Hi, I wrote a simple master function, run(), that has inside six qplot functions. The goal is to type run() and have all six graphs appear as separate windows so that I can copy them into PowerPoint for a client. When I type run(), only the last graph appears, the first five apparently being overwritten. How do I get all six in separate windows, ready for copying? By the way, is the a way to create a PowerPoint deck directly in R the way you can in S-Plus? Thanks, Walt -- ________________________ Walter R.

Try dev.new() after each graph is generated.
Example code from my setup (adapted a bit to fit your situation):
Alternate Method 1: Generate images and insert into PPT
png(file = "chart1.png", width=800, height=800)
#do something pretty
dev.off()
Alternate Method 2: Generate images with new windows
dev.new()
#do something pretty
Check out the library R2PPT to answer your question about interaction
with PPT.
Also, don't know if you're using the new Offce 2007, the default fonts
with Calibri, etc. will be different (R generates them in the default
font Arial). You can set it so that you match Office2K7 (or any other
font of your choice) for consistency with the graphs generated in R and
the rest of your presentation by doing the following:
windowsFonts(calibri = windowsFont("Calibri"))
windowsFonts(consolas = windowsFont("Consolas"))
dev.new()
par(family="calibri") #Office 2K7 default font
#do something pretty

But as you can see from the other post, it can even be done automatically. Alain ----- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Alain F. Zuur First author of: 1.
