Low-Level Plotting Function

DESCRIPTION:

Calculate the scale for things like par(tck).

USAGE:

plot.size.scale() 

VALUE:

the x and y scales as a numeric vector.

DETAILS:

Many par parameters for plotting, such as "tck", are expressed as fractions of the smaller of the two side sizes of the plotting region. This function calculates this size in user x and y coordinates, and returns a numeric vector containing the x and y scales. It is called internally from several low-level plotting functions, such as ticks.render.

EXAMPLES:

plot(1:10)
