What am I doing wrong? Your mistake was to assume that the documentation is correct! :) That behaviour is actually WAY out of date. You can do what you want using NA ... pushViewport(viewport(height=unit(.8, "npc"))) grid.rect(gp=gpar(col=NA, fill="green")) popViewport() Thanks for reporting the problem (the docs are now fixed).
