I run into some problems when trying to convert units using Hershey-Fonts: R chrashes. > library(grid) > label <- "some text" > pushViewport(viewport(gp=gpar(fontfamily="HersheySerif"))) > convertHeight(stringHeight(label), unitTo="mm") *** caught segfault *** address 0xadc838f8, cause 'memory not mapped' Traceback: 1:

Dear all, I'm trying to get a series of lattice levelplots to appear in viewports in a particular way but struggling to exert fine control over their appearence. There are two conditions: (a) I only want the levelplot to appear (I don't want axes, colour key, etc) in the viewport and (b) I want the levelplot to expand to the maximum allowable space in the viewport while observing

There was too many spelling mistakes in my original post so I have decided to re-submit it. So here is it Dear R users, I am trying to determine how many characters can be displayed within the width of an open grid viewport. Unfortunately, the arithmetic operation that seems obvious in this case is not permitted with unit objects (see example below). Although there is a brute force way to get

Hello! I first would like to compliment the authors of grid on what has been a wonderfully useful package for me. Now, my question: Is there any way I can specify the size of some grid.text using grid units? I must label the regions of a plot. The regions can be either very small or very large, so I would like to label each by fitting its text to the size of the region in question. Ideally, I

Hi all, I just used power.t.test() in Version 1.9.0 beta (2004-03-31) today under FC1. The following is the output: > power.t.test(delta = .5, power = .95, type = "paired") $n [1] 53.94062 $delta [1] 0.5 $sd [1] 1 $sig.level [1] 0.05 $power [1] 0.95 $alternative [1] "two.sided" $note [1] "n is number of *pairs*, sd is std.dev. of *differences* within

OK. Deepayan sent me the copy of a chat on another list between John Fox, Duncan Murdoch and Paul Murrell. The bug in the gui.exe looks like being reported with an example to turn it before he has been definetely fixed. Just try: trellis.device("win.metafile", file="test.emf") data(iris) cloud(Sepal.Length ~ Petal.Length * Petal.Width | Species, data = iris, screen = list(x =

Hi I''m pleased to announce the release of wxruby2 version 1.9.0. This is a significant milestone for wxruby as this is the first release that we consider near to production quality. We hope that this 1.9.x series of releases will soon lead to a stable wxruby 2.0. = INSTALLATION The easiest way to install is using a ready-to-use binary gem for your platform: gem install wxruby Or

Dear list, On Fedora 8 I downloaded the beta version of R via svn. make and make check-all worked fine, but make vignettes is failing with: make[1]: Entering directory `/home/gavin/R/2-7-patched/build/src/library' building/updating vignettes for package 'grid' ... processing 'displaylist.Snw' /usr/bin/texi2dvi: pdflatex exited with bad status, quitting.

Hi, some change during the last 10 days breaks code where slots of an object are changed globally: setClass("mylist", contains = "list") setClass("dummy", representation = representation( a = "mylist")) foo1 = function(i, x) { mydummy@a[[i]] <<- x ### change a slot } foo2 = function() { ### define an object mydummy <<-

I've rolled up R-1.9.0.tgz a short while ago. This is a new version with a number of new features, most notably a substantial reorganization of the standard packages, a major update of the grid package, and the fact that underscore can now be used as a regular character in variable names. See below for further changes. Because of the disturbances at the machine that hosted the CVS archives,

I recently uploaded a developmental version of the Matrix package, Matrix_0.6-1.tar.gz, to CRAN where it is in the src/contrib/1.9.0/Other directory. It requires some of the packages that will appear in R-1.9.0. This version marks a major redesign of the Matrix package to use S4 classes and methods and to incorporate sparse matrix manipulations using routines from TAUCS

Hi all, I am struggling with remote R sessions and a (I suspect) locale related encoding problem: Using the X11 device (X11forwarding enabled), whenever I try to plot something containing umlauts using ggplot2, I am seeing sth like ,---- | Error in grid.Call(L_stringMetric, as.graphicsAnnot(x$label)) : | invalid use of -61 < 0 in 'X11_MetricInfo' `---- Using base graphics is fine

Dear R-helpers, for the first time since R-0.6x I have to face installation problem. I switched to a new Linux-box (SuSE 9.0) and installed as many libraries as possible. R-1.9.0.tgz went to /usr/local/lib and was extracted without problems. After running properly for a while, 'configure' (called without any switches) gave "configure: creating ./config.status" which was

Hi, I recently created a function which uses grid with a viewport constructed with grid.layout() to position four plots on a plot device. My question is what's the best way to programatically traverse each element of the viewport? The grid is 5x5 and the four plots occupy positions (2,2), (4,2), (2,4), and (4,4). Here's the viewport code: pushViewport( viewport(

Hi folks, For ubuntu specs and for a better desktop integration of compiz, I made some patchs and plugins. Focus prevention is now in main stream, and really better can i made :) First the workspace and terminal keybinding patch. Since my last email I updated the patch. http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/compiz-patch/91-workspaces-terminal-keybindings.patch It adds the support for vertical

Hello, I created several plot with ggplot2 dev mode. Now I want to combine the plots in a grid e.g. 2x2 with a fixed size of the output. What I am doing at the moment is: grid.newpage() pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(nrow=2, ncol=2, widths = unit(c(7.5,6.5), "cm"), heights = unit(rep(5, 2), "cm")))) print(plot1, vp = viewport(layout.pos.row = 1,

Hi Deepayan and everyone, I need to add a common legend to a group of latice graphs, I have tried different ways using viewport and grid.draw without success. Here is what I have: plot.new() library(grid) library('IDPmisc') print(plot1, split=c(1,1,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot4, split=c(2,1,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot2, split=c(1,2,2,4), more=TRUE) print(plot5, split=c(2,2,2,4),

Short form: How do I transform the output of grid.locator() (or grid.locator(unit='npc')) to the native (or npc) coordinates of a viewport other than the top-level viewport? Thanks in advance. -Ben Long form: I would like the user to be able to click anywhere on the R graphics window. I would then like to figure out which leaf viewport the user clicked in and compute the native
