Package 'zoo' - CRAN

30 plot.zoo
Details
xy.labels logical, indicating if text labels should be used in the scatter plot, or character,
supplying a vector of labels to be used.
xy.lines logical, indicating if lines should be drawn in the scatter plot. Defaults to the
value of xy.labels if that is logical, otherwise to FALSE.
yax.flip logical, indicating if the y-axis (ticks and numbering) should flip from side 2
(left) to 4 (right) from series to series when type = "multiple".
xlab, ylab, main, xlim, oma, mar
graphical arguments, see par.
col, lty, lwd, pch, type
graphical arguments that can be vectors or (named) lists. See the details for
more information.
log specification of log scales as "x", "y" or "xy".
nc the number of columns to use when plot.type = "multiple". Defaults to 1
for up to 4 series, otherwise to 2.
widths, heights
widths and heights for individual graphs, see layout.
... additional graphical arguments.
The methods for plot and lines are very similar to the corresponding ts methods. However, the
handling of several graphical parameters is more flexible for multivariate series. These parameters
can be vectors of the same length as the number of series plotted or are recycled if shorter. They
can also be (partially) named list, e.g., list(A = c(1,2), c(3,4)) in which c(3, 4) is the default
value and c(1, 2) the value only for series A. The screens argument can be specified in a
similar way. If plot.type and screens conflict then multiple plots will be assumed. Also see the
examples.
In the case of a custom panel the panel can reference parent.frame$panel.number in order to
determine which frame the panel is being called from. See examples.
par(mfrow=...) and Axis can be used in conjunction with single panel plots in the same way as
with other classic graphics.
For multi-panel graphics, plot.zoo takes over the layout so par(mfrow=...) cannot be used.
Axis can be used within the panels themselves but not outside the panel. See examples.
In addition to classical time series line plots, there is also a simple barplot method for "zoo"
series.
