[Rd] legend() with xpd=T; omission of initial plot character (PR#943)
In the following: plot(0:1, 0:1) legend(x=0, y=1.2, pch=c(1,2), legend=c("May","June")) the first plot character is omitted when plotting to the screen. I obtained the same behaviour when placing a legend in the margin following use of pairs() -please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = x86 os = Win32 system = x86, Win32 status major = 1 minor = 2.3 year = 2001 month = 04 day = 26 language = R Windows 98 SE 4.10 (build 2222) A Search Path: .GlobalEnv, package:ctest, Autoloads, package:base John Maindonald email : john.maindonald@anu.edu.au Statistical Consulting Unit, phone : (6125)3998 c/o CMA, SMS, fax : (6125)5549 John Dedman Mathematical Sciences Building Australian National University Canberra ACT 0200 Australia -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

Hi Bug summary:---- par(xpd=T) plot(0:1, 0:1) legend(x=0, y=1.2, pch=c(1,2), legend=c("May","June")) the first plot character is omitted when plotting to the screen. Bug summary:---- I cannot reproduce this bug, BUT it did show up a bug in rect() -- in the example above, the border around the legend is not drawn. This is because rect() ignores par(xpd). The default is rect(xpd=FALSE). This is at odds with text(xpd=NULL) and polygon(xpd=NULL) which use par(xpd) by default. arrows(xpd=FALSE) has the same problem as rect(). I propose modifying rect() and arrows() to use par(xpd) by default like text() and polygon(). There will, as usual, be a small risk that someone's code will produce different output after this change, but this risk should be pretty small. Any objections ... ?

Coincidence, I *did* look at that bug only yesterday. My experience: I *could* reproduce the bug {X11(), Linux-386}, but only a few times. Then, it didn't show anymore. Even restarting R wouldn't show it again. My ``explanation'' was that it might be (a bug) inside X11 / Window manager handling of things... ?? Paul> This is because rect() ignores par(xpd).
