Hi, In the FAQ for Mac http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html there is 7.2 Saving the image You can can (???) the content of the quartz device window into a PDF file. This is not explained! This is a very simple way to export high quality graphics from R into other applications on Mac OS X graphics is PDF based (so are almost all applications available). However, this process

Hi, I need some help figuring out how to save or copy graphs I've created in the Quartz screen. I'm using a Mac, Mountain Lion OS, and have version 2.15.2. When I save a graphic, the process either crashes R, or if it saves the file, when I open it, it is a blank file or I get an error message that says "The file Rplot.pdf could not be opened." When I try to copy the graphic

I would like to use setTimeLimit to abort operations that are stuck waiting (idle) after n seconds. Below a toy example in which Sys.sleep is a placeholder call that is idle: testlimit <- function(){ setTimeLimit(elapsed=3, transient=TRUE); Sys.sleep(10); } system.time(testlimit()); However this is giving inconsistent results. On windows and in r-studio server (linux) the call is

Hola, Por favor, alguien que use MacOS, ¿podría hacerme un favor?: se trata de lanzar este código que indico a continuación: quartz(title="Ventada de prueba", width=8.27, height=11.69, dpi=85) plot(1:10) Observación: me refiero a lanzarlo desde el Rgui (no desde RStudio). Luego se trataría de guardar como pdf desde el menú, y enviarme ese pdf. Necesito comprobar que queda en

I ran this script in a source file on my Mac: library(lattice) year <- 1900:2000 dollars <- (year-1899)^2 plot(year,dollars) quartz("year") histogram(~dollars) The first plot appears in Quartz 2. The second quartz window, named year, opens but the histogram doesn't appear. However, when I copy and paste this script directly into the R console, both quartz windows (Quartz 2

Hi, I'm new to R. I'm using a Mac OS X 10.5 and R 2.7.0. I'm trying to change the font family for a plot in a quartz device. Simply passing the desired font by using the family argument works with other devices, but not with quartz. Am I missing anything? I've already checked the docs for quartz and quartzFonts, but didn't find a solution. Any help much appreciated.

Hello all, I am using quartz (on OS X obviously) to produce PDFs and PNGs from my plots, for later inclusion in LaTeX. I am typically using something like: plot(0) dev.print(quartz, file="foo.pdf", width=5, height=3) dev.print(quartz, file="foo.png", width=5, height=3, dpi=72) I want the sizes of the PDF and PNG to be *equal* in *inches*, which works with dpi=72. However,

I encountered a problem that I don't know where to or how to solve this. I can put Chinese text to a Quartz window. There is no problem to show the correct Chinese text string. However, when this Quartz window is saved, and open by Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, the Chinese text will become ........ In order to show/preserve my Chinese text in Quartz window, do I have to set up some parameters?

Dear List, I have switched from Linux to OS X, and I find the R interface there really nice. I am using Emacs+ESS, and the quartz device. My only problem is that 1. I can't move the quartz window, whenever I go above it I see a spinning rainbow circle (AFAIK that means "I am busy" or "can't touch me" in OS X) 2. Once something gets in front of it, I cannot

Hi. I'm trying to run ActiveWorlds Browser under Wine, I'm getting errors with Quartz.dll can anyone help me please. Bob Wilkinson.

Hi R world, I am such a newbie, with only 4-5 days of R experience. I did a search in forum history but couldn't find a solution to my problem... Sorry if it's obvious: I managed to draw a barplot (yey!) with xlabels of 'long' names (filenames, to be particular). To make them readable, I place them perpendicular to the axis (las=2). When I do that, however, these names don't

Dear, The quartz device doesn't work in R version 2.7.2 (2008-08-25), on my MacBook Pro. For example, when I just type 'demo(graphics)', the quartz window stays empty and the clockwise time indicator keeps on running in the R window. What should I do to fix this bug? Thanks in advance, Vanessa

Hi, i trying to run wine within OS X (10.4.8) with XDarwin. Bad i have the following problem. I've been able to run some games/apps but the display is very sluggish und far away from smooth. With Crossover the display is very smooth. I think the cause of this is the way over X11. So i wanted to know if there is an Quartz Driver for wine?

Hi all, I use a mac and was trying to reset my quartz options. However, every time I restart R, the options are gone and I have to type them again. Any idea as to what's going wrong? Thanks, Premal

Full_Name: Martin Renner Version: 1.6.0 OS: MacOS X 10.2.1 Submission from: (NULL) (134.153.109.176) Opening a new graphics device with quartz () produces a quartz window but it cannot be resized, there's no red close-button and R usually crashes within the next 20 seconds (unexpectedly quit). Also, I can't copy this window (copy does not do anything, old clipboard is not replaced).

Hello everybody. Recently I update from R6.3 to R7.0 on Mac OS X, and an ugly gray grid appear when I use the function image() or pdf() What I am doing wrong? Thank's for your help, ?ngel.

I just tried rendering a plot of 166 data point (time series) on my PPC mac, and compared it with the same data rendered by Mathematica. The R plotting is very slow to paint and repaint, compared to Mathematica. This also makes it extremely awkward to use in other documentation such as pdfLatex. On closer inspection, it looks like the Mathematica plot is just a polyline, while in R it is a
