gridsvg: gridSVG Graphics Device

In gridSVG: Export 'grid' Graphics as SVG

gridSVG Graphics Device

Description

Provides a convenient and familiar graphics device interface for the gridSVG package.

Usage

gridsvg(name = "Rplots.svg",
        exportCoords = c("none", "inline", "file"),
        exportMappings = c("none", "inline", "file"),
        exportJS = c("none", "inline", "file"),
        res = NULL,
        prefix = "",
        addClasses = FALSE,
        indent = TRUE,
        htmlWrapper = FALSE,
        usePaths = c("vpPaths", "gPaths", "none", "both"),
        uniqueNames = TRUE,
        annotate = TRUE,
        progress = FALSE,
        compression = 0,
        strict = TRUE,
        rootAttrs = NULL,
        xmldecl = xmlDecl(), ...)
dev.off(which = dev.cur())

Arguments

name, exportCoords, exportMappings, exportJS, res, prefix, addClasses, indent, htmlWrapper, usePaths, uniqueNames, annotate, progress, compression, strict, rootAttrs, xmldecl	These parameters are passed onto grid.export.
...	Further parameters that are passed onto a NULL pdf graphics device. Useful parameters include width and height.
which	An integer specifying a device number.

Details

These functions provide a more familiar and perhaps convenient interface to gridSVG than grid.export. It uses a PDF device as drawing occurs, but when the device needs to be written out (via dev.off) then it will save an SVG image instead.

When a grid display list is not in use, or any device other than the gridsvg device is used, the behaviour of dev.off is the same as dev.off from the grDevices package.

Value

gridsvg returns nothing.

dev.off will return in the same manner as grid.export. A list is always returned, but invisibly when an invalid filename is given.
