Plot Tframed Objects

Description

Plot tframe or tframed objects.

Usage

    tfplot(x, ...)

    ## Default S3 method:
    tfplot(x, ..., tf=tfspan(x, ...), start=tfstart(tf), end=tfend(tf),
       series=seq(nseries(x)), Title=NULL, xlab=NULL, ylab=seriesNames(x), 
       graphs.per.page=5, mar=par()$mar, reset.screen=TRUE)
    tfOnePlot(x, xlab=NULL, ylab=NULL, 
              tf=tframe(x), start=tfstart(tf), end=tfend(tf),...)

Arguments

x a tframe or tframed object to plot.
... any additional tframed objects for the same plot.
start start of plot. (passed to tfwindow)
end end of plot. (passed to tfwindow)
tf a tframe or tframed object which can be used to specify start and end.
series series to be plotted. (passed to selectSeries)
Title string to use for plot title.
xlab string to use for x label (passed to plot).
ylab string to use for y label (passed to plot).
graphs.per.page integer indicating number of graphs to place on a page.
mar margins passed to plot. See par.)
reset.screen logical indicating if the plot window should be cleared before starting. If this is not TRUE then mar values will have no effect.

Details

In many cases these are the same as plot methods, however, tfplot puts different series in the object x in different plot panels, whereas plot usually puts them in the same panel. For this reason, tfplot tends to work better when the scale of the different series are very different. If additional objects are supplied, then they should each have the same number of series as x and all corresponding series will be plotted in the same panel.

tfplot provides an alternate generic mechanism for plotting time series data. New classes of time series may define there own tfplot (and plot) methods.

The start and end arguments to tfplot determine the start and end of the plot. The argument tf is an alternate way to specify the start and end. It is ignored if start and end are specified.

Value

None.
