Odd graphic device behavior

John,
Thanks for the suggestion, but no. I have even gone so far as to rebuild R
from source, re-booted my computer, and tried the 'experiment':
require(stats)
plot(cars)
immediately after starting R. Still the same result. I think it must be
related to some default Ubuntu Unity window manager default I can't sort
out.
Have your deleted the default workspace and history files? When they get corrupted, odd things can happen.

Any chance that you made an earlier call to par() resetting cex in your session? I just had that happen. John Kane Kingston ON Canada

Subject: [R] Odd graphic device behavior
I'm experiencing odd graphics device behavior running R 2.15.3 on Ubuntu.
Regardless of what I try like:
require(stats)
plot(cars)
lines(lowess(cars))
plot(sin, -pi, 2*pi)
for example, the graphics device fills the entire screen with the graphic
and a very large font. When I shrink the graphics device window, the
lettering remains large and the line thicknesses stay quite thick. It may
have been some time since I have done any R work on my Ubuntu computer,
but
clearly this did not happen previously.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thank you,
Tom
