issue with systemfonts

[ZhangAngus]

Dear Sir, When I was running the example codes provided, it always prompted R encountered a fatal error. The session was teminated. . The error prompted on executing the codes

doc <- ph_with(x = doc, editable_graph,
               location = ph_location_type(type = "body")  )

No matter the CRAN or github edition of rvg and officers packages.

The full codes and session info are showed below.

In addition, when I tested with preview R edition, like 3.6.0, it worked well with no error.

So I suspect that rvg or officer may be incompatible with R 3.6.3.

And, thank you for your efforts on these amazing packages.

Codes

setwd("d:/")
library(ggplot2)
library(officer)
library(rvg)
gg_plot <- ggplot(data = iris ) +
  geom_point(
    mapping = aes(Sepal.Length, Petal.Length, color = Species),
    size = 3) + theme_minimal()

editable_graph <- dml(ggobj = gg_plot)
doc <- read_pptx()
doc <- add_slide(doc)
doc <- ph_with(x = doc, editable_graph,
               location = ph_location_type(type = "body")  )
print(doc, target = "rvg.pptx")

Hello,

Could you run the following code in a new R session and add the result please (I need to know rvg, systemfonts, and other dependencies version information) :

library(officer)
library(rvg)
sessionInfo()

Thank you

[davidgohel]

Thank you.

Now, could you run the following?

library(systemfonts)
system_fonts()

[ZhangAngus]

Thank you.

Now, could you run the following?

library(systemfonts)
system_fonts()

Opus, when I ran library(systemfonts), it was OK. But when I ran system_fonts(), it collapsed and prompted R encountered a fatal error. The session was teminated.

[davidgohel]

OK, thanks for taking the time to help.

This issue is tracked here: https://github.com/r-lib/systemfonts/issues/20 - the author is working on it.

(leave the issue open so that if other users meet the same issue, they know it's a known issue)

[ZhangAngus]

OK, thank you for your patience. I do appreciate your help.

[davidgohel]

@ZhangAngus Thomas may have fixed the issue, would you be ok to test it?

[ZhangAngus]

Once you tagged the issue from APPCRASH in systemfonts.dll, I subscribed the issue.

I tried the branch of noisy-win and the latest master branch posted by thomasp85.

Nothing changed. I will post a reply once a new fix works.

For now, I have downgraded my R edition to make your packages available.

[davidgohel]

ok, thanks and sorry for the noise

[ZhangAngus]

@davidgohel In the latest master branch of systemfonts that @thomasp85 submitted 12 hours ago, the officer and rvg work in the latest R version.

Thank you both for your lovely contributions.
