Problem has gone away! Last night, on this computer (64-bit i7 Windows 7), setting inches=F plotted wrongly on Y. Tried it again this morning - still wrong on Y the first time, BUT repeating it - okay on Y! Repeating previous syntax, then repeating this - still okay.
Odd. I will get back to the list if it starts happening again.

I have been plotting some circles using 'symbols', with radii representing my data, but the radii looked incorrect. It seems to happen with a single circle too: Symbols ( 0, 0, circles = 40, xlim = c(-40, 40), ylim= c(-40, 40)) If I put a ruler up to my monitor (technology!) to compare the radius with the axes, the circle isn't radius 40; it is closer to 15... I suspect there is a simple answer. Stuart This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.
