basically the for loop goes something like this setCounters(135);
for(i in 1:query) { plot(c2data[start1:count,],c3data[start1:count,],xlim=c(-30,100), ylim=c(-30,90), sub=i); points(..); #count increments } so if i use windows() or x11(), i get different plot windows if I use par(), i get one plot, but it redraws on top of previous plots, so if my query goes from 1 to 5, it plots 5 plots on top of each other, which in some ways, is ok, but doesn't go well for putting it in a publication. i want to draw a single plot with additional data from each for loop.. as the loop proceeds, it adds another set of data onto the previous plot , i suppose, it doesn't redraw the axis and labels and just plot the data Mohan On 25 Mar 2009, at 18:43, Nutter, Benjamin wrote: > I understood this to mean you want to open a new plotting window on > each > iteration of the loop.
