Hi, I am using image() function to plot a matrix which has some missing valuies (NA). It looks like, by default, missing values were drawn in white color, How can I change that into a different color, say a gray color? I tried to use bg='gray' argument with no luck. Anyone has a suggestion?
They are not drawn in white: in fact they are not drawn at all, so the current background (or if transparent, the canvas) is what you see.
par(bg="yellow") image(matrix(c(1,2,NA, 1),2, 2))
works, for example.
