quartz is the graphics layer of OS X ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_(graphics_layer)). This is why the "native" Apple device is called quartz() in R. This is a super nice device IMO. Xquartz is a port of X11 to quartz. To use XQuartz on OS X you have to use the x11() device (or features wh

Your are correct. I have been using quartz() on the released intel build of R_4.0.3 on the Mac Silicon. The misbehavior I reported is about quartz(). R graphics defaults to quartz() when no device is specified. I was unaware that XQuartz and quartz are unrelated. quartz is faster and allows

The quartz() device has nothing to so with XQuartz. Quartz is part of macOS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_(graphics_layer) Using XQuartz betas is not supported: it is very unfortunate that they are persuading users to install a beta version. You have not followed the posting guide an

Is R on M1 really talking to the REAL XQuartz? After I opened XQuartz from the spotlignt, it acknowledged the xterm window, but not the R graphics window. When I closed the XQuartz app, the R graphics window was still open and functioning. dev.cur() says "quartz". just checked on my older in

When I draw a 9x7 panel lattice it displays 12 panels, then sits there until I resize the window. then the rest appears. When I display another 9x7, it too sits at 12 panels. When I Cmd-left for the previous display, the current one vanishes entirely. When I send the command again, after it sits

Hi, I’ll just confirm the odd behaviour of the Quartz window in Big Sur 11.2 R 4.0.3 GUI 1.73 on M1 silicon. I have installed the beta3 version of Quartz. In my case I have to CMD <- twice, then go forward to get the next to last plot. Are these Quartz windows constructed using native MacOS gra

[R-SIG-Mac] rgl and x11 failures on MacOS

2021-02-09 Thread Duncan Murdoch
I have heard a few reports recently that attempting to load rgl causes R to freeze up. This is related to recent problems with MacOS updates or XQuartz updates: people who now can't load rgl also can't run x11() in R. I haven't experienced the issue myself, but have heard of two possible sol
