  • You seem to also be using RStudio. What version of RStudio are you using? Does that same issue happen if you run the code in the base R GUI? – MrFlick Sep 12 '22 at 14:53
  • Yes, I am using RStudio 2022.07.1 Build 554. Getting the same error with R GUI. – MYaseen208 Sep 12 '22 at 15:14
  • You seem to be using a development version (0.12.3.1 is on CRAN). Have you tried reverting to the CRAN version ... ? (Although both versions work for me on Linux) – Ben Bolker Sep 13 '22 at 00:59
  • Yes, I tried tried with the stable version from CRAN. However getting the same error. – MYaseen208 Sep 13 '22 at 03:26
  • I don't get the error when using R 4.2.1, tikzDevice 0.12.3.1, Rstudio 2022.07.0 on a Mac. – Quinten Sep 16 '22 at 16:56

  • For similar problems using the free https://rstudio.cloud is a good option as you can choose and test different versions of R : 3.4.4 to 4.2.1 – Wael Sep 18 '22 at 19:04

  • Hi @IRTFM, it is an Rstudio IDE that you can run directly from your browser (any modern browser). – Wael Sep 23 '22 at 07:56
