search for: 3cm

Hi I want to draw sth in a pdf file with a predefined defined size. Say a 5cm x 3cm rectangle (a ruler): pdf("rect.pdf", paper="a4") plot(c(1,5,5,1,1),c(1,1,3,3,1),asp=1,axes="n") dev.off() but how do I fix that one unit is 1cm? Thanks thomas

...of the darkblue box is fine, but I cannot yet control the size of the plot area (although http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Graphics/Basics/mar-oma/index.htm helped me a lot). And seeting the mar to zero (#) works in a R figure, but not in a pdf. Why? I already asked ("draw a 5cm x 3cm rectangle") a related question three days ago, but I was unable to get a more complicated example in the grid package (solution there) running. Thanks for giving hints, Thomas

...i, I'm trying to build a vector of latex commands. However, I need the command strings to begin with a backslash "\". I have: test <- c('foo','bar') and I need to rebuild the array, encapsulating the text items with latex stuff, like this: paste("\parbox[b]{3cm}{", test, "}", fill=TRUE) Actually, cat() prints the string fine if one uses double backslashes. However, I can't save the result from cat() back to a vector. And when I use cat() inside the latex function from the Hmisc package, I only get errors... The (not so) funny thing is...

Dear r-help, Please, be so kind, tell me what does mean the parameter of layout.show()? I use R 1.6.2... Windows NT 4.0 Unfortunately I cannot understand phrases from the help "n: number of figures to plot." what figures? "`layout.show(n)' plots (part of) the current layout, namely the outlines of the next `n' figures." what figures?
