simple spplot problem (colorkey inside the plotting area)
Dear Rainer,
spplot is a wrapper function around levelplot (for grids, polygons and
lines) or xyplot (for points), both in package lattice.
As the documentation mentions, the key.space argument is only available
for points, where it is passed (as key argument) to xyplot.
I looked up the documentation of ?levelplot (after loading lattice), and
although it does have x and y componenents for the colorkey, it does
explicitly mention that these are not implemented. The only things you
can modify are the key height/width, and the space argument ('bottom',
'left', 'right', 'top'). I do not see a possibility to move the key to
wherever you want.
I cc:'d this message to Deepayan Sarkar, the lattice author, maybe he
has a suggestion where to look next.

I'm using spplot to color regions of Austria Everything works fine But I like to have the colorkey INSIDE the plotting area (in the Bavaria window :-) space just puts it outside (top, bottom, left, right) as the spplot is a lattice object it should be possible I've tried the examples from http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/gallery/ With the key.space=list(x=0.2,y=0.9,corner=c(0,1)) But this is simply ignored
Hi Rainer, I'm not sure whether I can help, but as soon as I include a "key.space=list(x=0, y=0, corner=c(0,0))" into an spplot call, the color key wanders into the plotting rectangle. The (minimal) full call here is: print(spplot(sppdf, zcol = i, key.space=list(x=0,y=0.01,corner=c(0,0)))) (inside the postscript device for producing eps figures) If you have, maybe post some code that we can try; or the structure of your data frame and some further lines to experiment with.
