The response much appreciated. They do match up, one is a small subset of
the other.

I have this:
> dput(table1)
structure(list(var1 = c(2L, 4L, 4L, 1L, 423L), var2 = c(3L, 5L,
6L, 342L, 3L)), .Names = c("var1", "var2"), class = "data.frame", row.names
= c("node1",
"node2", "node3", "node4", "node5"))

> dput(list1)
structure(list(node = c("node1", "node2")), .Names = "node")

so one table is a 2 X 5 matrix (called table1) and one table is 1 X 2 table
(called list1).


i then type this:

> plot1 <-plot(table,suprow=c(list1$node),"passive")
to give me a plot of list1

and this:

> plot2 <-plot(table,suprow=c(list1$node),"active")
to give me a plot of table1

i want to combine plot 1 and 2.

BUT  i know i can do this:
> plot2 <-plot(table,suprow=c(list1$node),"all") to plot both on the same
graph,
but in my actual dataset, the points in list1 are obscured from sight by
table1, because in reality table 1 may contain 20,000 points and list1 may
contain 10 points, so i cannot see where my 10 specific nodes of interest
are on the graph. So i want to plot the graph so that any nodes in list1
are seen on top of the plot of table 1.
