Unless I make an error, the solution follows: use DisplayFunction->Identity To see what other options you may use: Options[ParametricPlot] ParametricPlot[..., DisplayFunction->Identity] ]; Show[Spiral[P,Q,R],Graphics[Line[{P,Q,R,P}, DisplayFunction->Identity]], DisplayFunction->$DisplayFunction]; Dan- Benjamin Rahn wrote: > > How can I overlay plots and graphics primitives _without_ displaying the > individual plots first? > > For example, I have a function that creates a plot of a spiral based > on three points in the plane: > > Spiral[A_,B_,C_]:=Module[ ... > ...; > ParametricPlot[...] ]; > > The function Spiral[] immediately generates the spiral, so the > command > > Show[Spiral[P,Q,R],Graphics[Line[{P,Q,R,P}]]]; > > gives two outputs: an image of the spiral by itself, and an image of the > spiral with the overlaid triangle.
