My code is over 700 lines. That is why I didn't send it. I am sorry I did not tell you this.
 
See this code,
 
for(i in 1:20){ 
 windows() 
 par(cex = 0.75) 
 plot(1:10) 
} 


if the RGui window is minimized immediately (by clicking the "minimize" button on the upper right corner) after the code is pasted and run.

> for(i in 1:20){ 
+  windows() 
+  par(cex = 0.75) 
+  plot(1:10) 
+ } 
Error in plot.new() : Figure margins too large

I am using MDI mode. My operating system is Windows XP.
 
Thanks.

You have been asked for a reproducible set of conditions -- this is the
first time `minimized' has been mentioned.  If you can find a completely
reproducible set of actions please file a bug report (after reading the
FAQ section carefully).

We cannot help you otherwise, and don't want to spend time guessing what
you might have forgotten to tell us.  (I see you have not told us if you
use MDI or SDI mode, for example.)
