Re: [R] Knitr, ggplot and consistent fonts

2013-12-23 Thread Yihui Xie
I believe you are right. We thank either Gmail or [[alternative HTML
version deleted]] for this. I think showNonASCII() is just irrelevant
here and pulling us to the wrong direction.

It is not reliable to paste code into Email due to the potentially
wrong text wrapping. Please consider an email attachment (not sure if
an Rnw document can get through), or a Github gist, or pastebin
instead, e.g. https://gist.github.com/yihui/8105762 Or ask on SO:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/r

Now let's move back to the original question, to which I have no solution.

Thanks, I was not getting anything when I printed the x and so thought I was 
doing  something wrong. Instead I just didn't seem to have a non-ASCII 
character.

showNonASCII('ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) + geom_histogram(aes(y = ..density..)),

 From the showNonASCII help page:

One gets a result one does not see?  Does one have to explicitly capture the

the help page is doing.


"returned invisibly" means that the result is returned with a flag set 
so it won't automatically print.  If you want to print it, you need to 
ask.  So any of these will work to see the result:


x <- showNonASCII(  )
x

or

print(showNonASCII(  ))

or even (though this is one some of us don't like, it still works...)

(showNonASCII(  ))

You get that error because you're using double quotes around a string
containing double quotes, and not escaping them.  With that string,
using single quotes on the outside should be fine:

Hi Dan



I think you still have problems with embedded characters or some
problems
in
char code page conversion or the like.



Not knowing knitr but Sweave I cobbled the figures manually and ran
the
sweave file to produce the latex file.

Latex was consistently stopping at the \caption and \ref functions

the

2013-12-23 Thread Federico Lasa
Hi, chiming in.
Pasted the code in R studio and the format parser wouldn't mark the R code
chunks. It was because there were line breaks in the middle of chunk
options tags.  Couldn't test if removing line breaks works, but maybe
that's the source of the problem?

Thanks  Duncan.  
I had the feeling I was doing something wrong but did not realise it was that 
stupid.

showNonASCII('ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) + geom_histogram(aes(y = ..density..)),
 binwidth = 1, colour = "black", fill = "white")')

now runs and does what the help page seems to imply: Nothing.

>From the showNonASCII help page:

One gets a result one does not see?  Does one have to explicitly capture the 
result somehow?  I really have not the faintest idea of what the example from 
the help page is doing.

I am really sorry for posting a non-working example. It is running when
I
cut the code from my previous mail into a clean session in RStudio
(OSX).
However, I suspect that you are right. I did cut and paste some code
from
a
forum yesterday which had characters that had to be replaced. I gave
emacs a
try, but could not find the problem there either.



The code below was pasted though textEdit and converted to plain text.
I
hope this takes care of any embedded characters.



\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}



<>=

library(knitr)

library(ggplot2)

@



\title{Knitr and ggplot2}

\author{Daniel Haugstvedt}



\maketitle



There are four plots in this article. Figure \ref{fig:plot-figHeight}
uses

the argument fig.height=2.5 while Figures \ref{fig:plot-figWidth}

used both fig.height=2.5 and fig.width=3. The later option makes the
font

too big.



An alternative approach is used in Figures
\ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthBig}
and

  \ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthSmall}. There the argument out.width is set
to

  12 and 8 cm respectively. This stops the problem of excessively large
fonts

  for figures with smaller width, but there is still no consistency

  across plots in terms o font size.

Thanks Richard.  I did not realise such a function existed.

Assuming I am using it  correctly I do get an error though not where I was 
expecting it.  Anyway the code below returns an error

library(tools)
showNonASCII("ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) + geom_histogram(aes(y = ..density..)), 
binwidth = 1, colour = "black", fill = "white")")

Results
Error: unexpected symbol in:
"showNonASCII("ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) + geom_histogram(aes(y = ..density..)), 
binwidth = 1, colour = "black"

Does not seem to be.  I 'think' I removed all the line breaks  and it still is 
not compiling.  Thanks for the suggestion. I had not bothered to paste the 
<<>>= text into RStudio and since TexMaker has an automatic wrap, I would never 
have noticed it.

