This function draws a box around the current plot in the given color
and linetype. The bty
parameter determines
the type of box drawn. See par
for details.
box(which = "plot", lty = "solid", …)
character, one of "plot"
, "figure"
,
"inner"
and "outer"
.
line type of the box.
further graphical parameters, such as bty
,
col
, or lwd
, see par
. Note that
xpd
is not accepted as clipping is always to the device
region.
The choice of colour is complicated. If col
was supplied
and is not NA
, it is used. Otherwise, if fg
was supplied
and is not NA
, it is used. The final default is par("col")
.
