Hi Ted,
here is a more usefull example showing a plot on a free place of a
second one
gr1=Plot[Sin[x],{x,0,Pi}];
gr2=Plot[Cos[x],{x,0,Pi},
Epilog->{Rectangle[Scaled [{0.5,0.5}],Scaled [{0.9,0.9}],gr1]}]
This feature may be usefull if you draw a enlarged part of a function
and in the Rectangle[] an global view.
Rectangle[] effectives scale its third argument and place it in the
picture.
Hope that helps
Jens
