Hi,
Can anyone suggest some help for saving or copying graphs I've created in the
Quartz screen? I've read the R-FAQ and tried to search for answers, but have
not found anything. I'm using a Mac, Mountain Lion OS, and have version 2.15.2
of R.
When I save a graphic, the process either crashes R, or if it saves a file, when I open
it I get a blank file or an error message that reads "The file Rplot.pdf could not
be opened." When I try to copy the graphic instead to paste into any other program
(Word, Excel, etc), a blank image frame is all I get. I have also tried running graphics
and either saving or exporting from RStudio and have the same issues.
I assume there is some package I've not loaded or some bug fix I need to get,
but I can't find any documentation about it. Any ideas?
The easiest WYSIWYG way is to use
quartz.save("foo.pdf","pdf")
which works in the R.app GUI.
In R-devel (3.0.0-to-be) it also works in command-line R.
Nonetheless, copy/paste works as well although it uses a different way. If we
are to look into that, can you tell us exactly what OS version are you on and
provide sessionInfo() to have an idea about your setup?
I took this to mean 'Save' from the quartz() device menu, which works
for me (on Lion and ML).
Cheers,
Simon
