Added magick and pdftools as (Suggests)
dependencies, to provide better
and more stable support for plotdiff().
Fixed clipping (of main contour region) bug for echoing
filled.contour().
Added device argument to grid.echo()
so that user can specify a “working device”. This
is an in-memory PDF device by default, but that can have
problems with fonts. Suggested by Claus Wilke.
Added capture of font family when echoing persp() plots. Reported by Claus Wilke.
Added names for grobs from echoing persp() and
filled.contour().
Fix for echoing correct font settings in axis()
and persp(). Reported by Claus Wilke.
Attempt to survive errors during echoing (like "figure margins too large") more elegantly
Fixed bug when echoing scatter plot with ZERO points in it. Reported by github user zxzb https://github.com/pmur002/gridgraphics/issues/9
Made plotdiff() more robust to unexpected output from ImageMagick's compare. Reported by Brian Ripley.
Added Zhijian (Jason) Wen as package author (it was he
who contributed the persp() and filled.contour()
support).
grid.echo() now supports persp() and
filled.contour()
Changed stop() to warning() when call grid.echo() with empty “recordedplot” (suggested by Jonathon Godfrey).
Fixed examples for grid.echo()
(patch by Josh O'Brien).
More robust Windows support for plotdiff() and
plotcompare() (patch by Josh O'Brien).
Added defence against axis(line=) specification
of length greater than 1 (reported by Jimmy Oh).
Added explicit handling of C_layout(),
though handling does nothing (reported by Jimmy Oh).
Fixed drawing of ticks for axis(at=) when
at exceeds range of axis scale. The ticks outside
the axis scale range are now correctly clipped
(reported by Jimmy Oh).
Future-proofed test script for hist.POSIXt()
(so that the addition of new leap seconds does not generate errors
about breaks not spanning the range of the data).
Added defence against NA text values in call to
title().
Added defence against code sending in NULL values in par()
settings (e.g., sp does this with the xpd setting).
These par() settings are ignored (to match internal
graphics C code behaviour).
Fixed documentation of first argument in grid.echo()
(it can be a function, not an expression).
Added better checking in plotdiff() for existence of
convert and compare tools and for recent-enough
version of R (to be able to perform the strict check for
differences).
First public release of gridGraphics package.
