Hi is there a automatic way that long distances between points are not connected. I have something like plot(x,y,type="o",...) atx <- seq(as.Date("2009-04-01"),as.Date("2011-04-01"),"month") axis.Date(1, at=atx,labels=format(atx, "%b\n%Y"), padj=0.5 ) but I do not want lines between points whose distance is greater than two weeks. thx Christof
