I have created following interactive plot :

library(TeachingDemos)
plott = function(x)
   {
    return(hist(rnorm(as.integer(1000, 10, x)),

xlab=NA))

   }
tkexamp(plott,

list(x=list('slider',from=1,to=40, resolution=0.1,
init=2)), plotloc='top')

Here everything works fine, but the problaem is

whenever I try to drag the slider the entire plot window
goind behind the screen. Can anyone please tell me what
should I do?


It sounds as though you are using Windows, and running R in
MDI mode. 
tcltk doesn't work very well in this mode.  You really
need to shrink 
the MDI frame and move the tcltk window outside of it, or
run in SDI 
mode, where all windows are more or less equal.

You can select SDI mode by putting --sdi on the command
line, or from 
the Edit|GUI preferences dialog.
