Hi Thomas, without really knowing how your plot looks like: You could try to redraw the first plot in the same device, i.e.:
#graph it hist(weights$Weight, freq=TRUE, breaks=breakpoints, main=wfiles[i]) #lines(dens) polygon(dens$x, dens$y, border=NA, col=rgb(1,0,1,0.5)) #direct into open device par(new=T) #again your histogram hist(weights$Weight, freq=TRUE, breaks=breakpoints, main=wfiles[i]) cheers, René > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: "Thomas Fröjd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Gesendet: 15.07.08 13:07:45 > An: r-help@r-project.org > Betreff: [R] Layers in graphs > Hi, > > I am trying to plot a distribution over a histogram with the polygon() > function.
