R help - Jan 2001 - Redrawing !

Hi,

If I may suggest that something be done to the window drawing function of a
plot. As it is now, we don't even have time to resize the window by a tiny
bit before it's invoke and I think it would be an improvement if while the
mouse is down the redrawing was delayed somehow. This is especially true
when the plot is crowded. I also observed that moving the plot window around
was a lot smoother and easier. Which allows us to have much more control
over the positioning then the resizing of the plot window.

Thank for an incredible piece of software.

Are you talking about the default device on Windows?  I don't see a
problem, so it may be a graphics card/driver performance issue, or even a
Windows version issue.

This is buried in the GraphApp code which reacts to a Windows WM_SIZE
event, so I have no idea how to change this.  Would you like to submit a
patch?
