R help - Nov 2001 - Bug in identify() ?

If I execute, e.g.
> x <- round(runif(20,0,1),2)
> y <- round(runif(20,0,1),2)
> plot(x,y,xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(0,1))
> identify(x,y,n=1,plot=F)
then I get the index of the identified point printed in the
command window, and ***initially*** the index is NOT displayed
in the graphics window (which is the behaviour I had hoped
and expected to obtain by setting ``plot=F'').

BUT THEN if I lower and then raise the graphics window, poof!!!
the index appears, unwanted, in the plot.

I think a workaround is to issue the identify command
as
> identify(x,y,n=1,col=0)
but still, shouldn't the function work as advertized?

P. S.  I'm sending this message to r-help rather than submitting
a bug report, because when I previously tried the latter I was
met with a deafening silence, and I'm not at all sure that my
bug report got through --- I ***thought*** I had the address right,
and the message didn't bounce .....

You can always check that a bug report arrived by checking
http://bugs.r-project.org. Once in there, someone will take a look
eventually and move it to the relevant category (say "Graphics") and
eventually to "Graphics-fixed". We don't do automated replies on
receipt (should we?).

This particular item doesn't seem to be in there, though. Please
resubmit to r-bugs at r-project.org.
