[R-SIG-Mac] Quartz questions

[Rob J Goedman]

Tim,

1) What are your preference settings for Quartz?

 > quartz(width = 5, height=6)

works on my system (as long as I don't use the override setting in  
the pref pane).

2) Not sure if you can re-activate a previous window

3) Are the screen resolutions of the 2 machines identical?
