Better to use resources. But you can use (in .Rprofile) options(device=function() x11(xpos=-1)) The resources version would be to put in ~/.Xresources something like R_x11*geometry: 700x700-0+0 > Thanks again > Ottorino Pantani > > Prof Brian Ripley ha scritto: >> On Linux the default graphics device is X11(), and not so on Windows. >> >> ?X11 tells you no less than *two* ways to do this: I do wonder why you >> don't just read the help file? >> >> ?options (see 'device') tells you how to set up a default device which you >> could use to change default arguments, but using the X11 geometry resources >> is the canonical way to do this. >> >> On Tue, 6 Nov 2007, 8rino-Luca Pantani wrote: >> >>> There's a Renviron file under /etc/R, but there are no lines with >>> "position (x, y)". >>> >>> Henrique Dallazuanna ha scritto: >>>> In the Windows the file Rconsole contains the position(x,y) of the >>>> graphics. >>>> I don't know if file have the same name in Ubuntu. >>>> >>> >>> ______________________________________________ >>> R-help@r-project.org mailing list >>> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help >>> PLEASE do read the posting guide >>> http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html >>> and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >>> >> > > -- Brian D.
