Hello, The current xfig device lacks the functionality to set the textspecial flag and use the defaultfont in xfig. This is necessary when you want to export to xfig and use interpreted text (e.g., $ \frac{1}{e}$ gets interpreted by latex). The attached patch adds this functionality. Why would you like to do this?...

Hi, I hope this is the right list for my posting, since I've never posted to any R list before. I'm quite extensively using the xfig graphics device and as far as I figured out this device writes all the objects into xfig layer 100 (based on what I saw in the devPS.c file -if this is the file to output to xfig format - depth 100 is hardcoded). Are the any plans to implement xfig layer depth control in the xfig graphics device...

Full_Name: Chris Haidinyak Version: 2.0.1 & 1.9.0 OS: Linux x86_64 Submission from: (NULL) (139.95.251.9) Hi, I am using R 1.9.0 (on Linux Redhat AS 3 - x86_64) and 2.0.1 (on Linux Fedora Core 3 - x86_64) and am having problems using graphs created with the xfig option. 1.9.0 problem - sometimes the graph output puts the color definitions in the wrong place in the file. According to the xfig program, color definitions must come before any object. For whatever reason, R sometimes produces xfig files with color definitions in the wrong place. Run demo('...

Question for R users under unix: Do you ever edit figs created by R using xfig or some other program? I tried to edit a figure with xfig (a program which I find quite horrible by the way) and it said it couldn't read it in. I guess xfig has no capability of reading postscript files? Can anyone tell me how to do it, or perhaps suggest another freeware structured drawing...

Hi All We want to install packages like xfig and transfig on centos 5.5. We found rpms available but them but it seems there are lot of dependencies for these packages. So we would like to setup yum repo for this. Can anyone suggest trusted baseurl for yum repo? Regards Hersh -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was s...

Hi Folks, I'm trying to locate the source code for a (typical) R graphics device, in order to study how it's done. The underlying reason is that I'm thinking of trying to create a graphics device for 'pic' (the diagram drawing component of [g]troff). I thought the xfig device would be a good place to look, since the format of an xfig file is similar in nature (though very different in detail) to 'pic' code. When, in R, I type "xfig" to see the R code, I get the line .Internal(XFig(file, old$paper, old$family, old$bg, old$fg, old$width,...

Hello ... I tried to generate .fig figures with R, using the xfig() function ...When I open the figures using xfig software under linux ... the foreground color change strangely ... whereas when I display the same figure in R or when I saved it in using postscript() function there is no problem. Any idea about the behavior of the colors when using xfig ?? Than...

I'm using (Linux version) xfig() within a function and then simple matplot() and matline() plots. Although I do not define any bg or fg default color, sometimes all lines in the final fig file are green. The same code works as (I) expected if I use x11() or pdf(). This is what I'm doing: I open 2 devs: xfig() de...

Dear useRs, How does one include graphics created with Xfig with LaTeX fonts into Sweave? If I create a graphic with Xfig with some Computer Modern fonts, I choose to export it as combined PDF and LaTeX. So I get two files, one foo.pdf with the drawings without the text and foo.pdftex with some LaTeX code that ensures the text lands in the right place toge...

I would like to know if a MetaPost device is available or in the plans. A search MetaPost in the documents and list archives did not turn up anything. [I would prefer to use MetaPost when the graphics is to be included in a document that I want in both hard-copy and in pdf formats.] If not, how easy/hard is it to add a new device to R? I caouln't see anything about adding devices in the

Hi All, I've started work on a MetaPost device driver (please don't hold your breath). I've copied the XFig driver and renamed everything and this works, I can open the new metapost() and it works exactly like the xfig driver. Now all I have to do is the actual work! Just one question. There is a magic number in ExtEntries as follows: static const R_ExternalMethodDef ExtEntries[] = { EXTDEF(PicT...

One of the few things that I miss from Splus is the ability of interactively add text and symbols to graphics that have been created by functions. I understand that the best solution in R is to create a graphic file and use external software for editing the graphic. I know what to use in the Win environment, but could anyone suggest what tools would be appropriate under Linux? Thanks Agus Dr.

...etrical shape given as list of points. My need is the following: let's say my shape is a 1 inch large square; how can I plot it with R in a graphic format that gives me an image *exactly* 1 inch large? I tried to set oma, mar and fin parameters, but with no success. I'm currently using the xfig driver for the final images are to be included in latex documents, so I can easily add latex mathematical text and other things; however, other formats (pdf, eps) will do. The piece of code: xfig("R2fig.fig") par(mar=c(0,0,0,0),oma=c(0,0,0,0),fin=c(1,1))#no margin, figure dimension 1x1...

Hi R-helpers! I have a problem with the xfig device and I don't know how to tackle. If anybody can give me some help I will be very thankful: *I have produced a series of figures using a function that makes a call to barplot (in fact I am making Pareto Charts using a function that was kindly provided through this list :-) *I have e...
