\HeaderA{panel.parallel}{Default Panel Function for parallel}{panel.parallel}
\keyword{dplot}{panel.parallel}
\begin{Description}\relax
This is the default panel function for \code{parallel}.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
panel.parallel(x, y, z, subscripts,
               groups = NULL,
               col, lwd, lty, alpha,
               common.scale = TRUE,
               lower,
               upper,
               ...)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{x, y}] dummy variables, ignored. 
\item[\code{z}] The data frame used for the plot.  Each column will be coerced to
numeric before being plotted, and an error will be issued if this
fails.

\item[\code{subscripts}] The indices of the rows of \code{z} that are to be displyed in this
panel.

\item[\code{groups}] An optional grouping variable.  If specified, different groups are
distinguished by use of different graphical parameters (i.e., rows
of \code{z} in the same group share parameters).

\item[\code{col, lwd, lty, alpha}] graphical parameters (defaults to the settings for
\code{superpose.line}).  If \code{groups} is non-null, these
parameters used one for each group.  Otherwise, they are recycled
and used to distinguish between rows of the data frame \code{z}.

\item[\code{common.scale}] logical, whether a common scale should be used columns of \code{z}.
Defaults to \code{FALSE}, in which case the horizontal range for
each column is different (as determined by \code{lower} and
\code{upper}).

\item[\code{lower, upper}] numeric vectors replicated to be as long as the number of columns in
\code{z}.  Determines the lower and upper bounds to be used for
scaling the corresponding columns of \code{z} after coercing them to
numeric.  Defaults to the minimum and maximum of each column.

\item[\code{...}] other arguments (ignored)
