A student entered some data with text characters like epsilon and alpha. On her Windows system, the Greek letters did not display properly in a plot. There were some ordinary ASCII instead. I asked her to send me the code so I could test. For me, the plot looks ok on the screen. Format1 <- c(320,500,700,1000,500,320,700,500,320) Format2 <- c(800,1000,1150,1400,1500,1650,1800,2300,2500)

Dear R-devel list members, I've encountered a problem with my Rcmdr package under Windows XP and could use some advice: The Rcmdr package uses the tcltk package to create menus and dialog boxes. My standard procedure when a dialog is created is to grab the focus -- e.g., by tkfocus(top) tkgrab(top) (Here, top is a top-level window -- say, containing one or more scrollbars.)

Hello, I am sorry if this is an answered question, but I did my homework for a long while and couldn't figure out a way to retrieve data entry from a model dialog. In one of the examples compiled by James Wettenhall: odalDialog <- function(title, question, entryInit, entryWidth = 20, returnValOnCancel = "ID_CANCEL") { dlg <- tktoplevel() tkwm.deiconify(dlg)

I am the maintainer of a Bioconductor package (affylmGUI) which uses tcltk. It freezes inconsistently on MS Windows, but not Mac or Unix. see details below. After considerable testing I have reduced the problem from a few thousand lines of code to 30 lines! If you paste the following lines of code into an R window: testGUI <- function(){ require(tcltk) MainWindow <-

I don't know if this is a bug. I can reproduce the following on Ubuntu 12.04.2 and 13.04 64-bit with R version 3.0.1 and with r63479. There is no difference if R is patched with the fix for PR#15407 or not, although without the fix there are more ways to trigger this. I can reproduce with the following: 1. Open R in gnome-terminal or xterm 2. Run 'library(tcltk)' 3. Run

Dear list members, I've been puzzling over how best to clean up the code for my Rcmdr package. In particular, there's a lot of repetitive tcltk code in the package, and as Martin M?chler has pointed out to me, this makes the package difficult to maintain. If R were Lisp, I'd use macros for much of the clean up. My efforts to do similar things with R functions has run into problems

Hello, I use package "tcltk" to do some GUI programming, and want to find a function which can do the operation "click a button", just like using a mouse to click. If tkevent.generate can do that? I tried it as below, but failed. Please give me a hint! tt <- tktoplevel() tkwm.title(tt,"Simple Dialog") onOK <- function(){print("OK")} onCancel <-

Dear all, I'm trying to use tcltk to build a small user-interface and couter the problem: It seems that sometimes the dialog box will be minimized automatically though I want it to be on top of the screen all the time. For example, when runing the following code, if you type in "a1", "a2", "a3", etc when being asked for an integer, the program is supposed to

Hello; I've got several radiobuttons in tcltk with the following sintaxis: tk2.rd <- /tkradiobutton(/frame4,command=plotDialog1,text="New Q plot", value=2, variable=OUTPLOTtclVar/)/ All the buttons call the same function "plotDialog1". With the objective of call a dialog to select some plotting options. When I select one of the radiobuttons and the windows with the

Hi, I am having trouble debugging this one. The code is attached below, but it seems to be a problem at the C-tk interface. If I run this 1 time there are no problems if I run it more than once I start to get warnings that increase in multiples of 11 everytime I run it. Here is a sample session > source("clrramp2.r") Loading required package: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done

We installed BMR boot server version 6.0 on DELL server. This DELL server have CENTOS 3.7 in it. We got error message when we tried to use "bmrsrtadm".

In Windows, Tcl/Tk programs running under the tcltk package can update too frequently: for exmaple, we might go through a long sequence of operations to construct a complex display, and in Windows each addition will be shown separately. To work around this, I've added a function "tclServiceMode" which serves as an R interface to the "Tcl_SetServiceMode" function in the

1. I want to change the mouse cursor over my window into a wait/watch icon while R computes. Can this be done directly? Some ancient tcltk mailing lists said change the cursor over every widget in the window: foreach widget [winfo children $window] { $widget config -cursor watch } To do this I'll need a list of

Hi, I've been playing with the tcltk package. It's very nice to have access to buttons, menus etc. now. Thank you! Alas, I also have questions: In Tcl everything is a string [*]. This is not the case in R, of course. So why are return values of tk commands still strings? (Is there any other reason than speed or "package is work in progress"?) Example: > tt <-

Dear list members, Is it possible via a suitable tcltk command to get the *current* width, in characters, of a Tk text widget that has been resized with the mouse? In the following code, the reported width of the text widget doesn't change, even though it has been resized. I can, however, get the current width in pixels: > library(tcltk) > top <- tktoplevel() > textWindow <-

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this email. I'm using rsync to make a copy of my Netbackup Catalogs to an offsite server for DRP. I have narrowed the problem down to a few sub-directories that contains 16 directories each and in each directory there are about 37 files. None of the files are larger than 300MB. In fact, most of them are around 1K-5MB. The problem is, rsync