Hi, chiming in. 
Pasted the code in R studio and the format parser wouldn't mark the R code 
chunks. It was because there were line breaks in the middle of chunk options 
tags.  Couldn't test if removing line breaks works, but maybe that's the source 
of the problem?

If the problem seems to be non-ASCII characters, then the first investigation
step is to use the R functions

?tools::showNonASCII
?tools::showNonASCIIfile

Same result here with the same error message mentioned in my first post.  I 
tried it in Texmaker which is my usual Latex editor, not that I do much in 
Latex, and then tried it in RStudio and it is still choking.  

Interestingly EMACS will process it and produce a pdf but it simply produces.  
It also provides this warning: : Latex Warning; Reference 'fig:plot-figheight'

Re: [R] Knitr, ggplot and consistent fonts

2013-12-23 Thread Duncan Mackay
Hi Dan

 

I think you still have problems with embedded characters or some problems in
char code page conversion or the like.

 

Not knowing knitr but Sweave I cobbled the figures manually and ran the
sweave file to produce the latex file.

Latex was consistently stopping at the \caption and \ref functions 

I tried to see what was happening I added hyperref & when I copied the text
to hyperref  latex bailed up

 

I tried a minimal latex file without problems

 

I put the \title etc in the preamble. Some compilers need this

I am really sorry for posting a non-working example. It is running when I

However, I suspect that you are right. I did cut and paste some code from a

There are four plots in this article. Figure \ref{fig:plot-figHeight} uses 

the argument fig.height=2.5 while Figures \ref{fig:plot-figWidth}

An alternative approach is used in Figures  \ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthBig}

 \ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthSmall}. There the argument out.width is set to 

 12 and 8 cm respectively. This stops the problem of excessively large fonts

I tried it in Sweave after modifying it for Sweave and a similar thing for
Latex but R crashed.

I think there is an embedded character/s before the first chunk and in the
first chunk.

Hi Daniel,

For some reason I cannot get your example to work. The problem is in the
code chunk but I have no idea what is happening. The code is running
perfectly in R, itself but LaTeX seems to be choking when it hits the first
ggplot statement, that is the one in <>=

The message I am getting is: "Missing $ inserted  $
ggplot(df, aes(x=x)) = geom_" and my knowledge of LateX is not enough to
figure out the problem.

I tried stripping out most of the LaTeX specific verbiage in the code chunk
and running the code in LyX which I use rather than plain vanilla LaTeX and
I still cannot get it to work. It is almost as if there is some hidden
character in the in that piece of code since I can duplicate the code myself
and I even pasted in most of the geom_histogram code into my code chunk and
it runs.

Re: [R] Knitr, ggplot and consistent fonts

2013-12-23 Thread Daniel Haugstvedt
I am really sorry for posting a non-working example. It is running when I
cut the code from my previous mail into a clean session in RStudio (OSX).
However, I suspect that you are right. I did cut and paste some code from a
forum yesterday which had characters that had to be replaced. I gave emacs
a try, but could not find the problem there either.

The code below was pasted though textEdit and converted to plain text. I
hope this takes care of any embedded characters.

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}

<>=
library(knitr)
library(ggplot2)
@

\title{Knitr and ggplot2}
\author{Daniel Haugstvedt}

\maketitle

There are four plots in this article. Figure \ref{fig:plot-figHeight} uses
the argument fig.height=2.5 while Figures \ref{fig:plot-figWidth}
used both fig.height=2.5 and fig.width=3. The later option makes the font
too big.

An alternative approach is used in Figures  \ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthBig}
and
 \ref{fig:plot-figOutWidthSmall}. There the argument out.width is set to
 12 and 8 cm respectively. This stops the problem of excessively large fonts
 for figures with smaller width, but there is still no consistency
 across plots in terms o font size.

<>=
df = data.frame(x = rnorm(100), y = 1:100)
ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) +
  geom_histogram(aes(y = ..density..),
 binwidth = 1, colour = "black", fill = "white") +
