Description

I have a few students using PCs with the Rstudio for whom check_model() produces no output. It's fine if they use the base R GUI on their PC or if they render check_model() in quarto. But in Rstudio itself, it's just a blank plot. They've even tried exporting it as an image in case the viewport was weird, and it just exports a blank image. For two of them, they gave me their setup. I can collect more info if that would be helpful.

Note - this happens regardless of dataset - it's a general issue.

Setups for students:

  1. R version 4.3.1
  2. RStudio version: 2023.06.1 Build 524 "Mountain Hydrangea"
  3. Performance version 0.10.5
  4. Windows version: 22H2 (OS Build 22621.2361)\

 

  1. R version: 4.3.1
  2. RStudio version: "Desert Sunflower" Release (b51c81cc, 2023-09-25) for windows
  3. Package performance version 0.10.5
  4. Windows version: 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3448)

Research direction

Start by reproducing check_model() in RStudio on Windows with the listed R and performance versions, then compare the same call in base R and Quarto. Check whether the blank output occurs across datasets and in exported images. Done means check_model() renders and exports nonblank output in RStudio without regressing the working contexts.
