poster.plot

Convenient xyplot with Differently Colored Margin and Plot Region

Description

Convenient xyplot with Colored Background. Background of margin may be chosen independently from background in plot region.

Usage

poster.plot(x, y = NULL, type = "p",
            col = col.fg, col.axis = col.fg, col.lab = col.fg,
            col.fg = "blue", col.bg = "lavender", col.box = "cornsilk",
            xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, xlab = "", ylab = "",
            main = "", cex = 1.2, axes = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

`x`	A vector, data.frame or matrix. When x is data.frame or matrix only first two columns are used.
`y`	A vector or `NULL`
`type`	See Argument `type` in `par`
`col`	Color of points. If `length(col)` > 1, colors are recycled.
`col.axis`	Color of axis.
`col.lab`	Color of labels on axis.
`col.fg`	Color of foreground.
`col.bg`	Color of background outside of figure.
`col.box`	Color of background inside of figure
`xlim`	Limits of x-axis.
`ylim`	Limits of y-axis
`xlab`	Label of x-axis
`ylab`	Label of y-axis
`main`	Titel.
`cex`	Size of characters.
`axes`	Should axis be plotted?
`...`	Additional arguments to `par`.

Details

Side effect: par options will remain changed so that other graphic elements can be added comfortably.

Examples

poster.plot(iris[,1],iris[,2],
            xlab="Sepal.Length", ylab="Sepal.Width")

poster.plot(iris[,1], col="red", col.box="grey95", ylab="Sepal.Length")

## plotting lines
n <- 200
freq <- 1:n
y <- sin(freq/n*4*pi)*cos(freq/n*3*pi) + 0.1*rnorm(n)
poster.plot(y,col.fg="grey30",type="l")
