I would like to preserve point size with different figure sizes using the svg graphics device. #for instance #ggsave("~/Desktop/test2.svg", p ,height=3, width=3) #ggsave("~/Desktop/test2.svg", p ,height=10, width=10) #both look very different to me. What am I missing? Thank you for all of the help in advance.
