        colCtr = NA, lty = par('lty'), lwd = par('lwd'),
        pch = par('pch'), cex = par('cex'))

Arguments

xleft

a vector (or scalar) of left x positions.

ybottom

a vector (or scalar) of bottom y positions.

xright

a vector (or scalar) of right x positions.

ytop

a vector (or scalar) of top y positions.

fg
