The example shows a trellis plot with the Overlap Panels option enabled. Two variables, Location and Treatment, are used to define the horizontal panels. This results in a four-panel horizontal array. By enabling the Overlap Panels option, we combine four panels into one while preserving the grouping information. Note that plot symbol color is indexed to the four Location x Treatment combinations and symbol shape is indexed to Year, as shown in the plot legends.
