tisLegend: Add a legend to a tisPlot or scatterPlot
In tis: Time Indexes and Time Indexed Series

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also

The plotting functions tisPlot and scatterPlot leave an object named latestPlot in the frame from which they were called. tisLegend uses that object to set legend arguments (which you can override) and sets reasonable defaults for other arguments.

1 2	tisLegend(..., xrel = 0.1, yrel = 0.1, xjust = 0, yjust = 1, boxType ="n", ncol = 1, cex = 1)

`...`	optional arguments to be passed on to `legend`. These can include `x` and `y` arguments to position the legend, or a list with components named `x` and `y`, such as the list returned by `locator(1)`.
`xrel, yrel`	Optional numbers between 0 and 1 to specify placement relative to the boundaries of the plot.
`xjust, yjust, ncol`	passed along to `legend`
`boxType`	passed along as `bty` to `legend`
`cex`	gets multiplied by the `cex` from `latestPlot` and then passed on to `legend`

This function is not strictly necessary, in that you could just call legend directly. tisLegend makes things a bit easier, however, by using the same argument names as tisPlot and scatterPlot to specify color, lineType, plotChar and boxType, rather than the less intuitive col, lty, pch and bty names. The xrel and yrel arguments provide an alternative way to specify legend placement, one that is used by the ChartMaker program.
