Sorry. My previous code didn't quite display my problem correctly. To make my point more clear, I want to use my "groups" as the label for the point, or rather the point itself. The key becomes illegible with many groups.
x<-as.factor(1:5) y<-rnorm(1:10) f1<-c("a","b") f2<-c("x","y") dat<-expand.grid(x=x, y=y, f1=f1, f2=f2) dat$ID <- 1:dim(dat)[1] xyplot(y~x | f1 + f2, groups=ID,dat) xyplot(y~x | f1 + f2, groups=ID,auto.key=TRUE,dat) # more accurate rep of problem with key Thanks Pat On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 9:58 PM, Pat Schmitz <pschm...@illinois.edu> wrote: > I am using a plot to inspect data points, and I would like to identify each > point with respect to an ID.
