[R] index.cond in xyplot

That's not a valid specification.  See the description of the index.cond
argument in ?xyplot and in particular this part:

               If 'index.cond' is a list, it has to be as long as the number of
               conditioning variables, and the 'i'-th component has to
be a valid
               indexing vector for the integer vector '1:nlevels(g_i)'
               (which can, among other things, repeat some of the
               levels or drop some altogether).

Thus in your case index.cond is a list with three components and
each of those components can specify a vector of the levels of interest in
the order of interest.

For example, compare the output of these two to get the idea where
CO2 is a builtin data set:

xyplot(conc ~ uptake | Type * Treatment, CO2, index.cond = list(1:2, 1:2))
xyplot(conc ~ uptake | Type * Treatment, CO2, index.cond = list(1:2, 2:1))
