Hello all, I'm using R1.2.2 and wonder whether there is already a new (unofficial) version that supports fill patterns for polygon(). thanks M.E. -- +------------------------------------------------------- | Marcus Eger +-------- ><> ------------------------------------------- | E-Mail: eger.m at gmx.de (NEW) | marcus.eger at physik.uni-marburg.de (OLD) | WWW: http://neuro.physik.uni-marburg.de/~eger (NEW) +-------------------------------------------------------- -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

It would be useful to have something like this for on paper reproduction. If you have a one-off need, you could try using the xfig driver (or postscript and pstoedit) and use xfig to change the fill from solid to patterned. -- Ross Ihaka Email: ihaka at stat.auckland.ac.nz Department of Statistics Phone: (64-9) 373-7599 x 5054 University of Auckland Fax: (64-9) 373-7018 Private Bag 92019, Auckland New Zealand -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
