Hi Ogbos,
I don't think that your example allows us to work out what you are
trying to do. For one thing, "x1" and "x2" do not overlap. Also, you
are plotting the frequencies of dates of observations, which may not
be what you want.
The following code will correctly display your example:
hist(x1,breaks="years",freq=T,axes=F,xlim=c(9400,11100),col=c1a)
hist(x2,breaks="years",freq=T,axes=F,add=T,col=c2a)
axis.Date(1, at=seq(as.Date(min(x1)), as.Date(max(x2)), by="years"))
axis(2)
legend("topleft", c("AUTO", "MANUAL"), fill=c("red", "blue"))
What it is displaying is the frequency of observations in your two
vectors by calendar year. If this is what you want, and you can
explain how you would like "overlap" to be displayed, we can probably
provide better help.
