similar to: one way to solve bad looking density plots in postscript

This may not actually be an R/Splus problem, but it started off that way ..... ===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+=== Executive summary: ================== Simulations involving extreme value distributions seem to ``work'' when the underlying distribution is exponential(1) or exponential(2) == chi-squared_2, but NOT when the underlying distribution is

Colors are real nice, but the publication I'm preparing these barplots for permits only black and white. The Splus plot options ``dbangle'' (or plain ``angle'') and ``density'' (as on p. 65 of MASS 1st ed.) don't seem to be available in R. Is there another way to do this? I'm running R 1.1.0 on Linux (intel). Thanks.

Hi, I am VERY interested in getting the xfig driver so that I can edit graphical output from R. Searching through the mail archives and reading documentation isn't helping. Is there or isn't there a working driver for this purpose. How can I get it? I tried looking at the development version of the tarballs, but I didn't find anything that looked promising in there. Also, does

Full_Name: Zdenek Valenta Version: 1.9.0. OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (147.231.7.250) I could not copy/save (Trelis) graphics using R version 1.9.0. The graphics displayed normally, but copying/saving it only produced an empty file. Everything works o.k. with R rel. 1.8.1. Best regards, Zdenek Valenta

I have been attempting to create a custom fax cover sheet for a hylafax web front end called avantfax. It requires as input an encapsulated postscript file conaining the glyph definitions and the text to be subsituted as strings having the form XXXX-to-variable or XXXX-from-variable. I have been trying to create a valid eps file using a varitiy of methods with no great succes. However, I ahve

I reported this earlier, and have got reports that others have the same promlem on UNIX machines, so it is not only a windows problem S I file a bug report. The function (boot.stat) given at the end produces a postscript file, which cannot be included correctly in LaTeX. Specifically, the image in LaTeX (when translated by dvips to postscript) becomes very small, not using the bounding box, and

Dear r-bugs, When I create EPS files, they sometimes appear rotated in my LaTeX PDF document and sometimes they don't. Two examples: ## x1.eps is not rotated in LaTeX x <- seq(-1, 1, length=100) postscript("c:/x1.eps", height=3, width=4, horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, paper="special") plot(x, dnorm(x), type="l") dev.off() ## x2.eps is not

Hi, I have found some example of R code : http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mandelbrot_Creation_Animation_%28800x600%29.gif When I run this code on my computer it takes few seconds.

It's possible to overlap an external image (jpg or pdf) with a plot generated with R? Specifying the image as the background of the plot might not be possible... any idea? thanks Meinhard Ploner

hi, I've noticed a small problem trying to include postscript plots generated by R into a latex document. Specifically, the latex package graphicsx allow you to specify the bounding box of the postscript file, so that you can just show _part_ of the postscript file if you tell it to also clip the area outside of the bounding box. I've previously used this LaTeX feature without problems

Can you help me to use Sys.setlocale("LC_NUMERIC", "cs_CZ") (comma as a decimal point) in some useful way, without all the workarounds?

Hi, Using the following simple character vector representing a time series with fractional seconds: datetime <- c("20/09/2011 13:00:59.00", "20/09/2011 13:00:59.02", "20/09/2011 13:00:59.04") Conversion to POSIXct runs into problems; the second element is not interpreted correctly: ---<--------------------cut

Hello R Developers, Dear R-developers, I ran some standard tests with currently (today morning) compiled R release candidate in Linux R 2.12.1 RC (2010-12-13 r53843). Some of these tests used plot.TukeyHSD function. This worked OK on the screen (X11 device), but PostScript file could not be rendered. The following example had the problem with me: postscript(file="tukeyplot.ps")

To the plot experts: when creating a plot containing different lines, each with a special line type, it may happen that the result of 'postscript()' is not readable by ghostview (which may not be an R error, thus not bug report ;-). This is the case when mixing lty as 0:6 and character or even when using lty as character only. Example: postscript("test.ps") plot(1:10,

Hi, I have a query about the maximum length of vector that can be plotted in one go in a postscript driver. Try the following code (in 1.7.0; version details below): t <- seq(from=0, to=4*pi, length=200000) y <- sin(t) postscript(file="o.ps") plot(t, y, type="l") dev.off() If I view the postscript file o.ps in "gv", it takes many seconds before eventually
