hello all,
I'm overlaying numerous scatter plots onto a map (done in PBSmodelling). In
this case I'm placing each plot by setting par(fig) to the centroid of map
polygons. The location/mapping part is not so important. There are cases of
small overlaps for some plots (ie figures) so I'm keen to write or find a
function that moves my small scatter plots so they don't overlap. A little like
jitter, but not random in behaviour, it needs to move away from the plots it's
overlapping.
thanks to all
Michael

I would investigate the subplot() function in Greg Snow's
TeachingDemos package, possibly in conjunction with his
updateusr() function.
For interactive placement of figures, it should be possible to
use locator() to place each plot.
