Hi all, I'm either confused about dev.prev() or there's a bug in it. Open two devices, plot a plot, call dev.prev() and plot again. I would expect the second plot to appear in the first device, but that is not what happens; both plots appear in the second device. Is this expected behavior or a bug? Example (in linux):
x11() par(mfrow = c(1,2)); x11() par(mfrow = c(1,2)); plot(1:10) dev.prev() plot(10:20) This happens both in R-4.2.0 (patched) and R-devel from 2022-09-13 (sorry, don't have a newer one handy). sessionInfo() from the R-devel session: R Under development (unstable) (2022-09-13 r82849) Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) Running under: Fedora Linux 36 (Thirty Six) Matrix products: default BLAS: /usr/local/lib64/R-devel/lib/libRblas.so LAPACK: /usr/local/lib64/R-devel/lib/libRlapack.so locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C [3] LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 [7] LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NAME=C [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C [11] LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] compiler_4.3.0 ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
