Dear list members, I can't figure out how get 'xyplot' or 'dotplot' in the 'lattice' package to respect the 'lwd' value for specifying the border with for *symbols* (for lines it works fine). Example: ----- # Base graphics works fine (gives a 'fat? circle) plot(5, cex=10, pch=21, lwd=10) # But 'xyplot' or 'dotplot' doesn't

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

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

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

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

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

Hi all We are pretty new to R here and trying to achieve something that we believe is possible but it?s not easy to work out how to do it. We are producing scatterplot matrices for e.g. 10 variables. What we would like to do is superimpose 2D kernel density estimators on top of each plot so that we end up with a scatterplot matrix of 2D kernel density (contour) plots. The kernel density plots

Dear R People: I have used the "latex" function from the Hmisc package and it is just great! However, I have a new question regarding that function: is there an option for summary(lm(y~x)), please? There are options for different types of objects, but I didn't see one for that. Maybe I just missed it. Thanks in advance! R for Windows Version 2.3.1 Sincerely, Erin Hodgess

Hi, There is a question that I am confused. I have a set of data like this: hsa-miR-205--GATA3 0.797882767 1.08E-13 hsa-miR-205--ITGB4 0.750217593 1.85E-11 hsa-miR-187--PGF 0.797604155 3.24E-11 hsa-miR-205--SERPINB5 0.744124886 3.28E-11 hsa-miR-205--PBX1 0.734487224 7.89E-11 hsa-miR-205--MCC 0.72499934 1.80E-10 hsa-miR-205--WNT5B 0.717705259 3.33E-10 hsa-miR-200c--PKN2 0.721746815

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

[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

i've seen various references to this message in the list archive, but none which really match my scenario. i'm running 0.9.28 on ubuntu edgy. of course, i'm new at wine -- so this could be user error. i'm trying to install TaxCut 2006, from the CDROM: $ ls .wine/dosdevices/d\:/ autorun.inf* df0000exe.manifest* taxcut.exe* temporaryitems/ data/

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

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

Dear Folks-- Is there a data frame analog to sparse matrices? I am working with a panel data set that has a large number of variables that are redefined repeatedly or exist for only a few years (out of 48). In my current structure, where variables are columns and rows are years, more than 90 percent of the cells and more than 3/4 of the total size of my file are NAs. I am wondering if there is

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 all, I'm trying to improve the documentation I provide my R packages, and to that end I'd like to find out what you think is great R documentation. I'm particularly interested in function documentation, but great vignettes, websites or book are also of interest. What is your favourite bit of R documentation, and why? Thanks, Hadley

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[] =
