[R] venn.diagram, error message: Incorrect number of elements

[Fix Ace]

Hello, there,
I have 6 dataset and trying to draw a venn.diagram using R VennDiagram package, but got this error message. Could anybody figure out why?

Thanks

The venn.diagram() function in the package VennDiagram only works with
sizes up to 5.

That isn't horribly clear from the help file, but quite explicit in the code:

if (0 == length(x) | length(x) > 5) {
stop("Incorrect number of elements.", call. = FALSE)
}

If you really need 6, you could presumably look at the way that
venn.diagram() works and add in your own 6-handling code.
