type="g", "smooth", "r", etc. are all convenience shortcuts for other panel functions (panel.grid, panel.loess, panel.lmline, respectively). Whenever you find its use limiting, you should consider writing an explicit panel function. In this case, simply adding 'horizontal=TRUE' will suffice for the smooth (it gets passed on to panel.loess), but not for panel.lmline (maybe I should add it 'horizontal' as an argument to it too). -Deepayan ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
