Dear R-Package-Devel, As part of GWSDAT package (https://github.com/waynegitshell/GWSDAT) we support the option to output plots to a WMF (https://r-graphics.org/recipe-output-vector-wmf) format if, and only if, the user is on Windows. However, when I run the package checks on here it complains about using a platform specific function with the following message:
Found the platform-specific device: 'win.metafile' dev.new() is the preferred way to open a new device, in the unlikely event one is needed. In my opinion this is a false positive - and a similar issue has previously been reported here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70585796/unable-to-understand-1-note-in-devtoolscheck-caused-by-a-platform-specific-d Any ideas on how I modify the code and package submission to automatically pass the checks?
