overlapping plots

Andy, If I had the three plots on three separate sheets of paper, I could cut out plot 2 and paste it over plot one so that the data and axes on both plots can be seen. Then I could cut out plot 3 and past it over plots 1 and 2 so that data and axes on all three plots can be seen. For my special case, the x-axes would have to appear at the top of each plot. If there are boxes around the plots or guide lines, the parts below plots 2 and 3 should be obscured.
This is pretty rough, but I think it might be basically what you want. par(mar=c(6,2,2,6)) plot(rnorm(20),rnorm(20),axes=FALSE,xlab="",ylab="") axis(2) axis(3) par(new=TRUE) par(mar=c(4,4,4,4)) plot(rnorm(10),type="l",col="green",axes=FALSE,xlab="",ylab="") axis(2,col="green") axis(3,col="green") par(new=TRUE) par(mar=c(2,6,6,2)) plot(rnorm(12),pch=2,col="red",axes=FALSE,xlab="",ylab="") axis(2,col="red") axis(3,col="red") Jim
