similar to: package install error in CentOS

Dear all, I am trying to use the Cairo package to avoid some X11 issues and it works very well. However, when I want to add a legend to my plots, I receive an error message from Cairo: > library(Cairo) > CairoPNG(file="test.png") > plot(1:100) > dev.off() null device 1 This works fine. But: > CairoPNG(file="test.png") > plot(1:100) >

G'day all, I am working on a new FreeBSD 8.0 Server (remotely located), and have installed (now several times) R 2.11.0 but I cannot get any graphic outputs (everything else seems to be happening fine...) During install I have noticed and checked that png, jpeg, cairo etc libraries are available - here is the build output : R is now configured for amd64-portbld-freebsd8.0 Source

Hi, on Windows XP Pro with R version 2.7.1 Patched (2008-06-27 r46012) the 'Cairo' and the 'EBImage' packages does not play well together. Loading EBImage before Cairo cause the following to happen: # Rterm --vanilla > library(EBImage); > library(Cairo) Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) : unable to load shared library

I am trying to install the Cairo package on a linux machine, the Cairo package did not install correctly (could not find cairo.h), I am new to R and linux any help on the installation would be great. Below are output from trying to install the Cairo package, thought this might help. > install.packages("Cairo") Warning in install.packages("Cairo") : argument

G'day all, I am trying to install the cairo package on FreeBSD and receiving an error to do with Makevars - (I'm not very good at this stuff) so here is my various bits of information. I guess this is a problem with a missing library, but I have just been through a lot of grief trying to get png and jpeg to work (they do now work!), so I'm not sure where to go for this. R

Hi All, I have been experiencing a strange issue ever since I upgraded my R and the packages. I cannot plot anything to the CairoPNG device.For an example:> Cairo(600, 600, file="plot.png", type="png", bg="white")> plot(1:10)> dev.off()will create an empty plot.png file. I am running R 2.12.1 (32bit) on Windows 7 (64bit). ----------------------------->

Dear All, I am running Debian testing on my box and I have R 2.9.0 installed from the standard repositories. I downloaded the package source from http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Cairo/index.html but when I try to install it on my system, this is what I get $ sudo R CMD INSTALL Cairo_1.4-4.tar.gz * Installing to library ?/usr/local/lib/R/site-library? * Installing *source* package ?Cairo?

Hi all, I'm currently preparing some figures that will be submitted to PloS One. In their guidelines they state that they will only accept figures in tiff or eps format, with the warning that eps figures will be converted to tiff format ( see http://www.plosone.org/static/figureGuidelines.action ). Because of this conversion, I figured I'd generate tiff-format figures from the beginning.

There is an issue with the default svg device on a centos workstation that I am using. It does not result in an error, but it produces malformed svg images. Exactly the same script works just fine on an ubuntu box. On Ubuntu I am using R binary that comes with maverick, on centos I am using the latest R binary from EPEL. Other than that both boxes are pretty clean, with only the dependencies

Dear R-users, though i have successfully installed Cairo_1.4-5 package on my Ubuntu machine, i become the following error message: Error in png(plot_name, width = 1600, height = 1200) : 'type = "cairo"' requires cairo >= 1.2 : try 'type = "cairo1"' By using png(plot_name, width = 1600, height = 1200,type = "cairo1") i become Warning message: In

Dear R-Helpers, I have a problem with displaying the greek "beta" symbol in PDF files using Cairo library - it displays as an empty box. The same also happens for a dash symbol in subscript. Both symbols are displayed correctly if the plot is produced on screen (outside of CairoPDF). The syntax that I use for it in plot command is:

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,

Hello there, Straight to the point: it seems that CairoPDF from package "Cairo" cannot handle greek letters from expression(). For example, > eta = seq(from=-pi, to=pi, length=100) > f = sin(eta)^2 > pdf(file = "temp_pdf.pdf") > plot(eta, f, type="l", main=expression(f(eta)==sin(eta)^2), xlab=expression(eta), ylab=expression(f(eta))) > dev.off()

Hi Thanks for your input on this I?aki and Nicolas. I am starting testing an R fix for this problem today. As suggested, the plan is to allow the R user to specify a font family other than "symbol" for plotmath output (or, more generally, in R parlance, for 'font=5' or 'fontface=5') on a Cairo-based graphics device.

I do my devel/patch work on Mac so I can take a shot at testing your branch in the next couple days. ~G On Sun, Mar 29, 2020 at 7:24 PM Paul Murrell <paul at stat.auckland.ac.nz> wrote: > Hi > > I have created an R branch that contains a potential fix ... > > https://svn.r-project.org/R/branches/R-symfam/ > > This allows, for example, ... > >

Hi The R branch ... https://svn.r-project.org/R/branches/R-symfam/ ... is now set up so that it works "out of the box" on Fedora by setting the default to be 'symbolfamily=cairoSymbolFont(family, usePUA=FALSE)' when grSoftVersion()["pango"] is greater than "1.44". This means that on Fedora 31 (at least on the Docker container I am testing on)

This question seemed to me to be more appropriate for r-devel than for r-help. My apologies if this is not the case. Recently I installed ``cairo'' on my lap-top so that I could make use of the (newish) polypath() function, with on-screen graphics. (The polypath() function does not work with X11(type="Xlib").) The installation went smoothly, X11(type="cairo") works
