Re: [R] scalable delimiters in plotmath

2010-09-12 Thread baptiste auguie
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?

Best wishes,

 It's a matter of taste, but I would use \341 and \361.
 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)

 scriptstyle shrinks the inner atop() material, and since I tested on a Mac

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.

These integer codes make no sense to me, I have no clue which  
ones I

should use for  and.


Does this help? (I think they are using Symbol PS fonts with decimal
indexing.)


as.octmode(c(230, 231, 232, 246, 247, 248) )

[1] 346 347 350 366 367 370
 plot(1,1, xlab= expression(
symbol(\346)~# upper 1/3 of left paren
symbol(\347)~# to left of center bar
symbol(\350)~# lower 1/3 of left paren

symbol(\366)~# upper 1/3 of right paren
symbol(\367)~# to right of center bar
symbol(\370) ) ) # lower 1/3 of right paren

(caveat: Maybe not standard glyph-names.)

I added octal annotation to the TestChars(font=5) call that the  
points help

page offers:

TestChars(font=5)
for(j in 1:14) {
   for(i in 0:16){
   text(i+0.2, j+.6, labels=as.octmode(i+(j+1)*16), cex=.5)}}

I do not see a trio or pair of glyphs that would form an angle  
bracket.

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?

Best wishes,

It's a matter of taste, but I would use \341 and \361.
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.
