Dear Joe,

I'd try to think it over if you sent me a reproducible example, i.e., 
example data, and code showing what you did with the pam output (how you'd like to 
have it) and with the trimkmeans output (which should be improved).

Best,
Christian

This works straighforwardly on an object created from pam however my colors are interwoven when I try the same approach on clusters from trimkmeans. I also tried sorting the silhouette object using sortSilhouette which did not solve the problem. If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know. I'm using R 2.4.0 on an XP based PC.
