-----Message d'origine----- De : r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch]De la part de Adrian DUSA Envoye : vendredi 9 septembre 2005 09:54 Dear R-list, Could anybody tell me where to find information about changing the measurement unit from inch to centimeters? I read the help from X11, I read R-intro and I did some searhing in the R archives, but I couldn't find the answer. For example, I would like to produce a plot of a certain width and height: X11(width=10, height=5) and I would like these to be centimeters, rather than inches. Thank you, Adrian
1 inch = 2.54 cm So you could try what I do for that
X11(width=10/2.54, height=5/2.54)
Or
cm2in<-function(x) x/2.54 X11(width=cm2in(10), height=cm2in(5))
