[R] Can someone please have a look at this query on stackoverflow?

[Bert Gunter]

Well, as no one else has offered an answer ...

I haven't looked at this closely, but could it not simply be the case that
the aspect ratio set by "Landscape Mode" just differs from that of your
display device? -- i.e., it is impossible to have the figure displayed in
landscape ratio *and* simultaneously fill your display device?

If this is obviously wrong, feel free to ignore without replying.

Cheers,
Bert
