similar to: Bad Units Bug in barplot with pictex output device. (PR#220)

Hello all, My question is how do I write a multilevel regression model of individual responses to environmental predictors that accounts for social interactions between individuals. i.e.; 1) Individual response is nested within a group response. 2) The same environmental predictors apply to both hierarchical levels but, 3) Lower level slope/intercept are also affected by high-level response.

running pictex() plot(1:11,(-5:5)^2, type='b', main="Simple_Example_Plot") dev.off() (as in the pictex example, but with underscores instead of spaces). the TeX file contains \put {Simple_Example_Plot} [lB] <0.00pt,0.00pt> at 124.00 275.33 the underscores have a special meaning in TeX, so they should be quoted or converted to dashes. -- Sam Steingold

dear R users, I got a problem in using the pictex device for graphics. It seems to me that R uses some special commands, because my LaTex (Miktex, latest version) didn?t know the used syntax (e.g. the comand "setcoordinatesystem"). Is there a special .sty-file for the usage of pictex files created by R? If so, where can I receive it? best Karsten --

Got an error trying to run the PicTeX graphics driver in Version 0.50 Beta (Sept 29, 1997) of R under Windows 95. When I executed pictex() I got the following error message: Error in device("pictex", as.character(c(file, bg, fg)), c(width, height, : unable to start device pictex > It looks like the command exists but not the code to implement it.

I can't get LaTeX to recognize the output from the pictex device driver. Are these commands for some special latex package which I don't know about? ************************************************ * I.White * * ICAPB, University of Edinburgh * * Ashworth Laboratories, West Mains Road * * Edinburgh EH9 3JT

Hi everyone, I have just received a bug from one of my students. It concerns the pictex command to produce plots in latex format. It seems to add lines on the graph even in the most simplest cases. For example, try the following quadratic curve: plot(1:11,(-5:5)^2,type="b",main="Simple Example Plot") Now, saving the plot with the following command:

The example at ?pictex does not work (the driver apparently uses 'rotatebox') for me as stated. It did compile after including the graphicsx package. A MWE is at the help page for pictex. I tried to get in touch with Valerio but his email bounced. Probably we want to add a \usepackage{graphicsx} to the help page and try to track down Valerio. Cheers, Kyle This is pdfTeX, Version

Is the pictex graphics device known not to support color? In R 2.0.1 Patched (2004-11-17), it produced very pretty output: ## pictex(file = "modern-metatheonomy.tex", bg = "transparent"); ## plotData(data); ## dev.off() ... but it appears to have ignored all color information. __________ Steve Rowley <steve.rowley at sanofi-aventis.com> Cambridge, MA: (617) 768-4054

Greetings- I've got some plots I'd like to include in a LaTeX document; specifically, I'd like to include them via pictex() so I can edit some of the particulars directly. However, an odd problem is coming up: a diagonal line is drawn from bottom-left to upper-right when using pictex(). This does not happen using X11() or postscript() with the same series of commands. Any ideas why

[I'm refiling this one due to mailer config messup] I get an error whenever I try to plot a histogram in pictex. The error doesn't occur for X11 or postscript. > x<-c(1,2,3) > pictex() > hist(x) Error: Bad units specified in GConvert, please report! platform i686-unknown-linux arch i686 os linux

Dear All, I'm trying to draw a TeX histogram with the following pair of commands, pictex(file = "realhisto.tex") hist(Peaklist$V3,xlab="Height $z/\\ut{mm}$",ylab="Probability density $\\phi{}(z-z_0)/(1/\\ut{mm})$") However, in the resulting file realhisto.tex, I get, for example \put {Height \$z/\ut\{mm\}\$} [lB] <0.00pt,0.00pt> at 136.13 9.17 when

Greetings- I'm aware that there's no documentation for pictex available easily (that is, without purchasing it). I'm wondering if someone can help me with a simple task. When generating a plot using pictex() from R, one of the commands I use is mtext("Dimension 2: L=xxxx", side=2, line=3) when using X11(), this appears vertically along the Y axis; when using pictex(), it

Hi, I am very new to R and trying to bring my plot of residuals to my LaTex document, and seems as I need some help. I first tried the example from the help file, e.g. pictex(file="model1.tex", width=5, height=4) plot(1:11,(-5:5)^2, type='b', main="Simple Example Plot") dev.off() this worked fine in LaTex when I did : \centerline{\input{Rplots.tex}} However, with

Dear R-users It is me again with my interminables questions... This time it is about "pictex". I understood that pictex allows us to put our graph in a latex file I have try the function: > pictex (file=...) and the answer was: "pictex" not found... Does it mean that it is not an R-function yet? Thank you for any feedback. Halima from Leiden

Dear R People, I want to include a barplot corresponding to a simple discrete probability distribution in a LaTeX document. I decided to use the pictex driver. After a certain amount of messing about, I came up the stuff below. It does not look too bad, however, there is one very obvious piece of weirdness, ie. the y axis terminates at 0.1 and does not extend down further. I tried to adjust this

I'm trying to use the pictex driver for bargraphs, and the shading isn't showing up. Is there any way to get some sort of shading in the plots? A hatch or stipple would be fine, too; just some way to differentiate the bars. The postscript driver won't do, since I'm trying to embed this in a LaTeX document which I'll use pdflatex on and \includegraphics for pdftex doesn't

Dear R, I'm trying to plot the first principle component of an analysis vs the first variable but am having trouble. I have no trouble doing the initial plot but have difficulty thereafter. First I want to highlight some points of the following data set list(running) [[1]] X100m X200m X400m X800m X1500m X5K X10K Marathon Argentina 10.39 20.81 46.84 1.81

At the cost of breaking the thread I'm going to change your subject and replace 'Principle' by 'Principal'. I just can't stand it any longer... OK, here is how I would solve your other problems. First put > wh <- c("USA", "New Zealand", "Dominican Republic", "Western Samoa", "Cook Islands") > ind

Forescasting using predict() in an object of class arimax when there is an outlier IO in the model. Hi R users I have a problem when a use the predict() method in an object of class arimax ( These objects are the results of the implementation of the function arimax() from the TSA library) . The object is a model of a time series in which I identified an IO oulier at the element 33 of the serie
