[Rd] plot(1:3) malfunctions with par(bg='transparent')

[Spencer Graves]

Hello, All:


       Try the following:


par(bg='transparent')
plot(1:3)


       I get two plots superimposed, one over twice the size it should 
be, much of it outside the device region.


       Thanks for all you do to make R such a useful tool.  People all 
over the world live better today, because R helps improve the 
effectiveness of data analysts.
