Dear R-help list members, I'm writing a package using tcltk. Thanks to Peter Dalgaard's excellent work on the tcltk package, almost everything has gone very smoothly. I'm stymied, however, by the following problem: I want to incorporate a bitmap image, stored as an xbm file, in a widget. To take a simple example, top <- tktoplevel() tkgrid(tklabel(top,

Hi everybody, I am trying to write a simple progress display based on a tcltk toplevel. My first approach was to use the progressBar widget from the BWidget library but since this is not available on every system (missing on at least almost all windows systems, I guess...) I wanted to have a backup there. So my second strategy was to use a simple toplevel with a label and update the tclvariable

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')

The following code should give me (at least that's what I think) two list boxes with their individual scrollbars. But instead both scrollbars stick to the same listbox even though they work as they should (scroll individual listboxes). When I remove all the widgets on top everything works perfectly. Any help would be highly apprecciated. ps: all subsequent listboxes and scrollbars work

I've been able to figure out on my own how to do what I need in the largely undocumented tcltk package, but I've finally hit a wall. I can't even think of any sufficiently specific search terms to use for this. I'm trying to make the widgets in my tk window resize when the window is resized by clicking and dragging on its corners or edges. Instead they stay exactly where they

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 <-

Hello, I am trying to write a tcltk based program that plots/manipulates xts/xoo time series objects. I have the code I used from ## http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/tkrplot.html : ## require(quantmod) require(tcltk) library(tkrplot) Sys.setenv(TZ="GMT") getSymbols("^GSPC", from = "1960-01-01") Myhscale <- 2.5 # Horizontal scaling

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

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 <-

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

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

Friends: I am a long-time R user, learning tcl/tk, and am tying myself in knots over something that should be simple. I want to create a frame and put that frame inside the toplevel frame. This works (i.e. it places text in col 1, and the corresponding entry box in column 2) and later frame.2 resides where it should in the toplevel frame. tkgrid(tklabel(frame.2, text="FACTOR column

HI, (1) ...thanks for the last comments to tcltk & Win2000. (2) - i'm newbie in tcl/tk but would like learn fast and develop (learning by doing) a tcl/tk clusterAnalysis application which combine some clusterMethods from different Rpackages. i use the tkttest.R example as "reference" and become not finished for my "first" step???? (3) how is it possible that the code

Hello companions!!! I have a function that creates a Radio Buttons, and I need that this function return the selected value in the Radio Buttons. I would like that, if somebody know as I could return the value, you say me as do it. Next, I show the function function1<-function(){ require(tcltk) tt <- tktoplevel() rb1 <- tkradiobutton(tt) rb2 <- tkradiobutton(tt) rbValue <-

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 <-

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.)

Hi List, Can anyone tell me how could i put the "BACK" button in the following code, just under the "AAA" menu? I want this button to go back to the previous page, and since it has nothing to do with the "1" and "2" buttons, i want it somehow separated from these two buttons, but i don't know how. I searched the web for some examples but my results

Hi everyone, I have different listboxes in the same toplevel window. The problem is, if I select (by left clicking) one of those listbox elements, the current selection in the other listboxes is cleared! Anybody knows how I can prevent this?

The following gives an error message: library(tcltk) win <- list(env="A") tt <- tktoplevel() but <- tkbutton(tt, text="X", command=expression(tkdestroy(tt))) tkgrid(but) however, if one comments out the win line (and removes the win variable) then it works. It seems that tcltk is making use of a variable called win with a component name of env and I just happened

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 <-
