Move to a New Page on a Grid Device

Description

This function erases the current device or moves to a new page.

Usage

grid.newpage(recording = TRUE)

Arguments

recording

A logical value to indicate whether the new-page operation should be saved onto the Grid display list.

Details

The new page is painted with the fill colour (gpar("fill")), which is often transparent. For devices with a canvas colour (the on-screen devices X11, windows and quartz), the page is first painted with the canvas colour and then the background colour.

There is a hook called "grid.newpage" (see setHook) which is used in the testing code to annotate the new page. The hook function(s) are called with no argument. (If the value is a character string, get is called on it from within the grid name space.)

Value

None.
