HI: I have tried to find a way in which to export/save graphs via the command line. I know i can right click on it and save it as wmf etc. But I was wandering if there is a function such as Splus' export.graph Thanks >From Alberto Nettel's Desk University of Calgary Math & Stats Department.

Hi, I recently encountered an error using the command "savePlot" when trying to save the third of 3 open graph windows. After successfully saving and closing the first two windows I receive an "Invalid device number in savePlot" error. The following is copied and pasted from an example session to illustrate the behaviour: > windows() > hist(rnorm(100)) > windows()

Hi all, In the package rtlu, I use the function savePlot. It is convenient since it let the user decide in which graphic format he wants his graph to be export. But when I run R CMD check, I get the following message : > rtlu(V1,fileOutput="First.tex",textBefore="\\section{Variable 1 to 3}",graphName="V1") Error in savePlot(filename = nomBarplot, type = type)

R-help, Whenever I try to save a plot with "savePlot" the file is not stored in my hard disk with the selected format. Several formats are set and none of them works. I just get the file name with missing extension and it can't be open with programs like Paint and Microsoft Photo Editor Th only one able to open it is "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" plot(rnorm(10))

Hi R, Does 'savePlot' will not work in the batch mode? I get the below error: > x=c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7) > hist(x) > savePlot("D:\\Test\\histo",type="jpeg") Error in savePlot("D:\\Test\\histo", type = "jpeg") : can only copy from 'windows' devices Execution halted The same works in the interactive mode. What

Buenas tardes: Hasta ahora he utilizado savePlot() en ejecuciones de R en Windows, donde lo que hago es grabar la ventana de gráficos mediante dev.cur() en formato pdf. Concretamente éste es el código: > savePlot(filename = ruta_pdf, type = "pdf", device = dev.cur(), restoreConsole = TRUE) Este comando está dentro de un bucle de "n" ejecuciones, por lo que guardo un pdf por

Hi all, What is the right portable way to save graphics in batch mode? Remarks: 1. Problem is STFWed and RTFMed. In particular a short note about png() is found in R-FAQ. In fact, there were stated that png() is not reliable under Linux in batch mode. 2. savePlot under windows is quite convenient, but not supplied under Linux. 3. pdf() + postscript() < savePlot()

Hi, A Windows user asked me a question and I believe this is a bug of R 3.0.0 under Windows: > plot(1:10) > savePlot('test.wmf') Error in .External(C_savePlot, device, filename, type, restoreConsole) : Incorrect number of arguments (4), expecting 3 for 'savePlot' > sessionInfo() R version 3.0.0 (2013-04-03) Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) locale: [1]

Here's a fairly minimal-case example in which the saved EPS does not match the screen. The error comes when using bquote(.(i)) instead of bquote(1), as demonstrated by the two minimally different cases below. Very strange. Any clues as to why? #---------------- begin ------------------- # Version A. X axis labels have subscripts as constants. EPS is correct. windows() layout( matrix( 1:2 ,

Hello, When I use savePlot(filename="xy",type="eps") or savePlot(filename="xy",type="wmf") , I get the following error: Error in grid.Call("L_textBounds", as.graphicsAnnot(x$label), x$x, x$y, : Polygon edge not found (zero-width or zero-height?) This doesn't occur when I change the type to "jpeg" or "bmp". Can

I want to plot the unstadardized version of a normal plot.  Can you explain why that is not working? Dev.set(1) xcrit=-1.645 cord.x <- c(-3,seq(-3,xcrit,0.01),xcrit) cord.y <- c(0,dnorm(seq(-3,xcrit,0.01)),0)            # what does final 0 do here? curve(dnorm(x,0,1),xlim=c(-3,3),main='Normal PDF') polygon(cord.x,cord.y,col='orange')

Greetings, I am a new user of R but a long time fan of S (Splus) and have installed R version 0.65.1 on a Windows NT machine. I would like to save plots as gif files and have been using savePlot() with some success. I found that savePlot would not work without modification, namely decrementing the device by 1 before calling the internal routine that does the conversion. Once that change was

Plaintive squeak: Why the change? Some OS's and desktops use the extension, so forgetting it causes trouble. The new default filename keeps a filetype (as before) but the user now has to type a filetype twice (once as the type, once as extension) to get the same effect fo rtheir own filenames. And the extension isn't then checked for consistency with valid file types, so it can be

Hey, I'm running R in ubuntu 10.10 (R-2.15.0) and when saving a plot i get the following error message: > plot(1:10) > savePlot("test.png",type="png") Error in savePlot("test.png", type = "png") : can only copy from 'X11(type="*cairo")' devices > Thanks in advance [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello All, I am trying to open all files within a folder and create multiple histograms from each file, *and* have it save with the original file name plus some new information. The way I have it set up right now, I keep saving over each new graph. I can turn the history on and see them all, but I want them all to save as unique files as well. Idealy they would be "filename CHN 1mm Length

This occurred after I installed R x64 2.13.1 on Windows: savePlot("95%.winners.wmf") saves the file as: "951nners.wmf" Is this the correct behavior, or have I bungled something?

Greetings R-wizards: For historical reasons I have filenames with the character "?" and have successfully used "\u00e2" in its place, with the hoped-for result on all my on-screen plots. However since R2.7.0 I have trouble with savePlot() when the file name includes that character as it does in this example: savePlot(paste("diagnostic ? vs a ", file.label,

Dear all, I tried: > iris > species.n <- as.numeric(Species) > plot(iris, col = species.n) > savePlot(filename="IrisTestPlot", type="png") and got the error message: Fehler in savePlot(filename = "IrisTestPlot", type = "png") : kann nur aus 'X11(type="*cairo")' Devices kopieren (sorry, I have a german version of R).

Hi all, I am using savePlot in a loop for saving several graph but I get some graph in 553x552, some other in 1920x1119. How comes ? My data are almost all the same (same label, same xlim / ylim, almost same data. Only the color changes). I save them in bmp. Thanks for your help. Christophe

Hi, I'd been using R in the past and recently installed it on a new windoze 7 machine. There have been many issues with compatibility and 32/64 bit apps etc and I did find on google on isolated complaint that saveplot failed in scripts a long time ago. R seems to work fine except script-based plot saving as pdf has not worked. I have tried the following, none of which seem to function, xyz
