Hi R friends,
I've been attempting to create plots with multiple alpha values using
Cairo to save them on a windows (32b XP) platform as it doesn't support
more than 3 alpha values. This worked well until I wanted a postscript
file (unsupported) and as a attempted work around I installed RGtk2. So
far so good, however now when I try to use a
>CairoPDF("alpha.pdf", 6, 6, bg="transparent")
Or any
>Cairo(....)
Or
>CairoXXX(...)
Command I get (variations of):
>Error in Cairo(width, height, file, "pdf", pointsize = pointsize, bg =
bg, :
Failed to create Cairo backend!
Can someone suggest a reason/solution please
Cheers
Dan
