Hi Gabor, It seems that the problem depends on operating system. I have recently switched from using R on Windows Vista to using it on Ubuntu Linux. I had already tried your two suggestions on Ubuntu and they produce the same error: Error in ylim[[idx]] : subscript out of bounds According to debug(), the error occurs in the second tapply in the definition of "ranges". I traced it up to the Internal lapply and couldn't see any reason why the error should occur.
On the other hand, your suggestions work on Windows. Also, the broken command still doesn't work on Windows. But, it produces an entirely different error message: Error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'ylim' values thanks, Scott Gabor Grothendieck wrote: > > Thanks for the bug report.
