use of split.screen() with postscript device
Hi! par(mfrow=c(2,1)) splits the plot in two parts for example. For more information about graphics read introduction to R provided with your R installation. if par(mfrow ... par(mfcol is not flexible enough for you you can examine the documentation for ?layout If you need even more flexibility look at the grid package of Paul Murrel There is also an artikle in Rnews about combining the graphics function in the graphics package from P. Murrel. You may also to consider to learn the graphic functions in the lattice package of by Deepayan Sarkar which build on grid. Sincerely Eryk *********** REPLY SEPARATOR ***********

Greetings,
I am new to R and quite confused by the apparent inconsistency in it's
behavior. My latest difficulty lies in producing eps output for use with
latex. In particular, I was successful in obtaining a single figure by
using:
postscript("ripple1.eps",onefile=FALSE)
plot(nu_set[[1]],ip[[1]])
lines(nu_set[[1]],predict(fitIp[[1]]))
dev.off()
...but then I tried to place two figures on the same output sheet by
using
split.screen() as follows:
postscript("ripple1.eps",onefile=FALSE)
split.screen(c(1,2))
screen(1)
plot(nu_set[[1]],ip[[1]])
lines(nu_set[[1]],predict(fitIp[[1]]))
screen(2)
plot(rangeIpNorm)
dev.off()
and received no output whatsoever. Furthermore, I can no longer get
postscript
output using the original commands! I've tried exiting and re-starting
R, and
am just about to reboot because I almost cannot believe what I am seeing.
Can you spot anything that I am doing wrong?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Steve
