Hi Henning,

thanks for your help, with solved the problem, although i don't why, because when using the R editor accessible via the R console i created many many lattice plots with the code i posted, i.e. without the print() command.

At the command line, R objects (including lattice plots which are
objects) get auto-printed, i.e. the print method is invoked automatically on these objects.

This is not the case when you write to a pdf file.

Best,
Tobias

            Dear Henning,

You need to print() lattice plots when using a device:
library(lattice)

pdf("plot1.pdf")
PLOT<-(xyplot, ...)
print(PLOT)
dev.off()

So this is not due to TINN-R.

HTH,

Thierry

Onderwerp: [R] Tinn-R pdf()

Dear R and Tinn-R users,

i recently switched to Tinn-R and sending code to R works fine (R 2.8.1,

Tinn-R 2.2.0.2, OS Windows XP). However, i encountered a problem when trying to send plots to pdf files like this:

library(lattice)

pdf("plot1.pdf")
PLOT<-(xyplot, ...)
PLOT
dev.off()

The file "plot1.pdf" is created, but it is empty.
If i paste the code above directly into the R console and run it, the
file "plot1.pdf" is created and in this case contains "PLOT".

I guess that some settings in Tinn-R are wrong, but i have no idea
which. Maybe someone has a suggestion?

Thanks,

Henning --
