In order to display a polygon, you need x/y pairs for each point. If you just want a rectangle, you only need four x/y pairs, e.g.:
plot(0,xlim=x(2.44,2.57),ylim=c(0,1),type="n") polygon(c(2.44,2.57,2.57,2.44),c(0,0,1,1),col="lightgray") Now if you have a series of x values and want to display a band of constant width around it: y_values<-runif(14) plot(seq(2.44,2.57,by=0.01),y_values,ylim=c(-2,3)) dispersion(seq(2.44,2.57,by=0.01),y_values,ulim=rep(0.5,14), type="l",interval=TRUE,col="lightgray") lines(seq(2.44,2.57,by=0.01),y_values) Jim On Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 8:59 PM, Elysa Mitova <elysa.mit...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thank you, > > this seems to work, but it is not exactly what I need (it indeed looks > great, but a bit beyond my understanding) > > I just need a shaded area between 2.44 to 2.57 along the x-axis - a polygon > inserted into my density plot (and not a confidence line along a scatter > plot like your suggested solution) > > My x-axis is an index (a data frame), my y-axis is the automatically > constructed density > > On Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 10:01 AM, Jim Lemon <drjimle...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi Elysa, >> I think you are going a bit off course in your example.
