The Windows screen device is called windows(), not x11() (which is an
alias for a cut-down version that is no longer needed). It is not
possible to open it to fill the screen -- there is a deliberate size limit
of 85% of the screen size (see the help page). Nor is it possible to
maximize it programatically (at least by functions provided by R).
However, using the 'width' and 'height' arguments to windows() should
enable you to choose a suitable layout.

Hello,
Thanks Leandro for your solution.
But, in fact, it doesn't match what I'm trying to do ... due to the fact
that I didn't clearly tell you what I'm trying to do.
I tested the command jpeg() but it doesn't display the curve and I need to
see it before saving it.
Here is a small example of my script :
x11()
plot(1:10,1:10, pch=20, col="lightblue", ylab="y", xlab="x", cex.axis=1.5,
cex.lab=1.5, cex.main=1.5, cex=1.5, ylim=c(0,12))
points(5, 8, pch=20, col="red", cex=1.5)
smartlegend(x="right",y="bottom", inset = 0.02,
c("BlaBlaBlaBla", "BlaBlaBlaBla"),
col = c( "red", "lightblue"), pch=20, cex=1.5)
The x11() command opens a graphic device whose size is 6.99999 6.99999
(given by par("din")).
(By the way, if I maximize the window, par("din") again gives 6.9999
6.99999).
With this size, the legend is ok. But if I maximize the window, there is a
lot of whit space in the legend box which occupies too much place.
If I launch again the script, but without the x11() command, in a maximized
window, the legend display is ok.
That's why I would like to directly open a full screen graphic window before
plotting the legend.
I hope this explaination is clearer and that somebody will have a solution.
Thanks in advance,
Ptit Bleu.
