[R-SIG-Mac] Error resizing a plot window: Error in UseMethod("depth") :

[BATES Timothy]

Looks like a bug under High Sierra.
Repro
1. Close any open Quartz  graphics window
2. Running the example on the top of the cowplot page you linked.

Obtained:  useMethod("depth") error when the second plot tries to render (no need to resize the window)

Running the code a second time (i.e., when an already open graphics window) there's no error.

Repro  code:
theme_set(theme_cowplot(font_size=12)) # reduce default font size
plot.mpg <- ggplot(mpg, aes(x = cty, y = hwy, colour = factor(cyl))) +  geom_point(size=2.5)
plot.diamonds <- ggplot(diamonds, aes(clarity, fill = cut)) + geom_bar() +  theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle=70, vjust=0.5))
plot_grid(plot.mpg, plot.diamonds, labels = c('A', 'B'))

Error in UseMethod("depth") :
  no applicable method for 'depth' applied to an object of class "NULL"

Tim,

I've run the example code on the page below and resized the plots with no errors.

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/cowplot/vignettes/plot_grid.html

It may have something to do with running High Sierra, or the specific code/data you are using.

Could you post a reproducible example?

Brandon

The plot was two ggplot2 graphs side by side, made using cowplot::plot_grid()

Set up is
R version: R version 3.4.1 (2017-06-30)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0
MacOS: 10.13 Beta (17A352a)


Is there a githuib or other page to log bugs in Mac R.app?

best, tim
