I am not understanding something about generating PNG plots. I have tried several ways to obtain something other than a transparent background, but nothing I've done seems to change the background.
For example: dev.print(png, width=800, height=600, bg='red', filename='example.png') which I thought would give a red background, simply gives the same transparent background I always get. And I also don't understand why the default background is transparent, when the documentation seems to say that it's white: png(filename = "Rplot%03d.png", width = 480, height = 480, pointsize = 12, bg = "white", res = NA,...) (This is on a Kubuntu dapper 64-bit system.) [I looked through the mail archives, and there seem to be a few very old postings talking about the opposite problem, but nothing recent; so I conclude that I'm doing something wrong.] ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
