Dear Mr. Ligges,
 
 my apologies! As I can see in your E-Mail the quote of mine is really  just unreadable! Anyhow, this was not produced by me writing messy  messages, this is due to the Java application behind the client not  being able to cope with external tab-characters on my browser when  parsing the message while sending(I tipped the message on an external  editor because of the code lines and copy pasted it). Of course I also  never would add any html files!
 
 Anyhow, I send you my original message again (new = True did not help  me. Assuming I used it the way you suggested it produced the same  error). I send it to myself first, so I am sure, this mess won't happen  again!
 
 My previous Message:

 Dear Madame or Sir,
 
 I am having a problem in combining density-smoothed scatterplot matrices  with a plot of kernel destiny estimations of each dimension plotted on  the respective diagonals.
 
 I have tried following approach using the package "sm" for the kernel density estimation, as well as "MASS" respectively:
 
 pairs
 (myTable[, 1:4],
     panel=function(x,y, ...)
     {  
         xy=kde2d(x,y) 
         image(xy, add=TRUE)
     }
     ,diag.panel = function(x,...)
     {
         plot(density(x,...), add = TRUE)
         #boxplot(x, add = TRUE)
     }
 )
 
 where myTable is an ordinary table I am using the first four columns of.  Unfortunately this produces an error stating that plot has created a  new plot. I suppose this is the same situation when forgetting "add  =  TRUE" with plotting functions such as boxplot (as in my code used with  "boxplot(x, add = TRUE)" ) or any other (e.g. smoothScatter). Analyzing  the partial plot,  which can be seen before R rejects my code, I come to  the conclusion that add might not be a valid argument for "plot".
  My questions therefore is, whether there is an option to plot the  result of the 1d kernel density estimation to the diagonal of the  scatterplot produced by pairs or which plot function is valid in this  case. So basically I would like to generate the same output I am able to  produce with boxplots on the diagonal with a density estimation.
 
 Additional question: I bet there is an opportunity to include both the  boxplot and the kernel density estimation on each field of the diagonal  (as I saw before in a published paper), but I just could not figure out  how to "overdraw". Maybe you could give me a slight idea (reference  would be fine, too) on how to achieve this. I would be highly thankful!
 
 
 Kind regards and many thanks in advance,
 -Patrick Grossman
