I was wondering if the output plots resulting from org-babel blocks are customizable in size (how they appear in the org-mode buffer, as in its dimensions X and Y). Thanks!

For controlling image size in org-mode, you can use:

#+attr_org: :width 300px

in the newest version of org mode, percentage is allowed:

#+attr_org: :width 50%

  • Thanks, and where shall I include this line? after "#+begin_src R" or before "#:results"? Not clear. Thanks. – Emmanuel Goldstein Feb 23 '22 at 07:59
  • Also, how to set both height and width? Can't find height anywhere in the org manual. – Emmanuel Goldstein Feb 23 '22 at 08:08

    You will want to name your code blocks (with `#+name: foo`) in order for this to work for repeated evaluations. Otherwise, you will get new `#+results` sections and you will have to add the `#+attr` section (and delete the old crud) again and again. – NickD Feb 23 '22 at 12:35

    You are only able to set the width: the height is changed automatically keeping the aspect ratio of the image constant. – NickD Feb 23 '22 at 12:36
  • @NickD, Can you give an example? So the #+name comes first and below the #+begin_src R babel line? – Emmanuel Goldstein Apr 04 '22 at 08:03
  • That's correct: then the `#+RESULTS` block should be named as well with the same name. Subsequent evaluations will reuse that named results block, even if you add `#+attr:` lines before the results block. If you don't use named blocks, you'll get a *new* results block because the `#+attr:` line would make the old result block unreachable from the code block. – NickD Apr 04 '22 at 13:49
