULL),
                  relation="free")))
With the xyplot() above, I get 2x2 lattice where panels in the same row have
the same y-limits:
Panel 1,2 (row 1): -0.1, 1.1
Panel 3,4 (row 2): 1.0, 2.1
Unfortunately, it does not work so well with dot plots:
kf <- data.frame(subject=c("A","BB","A","C","DDD","DDD"),
                risk=c("low","low","low","high","high","high"),
               Â
treatment=c("oXX","oXX","oYY","oXX","oXX","oYY"),
                count=c(5,7,10,4,13,8))
kf$risk <- factor(kf$risk,levels=c("low","high"))
kf$treatment <- factor(kf$treatment,levels=c("oXX","oYY"))
lims.low <- factor(c("A","BB"))
lims.high <- factor(c("C","DDD"))
dotplot(subject~count|treatment+risk,data=kf,type=c("p","h"),
       scales=c(y=list(limits=list(lims.low,lims.low,
                             Â
lims.high,lims.high),
                       relation="free")))
With the dotplot() above I get 2x2 lattice plot where all panels have the
same y-limits; y-ticks on all panels are 'A','BB','C','DDD'.
This behaviour is probably fixed by design. According to documentation for
prepanel functions: "... to make this information consistent between panels,
the âxlimâ or âylimâ values should represent all the levels of the
corresponding factor, even if some are not used within that particular panel."
A way to trick lattice would be to use xyplot() with a custom panel function.Â
I'll give a try today or tomorrow.
Regards,
Boris.

Boris:
If I understand you correctly, you wish to set panel limits by row. I
know of no "slick" way of doing this (others may), as what is in a row
can change depending on layout and how you determine the scale for the
rows' contents may depend on the application context.
So I would do it manually: First, outside of trellis, compute your
xlim and ylim values for each row as you desire. Then issue the
trellis call, with the relation="free" component in the scales = list,
Then just use the list form of the xlim and ylim argument to xyplot
with your precomputed limits.
