I can confirm this, e.g. with > postscript() > plot(1) > xyplot(2 ~ 2) > dev.off() (not that obvious on screen because the dark background overwrites the first plot). The underlying reason seems to be grid not knowing whether to start a new page the first time: > x11() > plot(1) > grid.newpage() > grid.points(x = runif(10), y = runif(10), vp = viewport()) Paul, any ideas?
