Re: [R] scalable delimiters in plotmath
Thanks everyone. I've also had a look at plotmath.c where bgroup is defined for [, {, (, . but not . It seems quite trivial to add it, at first sight, however there is a part that I don't understand in the RenderDelim routine, static BBOX RenderDelim(int which, double dist, int draw, mathContext *mc, pGEcontext gc, pGEDevDesc dd) { // [... snipped ...] case '(': top = 230; ext = 231; bot = 232; mid = 0; break; case ')': top = 246; ext = 247; bot = 248; mid = 0; break; These integer codes make no sense to me, I have no clue which ones I should use for and . As far as I understand these codes might correspond to extended ascii characters whose boundaries and positions we want to borrow. Then again, maybe it's something else entirely. Any hints?

I see, thanks. Looking at this table I guess the short answer is no, these cannot be made to scale and the only ones that could have already been implemented in bgroup().

You can see the components of growable delimiters on the bottom two rows. Hello Paul; Both Baptiste and I have looked at the plotmath.c code and it appears that only a few of those delimiters are supported. We specifically have tried to use the angle brackets: plot(1,1, xlab=expression(bgroup(symbol(0xe1),atop(x,y),symbol(0xf1 Error in bgroup(symbol(225), atop(x, y), symbol(241)) : invalid group delimiter The supported delimiters appear to each be built up from three parts that are then assembled within a bounding box and as far as I can determine are limited to |, ||, [, {, (, ), },and }. I needed to download the full source to find a copy, but I'm fairly sure a guRu of your standing needs no help finding the code that handles the bgroup display inside plotmath.c. I am not at my machine where I was looking at it, but the code that I just found in expanded form on the Internet bore your name as a copyright holder. So I guess my feature request would be: ---add option for using scalable single character delimiters such as Symbol(0xe1) and Symbol(0xe1). I'm guessing that the reason three-component delimiters were chosen is that it was easier to expand the middle section while not expanding the ends as much but that's just the guess of someone who is perusing without really being able to fully grasp the intricacies of what is being done. -- David Paul Thanks, baptiste On 12 September 2010 21:42, David Winsemiusdwinsem...@comcast.net wrote: On Sep 12, 2010, at 6:15 AM, baptiste auguie wrote: Thanks everyone.

Re: [R] scalable delimiters in plotmath
Hi Baptiste, You need to use the symbol(\nnn) concept, where nnn denotes the octal symbol number. For it's 074 and for it's 076. This little test seemed to work: plot(1, 1, main = expression(symbol(\074)~'x, y'~symbol(\076))) HTH, Dennis On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 10:01 AM, baptiste auguie baptiste.aug...@googlemail.com wrote: What do people use to show angle brackets in R graphics?

However, these are still not scalable, AFAICS. -Peter Ehlers On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 10:01 AM, baptiste auguie baptiste.aug...@googlemail.com wrote: What do people use to show angle bracketsin R graphics?

However, these are still not scalable, AFAICS. Not exactly scalable angles, but you can fake it: plot(1, 1, main = expression(symbol(\341)~scriptstyle( atop(x,y) )~symbol(\361)), cex.main=3) scriptstyle shrinks the inner atop() material, and since I tested on a Mac it should work for Baptiste. -- David. -Peter Ehlers On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 10:01 AM, baptiste auguie baptiste.aug...@googlemail.com wrote: What do people use to show angle bracketsin R graphics?
