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 <-

Hello, everyone. I have the following problem with TclTk: I create some windows and want to change their position with geometry manage (sometimes they will be centered, sometimes not). If the toplevel is created and its dimensions are gathered via 'tkwinfo', I get (usually) correct values. However, if this window is created by a function (in the following example, by 'ask.format')

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

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)

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

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

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''ve written a small app implementing SplitterWindow and have a problem with specifying the sash position on Windows. At the moment, I call split_vertically and pass it a positive integer for position. This works as expected on FreeBSD and Linux (Ubuntu and Debian), but seems to have no effect on Windows. Is there something particular I need to be doing to get this to work on

Hi again, trying more tests, I give some more info: In MEMBER machine, when I run winbind in a terminal window (WINDOW1) not daemonized, that is, winbindd -FSi and call wbinfo -a in another terminal window (WINDOW2), in WINDOW1 I see two lines with this error: prs_mem_get: reading data of size 8650916 would overrun buffer by 8650420 bytes. Also, trying to capture the network packets out

Hello, I'm very new in working with tcl/tk in R and have a problem which will probably sound silly to most of you. Here is the code I have problems with: readcelfiles <- function() { require(tcltk) tt <- tktoplevel() tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="Choose a directory!")) OnOK <- function() { fileDir<-tclvalue(tkchooseDirectory()) data.raw <-

Hello, I'm very much a newbie in R and more so in tcltk so apologies if this question is stupid. Basically I am trying to use the combobox example found here: http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/DropDown.html . What I want to do is in that example get fruitChoice as a variable in R in general. When I run that code, however, and the ask for fruitChoice it says

Hello everyone, this is my first post here and I hope I signed up correctly and someone will take me by the hand and help me out. I am new to R and cannot figure out what to do here... ... I want to have an User Interface that requests input. I want to save this input to a variable to use it later on. I was able to do this with a modalDiaglog (

Hi - I'm creating a package of database tools. A function in the package requires the username and password as input to the function in order to initially connect to the target database(s). Of course, this poses a significant security issue given the possible retention of the function statement in cleartext. I did not readily encounter a package meant to mask input from the user nor do I

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

Hi all, Roger Peng and Jason Turner's suggestion with ImageMagick seem to be the simplest "dirty" way to get the problem solved. But I ran into yet another interesting but quite round-about way to solve the problem (partially). Through tcltk package, one can read in the gif image with > x <- tkcmd("image", "create", "photo", file=mypic.gif)

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

I'm trying to read a binary file created by a fortran code using readBin and readChar. Everything reads fine (integers and strings) except for double precision numbers, they are read as huge or very small number (1E-250,...). I tried various endianness, swap, But nothing has worked so far. I also tried on R 64 bit for linux and windows (R 2.14) and R 2.11 on windows XP 32 bit. Any help would

I searched the web and the list archives for a solution to this, but didn't see anything, so here goes. I'm new to tcltk. I'm trying to change the contents of a tkentry widget when a button is pressed. Once I get that working, the widget will be read only to the user. Here is some toy code: ############### require(tcltk) thisEnv=environment() tt<-tktoplevel() Name <-
