small plot inside a big plot

Actually, that will not work. I want the histogram to be much smaller than the plot to which i want to add it, I don't want to overlay it, instead i want to have a small box in the whitespace of the scatterplot containing the histogram.

For a histogram, you might use `add = TRUE' in the call to hist().

Dear R-helpers,

i want to draw a small plot (histogram) within a larger plot (simple scatterplot), so that the axes of the bigger plot remain intact.

I know how to use layout() and par(mfrow...) and such, but I want the smaller graph to be *inside* the bigger plot. Is this possible?

thanks,

Remko
