Description

Saves the current plot on a windows device to a file.

Usage

savePlot(filename = "Rplot",
         type = c("wmf", "emf", "png", "jpeg", "jpg", "bmp",
                  "ps", "eps", "pdf"),
         device = dev.cur(),
         restoreConsole = TRUE)

Arguments

`filename`	The filename under which to save the plot, without the extension.
`type`	The type of plot, Windows metafile, PNG, JPEG, BMP (Windows bitmap format), PostScript or PDF.
`device`	A device number of a `windows` device, by default the current device.
`restoreConsole`	See the Details section of `windows`.

Details

This is equivalent to selecting the ‘Save as’ menu item on the ‘File’ menu of a windows device.

Using filename as "clipboard" or "" with type = "wmf" will copy to the clipboard.

Types "eps" and "ps" are the same thing apart from the extension. Similarly "wmf"/"emf" and "jpeg"/"jpg".
