[R] plot region too large

[Kiermeier, Andreas (PIRSA - SARDI)]

The figure margins come from what is set in par("mar"), eg

> layout(matrix(c(1:10),5,2),heights=c(1,rep(2,4)))
> par("mar")
[1] 5.1 4.1 4.1 2.1
> 

There is not enough space left to plot anything with those margins.  You
will need to make them smaller first, e.g.

> par(mar=c(1,1,1,1,))
> plot(1,1)

In which case things work.

Cheers,

Andreas

Hi!

I don't understand this:

plot(1,1)
error in plot.new() :  plot region too large

Why??????

Thanks!
Kamila
