2006-01-29 Thread greg . kochanski
Full_Name: Greg Kochanski Version: 2.2.1 OS: Debian Linux (testing) Submission from: (NULL) (212.159.16.190) mosaicplot(x, shade=TRUE) is intended to color the blocks blue if they are more common than one might expect and red if they are rarer than one might expect. Unfortunately, if a block is

Full_Name: Greg Kochanski Version: 2.2.1 OS: Debian Linux (testing) Submission from: (NULL) (212.159.16.190) This is really a feature request. When you do mosaicplot() on a data set where the probability of several nearby rows is small, then the labels for those rows are plotted overlapping

Full_Name: Greg Kochanski Version: 2.2.0 OS: Debian Linux Submission from: (NULL) (212.159.16.190) When you grab the corner of the Tk-R (R's console) window, the window stretches, but the useable area does not. It remains firmly fixed at the (rather small) value of 24 lines. In fact, you e
