`kest` radius limits?

Nick Eubank writes:
For the border correction, the estimate of K(r) becomes NA (and is not plotted) as soon as there are no data points that lie more than 'r' units away from the boundary. If the maximum distance from any data point to the boundary of Sweden is 160 km, then this is the behaviour I would expect.

All explained in chapter 7 of the spatstat book.

If you print a summary function object, the output shows the "recommended range" of distance values and the full "available range". By default, the plots of summary functions use the "recommended range" of distance values rather than the full "available range". To override this, when you plot the summary function, use 'xlim' to control the range of 'r' values. (xlim should be an argument in the 'plot' call).
