[R] high density plots using lattice dotplot()

Hi Luigi
The layout.heights is in the wrong place try
par.settings = list(
strip.background=list(col="white"),
axis.text = list(cex = 0.6),
par.xlab.text = list(cex = 0.75),
par.ylab.text = list(cex = 0.75),
superpose.symbol = list(pch = ".", cex = 2),
layout.widths(main = 0.9,sub = 0), # see below
layout.heights = list(strip = 0.8)
),
Space is important so every 0.05 you can get away with is vital.
see
names(trellis.par.get())
trellis.par.get()$layout.widths
for more that may be changed and the same for layout.heights, it is amazing what small changes will create extra panel space
I modified a script that I did a few years ago so there may have been some changes
For the panel function if the following
panel = function(x,y, subscripts, groups,...){
panel.superpose(x,y,subscripts,groups,...,
col = ...)
panel.text(x,y,...,cex = 0.6)
}
does not work you will have to use panel.groups
eg untested (it’s a while since I have used this)
panel = panel.superpose,
panel.groups = function(x,y,...){
panel.xyplot(x,y,yourtext, cex = 0.6) # I meant with the... to put in a suitable object/code
})

Dear Duncan,
thank you for your reply. I tried to implement your suggestions but as
is on your reply did not work (actually R crashed) and a slight
elaboration returned the figure attached, which is essentially still
displaying text and not drawing the data. Here is what I wrote:
xyplot(Delta.Rn ~ Cycle | Well,
data = PLATE,
ylab="Fluorescence (Delta Rn)",
xlab="Cycles",
main=TITLE,
scales = list(
x = list(draw = FALSE),
y = list(draw = FALSE),
relation="same",
alternating=TRUE),
as.table = TRUE,
layout = c(24,16),
par.settings = list(
strip.background=list(col="white"),
axis.text = list(cex = 0.6),
par.xlab.text = list(cex = 0.75),
par.ylab.text = list(cex = 0.75),
superpose.symbol = list(pch = ".", cex = 2)
),
strip = FALSE,
type = "p",
layout.heights = list(strip = 0.8),
panel = function(x,y, subscripts, groups,...){
panel.superpose(x,y,subscripts,groups,...,
col = ...)
panel.text(x,y,...,cex = 0.6)
}
)
How can I improve the script?
Many thanks
Luigi
