There appears to be a bug in the R xfig() driver. When I run a simple example, eg > data(InsectSprays) > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray") the boxplot is fine.

Hi R-helpers! I have a problem with the xfig device and I don't know how to tackle. If anybody can give me some help I will be very thankful: *I have produced a series of figures using a function that makes a call to barplot (in fact I am making Pareto Charts using a function that was kindly provided through this list :-) *I have exported the figures to xfig in order to give them a

There's something (probably a lot) missing in my understanding of plotmath. The LaTeX code for what I'm trying to produce is \log(-\log(\hat R)) My (probably hopeless) attempt at it uses nested group()s: expression(plain(log) * group("(", -plain(log)*group("(", \hat(R), ")"), ")")) Can anyone do it right for me, please? Thanks, Ted. Dr E.A.

I'll be teaching a graduate course on (the analysis of) experimental designs next year, using R. Does anyone know of a suitable textbook? (Venables and Ripley MASS Ch6 on Linear Models covers roughly the right material, but at a level that is way too difficult for my students.) Sorry if this has been asked before. I've looked through the archives and found Julian Faraway's book, but

I would like to do a logistic multiple regression on a binary variate, with what Genstat calls an offset, ie a regression variable with the coefficient constrained=1. I'm far from home and have Splus but not R here, but any information from either source would be very welcome. I'd hate to have to go back to using Genstat . . . Thanks, Ted. --------------- Dr E.A.

I'm looking for something like Brian Ripley's glmmPQL that will handle multinomial data. Does anyone know of anything? Thanks, Ted. -- Dr E.A.

Hi there, I want to create plots with some kind of 'complex' axis labelling of the form $\dot{V}$ and integrate those plots into a LaTeX document. What is the best way to go? I've figured out, that the 'plotmath' commands are somewhat limited (at least I wasn't able to get the $\dot{V}$ generated) and that plots with 'plotmath'-axes wouldn't export

Full_Name: Chris Haidinyak Version: 2.0.1 & 1.9.0 OS: Linux x86_64 Submission from: (NULL) (139.95.251.9) Hi, I am using R 1.9.0 (on Linux Redhat AS 3 - x86_64) and 2.0.1 (on Linux Fedora Core 3 - x86_64) and am having problems using graphs created with the xfig option. 1.9.0 problem - sometimes the graph output puts the color definitions in the wrong place in the file. According to

Hi, I hope this is the right list for my posting, since I've never posted to any R list before. I'm quite extensively using the xfig graphics device and as far as I figured out this device writes all the objects into xfig layer 100 (based on what I saw in the devPS.c file -if this is the file to output to xfig format - depth 100 is hardcoded). Are the any plans to implement xfig layer

Hello, The current xfig device lacks the functionality to set the textspecial flag and use the defaultfont in xfig. This is necessary when you want to export to xfig and use interpreted text (e.g., $ \frac{1}{e}$ gets interpreted by latex). The attached patch adds this functionality. Why would you like to do this? - Use math in labels (e.g., name your variables $r_{xy}$, do a

Hello ... I tried to generate .fig figures with R, using the xfig() function ...When I open the figures using xfig software under linux ... the foreground color change strangely ... whereas when I display the same figure in R or when I saved it in using postscript() function there is no problem. Any idea about the behavior of the colors when using xfig ?? Thanks in advance Christophe Grova

I'm using (Linux version) xfig() within a function and then simple matplot() and matline() plots. Although I do not define any bg or fg default color, sometimes all lines in the final fig file are green. The same code works as (I) expected if I use x11() or pdf(). This is what I'm doing: I open 2 devs: xfig() dev.set(2) layout(mat1) xfig() dev.set(3)

Dear useRs, How does one include graphics created with Xfig with LaTeX fonts into Sweave? If I create a graphic with Xfig with some Computer Modern fonts, I choose to export it as combined PDF and LaTeX. So I get two files, one foo.pdf with the drawings without the text and foo.pdftex with some LaTeX code that ensures the text lands in the right place together with the drawing. I'm supposed

I've been looking at the ellipse package I co-wrote with Ed Chow for S-Plus a few years ago, cleaning up the documentation now it's been ported to R (by Jesus Frias, thanks IOsu!) and I'm back as the maintainer. One of the things it did which we thought was kind of cute at the time was to use a few lines of Postscript code to define a font, where the glyphs were ellipses of various

Question for R users under unix: Do you ever edit figs created by R using xfig or some other program? I tried to edit a figure with xfig (a program which I find quite horrible by the way) and it said it couldn't read it in. I guess xfig has no capability of reading postscript files? Can anyone tell me how to do it, or perhaps suggest another freeware structured drawing program for use in

Hello I'm using the xfig-function in R to export figures in fig-format. To use these exported figures in LaTeX, I first run a fig2dev to get a pstex and pstex_t file. However, in order to get the right pstex_t file (that is, with the text of the original figure) I have to change the font and special text variables in the fig files. I would like R to do this font changing job, but I can't
