[R] ggplot inside function doesn't plot

I have a function:

myplot <- function (X) {
    d <- plotCounts(dds2, gene=X, intgroup="condition",
returnData=TRUE)
    png(paste("img/", X, ".png", sep=""))
    ggplot(d, aes(x=condition, y=count, color=condition)) +
        geom_point(position=position_jitter(w=0.1,h=0)) +
        scale_y_log10(breaks=c(25,100,400)) +
        ggtitle(X) +
        theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))

    dev.off()
    }

'd' is a dataframe

                             count      condition
E11.5 F20HET BA40_quant   955.9788   E11.5 F20HET

E11.5 F9.20DKO zzE2_quant 349.3313 E11.5 F9.20DKO

If I set X="Etv5" and paste the contents of the function into R, I get
'img/Etv5.png'
If I run myplot(X), I get nothing.

+ theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))> dev.off()null device
          1> list.files("img")[1] "Etv5.png"

Why doesn't my function work?

Hi

You have to print it.

just add

print(all ggplot stuff)

inside the function.

Cheers

`ggplot` creates an object. You need to print it when used inside a function.
Inside a function (in a more restricted environment) there is no
parse-eval-print-loop.

[R] ggplot inside function doesn't plot

I don't really understand. I mean, I understand the solution is
print(ggplot(...)).  But why is that required in a function and not at
the console?

Shouldn't I be able to rely on what I do at the console working in a
script?  Is this inconsistent behavior by design?
