Ok, This simple example does not work :

x=rnorm(10)
plot(x)
identify(x)

Identify function find points when I clic on them, but I can't stop the
process. ESC key, or any other mousse button does not work. So I have to
close the quartz() window to stop the identify process and sometimes R
crashes.


The second problem is that the mousse does not focus on the window when I
call identify()

The third problem is in this example :

x=rnorm(10)
qqnorm(x)
identify(x)

Identify function does not find any points when I clic on them and there is
always a problem to stop the process...



Let's see another example :


x=rnorm(10)
par(mfrow=c(2,1))
plot(x)
qqnorm(x)
identify(x)

For this example, I don't know if I am right and I understand that identify
does not find points. Is this really a bug ?


I apologize for my english and I hope you understand me correctly.

Olivier.
