[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 Bug Team: I encountered a bug when trying to make a barplot with the pictex output device. The following commands demonstrate the bug: ----------------------------------------------- > errors <- c(3.08, 35.38, 33.85, 20.00, 7.69) > errors [1] 3.08 35.38 33.85 20.00 7.69 > pictex() > barplot(errors) Error: Bad units specified in GConvert, please report! >

Dear all, I am sending a patch for extending pdf device to embed popup text and web links. I implemented this feature by using annotation object, a interactive feature of pdf. You can see a sample code for using this feature in the following, and sample pdf is in

Using R-1.1.1 on RedHatLinux 6.2. I've made some progress, succeeded in outputting bitmap, jpeg, and png files. Yipee. I did them with this command: > dev2bitmap("whatever.bmp",res=300) > dev.print(png, file="myplot.png", width=480, height=480) > dev.print(jpeg, file="myplot.jpg", width=480, height=480) > dev.print(pictex,

The R-1.2.1 builds have gone fairly smoothly on most of my UNIX architectures, but there were many warnings reported by the picky SGI compiler that could be eliminated in future releases. Generally, I have found the SGI compilers very helpful in ferreting out portability problems, unused and/or obsolete variables, unexpected datatype coercions, etc., and they compile faster than any other

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

Hello, I have a few questions now: 1. How can I move data the following way: I have 2 variables: one two 1 5 ^ 3 4 | 1 3 | 4 4 | Now I want to move the two one arround (sorry I don't know how to say that in english). That means: I want to move the first item at the end of my column and move the second at the first place, the third at the second, and so on. You can see it at

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-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

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.

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:

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

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

On some systems (alpha), tick marks don't appear on plots. The easiest way to see the problem is something like: > plot(0:1,axes=FALSE) > axis(1,1:2) The problem is in X11_Line(...) from .../src/unix/devX11.c, which is so short I've included the whole function below: static void X11_Line(double x1, double y1, double x2, double y2, int coords, DevDesc *dd) {

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
