[R] How to control in order of groups in xyplot

[Rainer Hurling]

A working minimal example would have been better, see FAQ.

But I think you are looking for the following:

X2 <- factor(c("m=2", "m=5", "m=10"), levels=c("m=2", "m=5", "m=10"))

Here levels are ordered in your way. There might be other solutions for 
this ordering problem.

Hope it helps,
Rainer
