Draw a Box around a Plot

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.

Keywords: aplot

Usage

box(which = "plot", lty = "solid", …)

Arguments

which: character, one of "plot", "figure", "inner" and "outer".
lty: 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.

Details

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").
