Hi, The package animation 2.0-1 is on CRAN now (http://cran.r-project.org/package=animation).
CHANGES IN animation VERSION 2.0-1 NEW FEATURES o demo('Xmas_card') contributed by Yuan Huang o demo('flowers') to show how to download images from the Internet and create an animation o a new function pdftk() as a wrapper to call the Pdftk toolkit (mainly for compressing PDF graphics output) o saveLatex(), saveSWF() and saveMovie() can compress the PDF graphics using Pdftk (if available) now; if ani.options('ani.type') is 'pdf' and the 'pdftk' option is set, these functions will try the compression first o new functions ani.record() and ani.replay() to record and replay the animations; they can be used to capture the changes in the graphics made by low-level plotting commands (see ?ani.record for examples) SIGNIFICANT CHANGES o the function tidy.source() was completely removed from this package; users should go to the formatR package (tidy.source() is there now) MINOR CHANGES o the argument 'expr' in saveHTML(), saveLatex(), saveMovie() and saveSWF() will be evaluated by eval(), so we may pass a real R expression (see ?expression) to 'expr', e.g. saveHTML(expression(for (i in 1:10) plot(runif(30)))); but note this argument does not *have to* be a real R expression -- you can still use an arbitrary R code chunk, e.g. saveHTML(for (i in 1:10) plot(runif(30))) (thanks, Aquery) Regards, Yihui -- Yihui Xie <xieyi...@gmail.com> Phone: 515-294-2465 Web: http://yihui.name Department of Statistics, Iowa State University 2215 Snedecor Hall, Ames, IA _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing list r-packa...@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-packages ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
