[R] adjusting levelplot color scale to data

[baptiste auguie]

Hi,

Try specifying explicit break points together with their corresponding
colors using at and col.regions,

levelplot(m, at= unique(c(seq(-2, 0, length=100), seq(0, 10,
length=100))), col.regions = colorRampPalette(c("blue", "white",
"red"))(1e3))

HTH,

baptiste
