I wonder if you noticed that you had managed to create a "fig" object that has two "inside" lists by specifying first a key "list" which required a legend list, and then specifying a "legend" list that also had a key function? The solution to your specific request by Kortschak "nulled-out" the second of those.

A rather confused reply, I am afraid. I misattributed Lugue's posting to Kortschak. Lugeue obviously was aware of the structure of the fig object, since he correctly addressed the problem he originally posed.

Hi,

I thought the following would only remove the legend element of a
trellis object, but it actually removes both the legend and key
elements:

---<--------------------cut here--------------- start------------------->--- fig <- xyplot(Sepal.Length ~ Petal.Length, groups=Species, data=iris,
           key=list(x=1, y=0.02, corner=c(1, 0), size=3, between=1,
             text=list(levels(iris$Species))),
           legend=list(inside=list(fun="draw.key", x=0, y=1,
                         corner=c(0, 1),
args=list(key=list(text=list("a)", cex=1.5)),
                           draw=FALSE))))
update(fig, legend=NULL)
---<--------------------cut here--------------- end--------------------->---

Is this the right way to remove an element from the object, using
update.trellis()?  Thanks.

It probably depends on the element. In the case of "key", it is a descendant of the legend list so when you make legend NULL you are wiping out all of its descendants as well:
> str(fig)
List of 43
snipped a few lines
$ legend           :List of 2
..$ inside:List of 5
.. ..$ fun   : chr "draw.key"
.. ..$ args  :List of 2
.. .. ..$ key :List of 6
.. .. .. ..$ x      : num 1
.. .. .. ..$ y      : num 0.02
.. .. .. ..$ corner : num [1:2] 1 0
.. .. .. ..$ size   : num 3
