Thank you, layout() worked perfectly! Another question: I'm adding some text to the plots (using text()) and the x and y coordinates seem to always be relative the the axes of the first call to plot(). Is there a way to reset the coordinates so that they are relative to the latest call to plot()? That would make it easier to position the text.
