Quartz: Open quartz device

In thomas-muench/tmlibr: My Personal R Library of Miscellaneous Auxiliary Functions.

Description

Wrapper to open a quartz device with my default dimensions and graphical parameters for on-screen plotting or saving to a file.

Usage

Quartz(file = NULL, type = "native", height = 6, width = 8, ...)

Arguments

file	path to a file for storing a hardcopy of the plot including a supported file extension to set the type of output (e.g. ".pdf" or ".png"); i.e. the function extracts the extension from file and uses it as the type argument for the call to quartz. Defaults to NULL for on-screen plotting.
type	the type of output to use. Defaults to "native" for on-screen plotting. If file is not NULL, type is determined from its extension.
height	the height of the plotting area in inches. Default ‘6’.
width	the width of the plotting area in inches. Default ‘8’.
...	further arguments passed on to quartz.
