Dear all,
Thanks for the response, however I'm getting the following error message when I
execute the legend command using the 'border' argument:
Error in legend(10, par("usr")[4], c("A", "B", :
unused argument(s) (border = FALSE)
Is anyone aware of any alternative means of switching off boxes around all but
one of the elements in a legend?
Many thanks for any input,
Steve
