Could this information be incorporate into the RweaveLatex help page?
Concerning the sizes of graphs, it contains only the following
information:
"
width: numeric (6), width of figures in inches.
height: numeric (6), height of figures in inches.
"
Unfortunately this concise information can easily mislead into
believing that these two options affect the graphs dynamically
produced and included in the final .pdf file. It might help for these
two sentences to specify what figures they're affecting, and also to
include some info about "\setkeys{Gin}{width=0.8\textwidth}".
Thank you
Liviu
