[R] lattice with predicted values

[Martin Henry H. Stevens]

Dear lattice wizards,

I am trying to figure out how to plot predicted values in xyplot,  
where the intercept, but not the slope, varies among conditioning  
factor levels. I am sure it involves the groups, but I have been  
unsuccessful in my search in Pinhiero and Bate, in the help files, or  
in the archive, or in my attempts on my own.

My example follows:

FACT is a factor with levels a,b,c
COV is the covariate

mod ~ lm(Y ~ COV + FACT)


#The following draws the right predictions if the relation is the  
same for all factor levels, but I can't figure out how to have the  
same slopes but different intercepts.

# Function to draw predictions in xyplot

panel.predfinal <- function(mod, x, y) {
     xfit <- seq(min(x), max(x), length=21)
     yfit <- predict(mod, newdata=data.frame(COV=xfit))
     llines(xfit,yfit,lty=1) }

xyplot(Y ~ COV | FACT,
             panel=function(x,y,groups,subscripts){
             panel.xyplot(x,y)
             panel.predfinal(mod,x,y) }

I would be very grateful for pointers (books, chapters, pages,  
archives) that might have an example of an xyplot in which something  
(like the slope) is constant, and something else (like the  
intercepts) varies by factor level.
Cheers,
Hank
