If you're referring to the plots pane, does this setting do what you want? (aspect ratio -> fill)

RStudio is not being abandoned; it's still being actively developed and is getting some of Positron's features, most recently support for the Air code formatter and nicer treatment for errors/warnings in the console.

I'm no fan of the tariffs but I think the glut of incredibly cheap toys from overseas has been bad for parents and kids. I would welcome a world with fewer toys, more carefully purchased.
