Hi,
is it possible to reverse the order in which panel.lmline() or panel.smooth()
operation in xyplot() ? This type of situation might occur when plotting some
variable with depth, but the relation we want to describe is variable ~
depth, and not depth ~ variable, as the plotting formula would suggest.
# an example:
d <- 1:100
v <- d * rnorm(100)
xyplot(d ~ v, ylim=c(100,0), type=c('p','r','smooth'))
# points are positioned correctly, but the lmline and smoothed line are in
opposite the "desired" orientation. obviously xyplot() has no way of knowing
this, but can it be convinced?
type="g", "smooth", "r", etc. are all convenience shortcuts for other panel functions (panel.grid, panel.loess, panel.lmline, respectively). Whenever you find its use limiting, you should consider writing an explicit panel function. In this case, simply adding 'horizontal=TRUE' will suffice for the smooth (it gets passed on to panel.loess), but not for panel.lmline (maybe I should add it 'horizontal' as an argument to it too). -Deepayan
