interesting, it works, but still need to explicitly specify screen number. It'b be nice to have tabbed canvas, but I suspect it's wrong list.

Have you considered using ?split.screen and ?erase.screen with a non-transparent background instead of layout. Example: par(bg = "white") # default is likely to be transparent split.screen(c(3,1)) # split display into three screens screen(1) plot(1:10) screen(2) plot(2:20) screen(3) plot(3:30)
screen(1) erase.screen() plot(sin(40:400))

Hello,
for testing & learning purposes I create X11 device and specify layout like layout(c(1,2,3), 3, 1), so I could play with parameters and see several plots at the same time. That works fine until I try to create 4-th plot - all other plots erased. Such behaviour isn't desirable for testing purposes and I'm asking where to look to disable erasing other plots.
In Windows you can record all plots by using the record=TRUE option when you open the graphics display, or from the menu on the display window. You cycle back through the history by hitting the PgUp key.
You're using X11, so you might need to save your plots explicitly using recordPlot() and then use replayPlot() to see it again (but your front-end might provide access to them more easily, the way Windows does).
Thanks, looks like too much work :( I just don't understand a logic why I can't recycle canvas.
