Hello All, Learning to use the odfWeave package. I really like the package. It has good documentation, makes some very nice looking tables, and seems to have lots of options for customizing output. There are a few things I'd like to do that don't seem to be covered in the documentation though. So I'm not sure if they're possible or not. Here's a list of some things I'd

What is the correct way to combine multiple calls to odfCat, odfItemize, odfTable etc. inside a function? As an example lets say I have a function that needs to write two paragraphs of text and a list to the resulting odf-document (the real function has much more complex logic, but I don't think thats relevant). My first guess would be: exampleOutput <- function() {

Hello I tried the odfWeave package today, by running the formatting.odt and example.odt files that are included with the package. They both ran fine, but when I try to open them in my OpenOffice (OpenOffice 3.1.1 on Kubuntu 9.10) I get an error "Format error discovered in the file in sub-document content.xml at 1293,124(row,col)." I also tried to open them in MS Word 2003 (Windows

I've been happily building a file with odfWeave, and just as the hour draws nigh for it to be sent off, odfWeave or XML throws the following catastrophic error: ...this is the tail of entirely uneventful processing of input file..... 31 : term xml(label=LR_Fall_Model_Results) 32 : term verbatim(label=LR_Model_Fall_graph) 33 : term xml(label=LR_OMC_tab) 'content_1.xml' has

Hello R masters, I have sent this same message to other lists and none so far could give some light. I was trying to use odfWeave to generate a report from R and Im getting an error that I think is related to latin characters. I looked around and did find some stuff related to this problem about Sweave http://labmoluscos.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/sweave-latex-character-encoding/ but did not find a

Hi, I've been trying to prepare some crosstables for some survey questions for a client. I have been using the CrossTable function in the gmodels package. However, this command only seems to be able to create CrossTables in text documents. I've been trying to use odfTable in odfweave to create tables that are standalone objects in the document that I can then convert to other

Hi, I would like to use odfWeave to output some contingency tables (the output of "table") into OOo. I know I can do this in LaTex (using "latex" in the Hmisc package), but I was wondering if it is possible in OdfWeave. My documentation to odfTable says inputs can only be vector, matrix or data.frame, and I'm having a hard time converting my table into one of these

Hello all, I try the follow test with an odf file. *INPUT: teste.odt* <teste, results=xml>>= x <- matrix(rnorm(6), nc=2) xst <- tableStyles(x, useRowNames = TRUE, header = NULL) odfTable(x, styles=xst, colnames = NULL, useRowNames = TRUE) @ and I get this error: *OUTPUT error:* Error: chunk 1 (label=teste) Error in matrixPaste(textStart, textName, textEnd, x, tagEnd, sep =

Hi guys I'm hoping someone can help me with this. It should be easy but it seems to get stuck for no obvious reason! I am trying to set a report up in odfWeave so that we can re-run the same analysis at 3 time points as the data matures and provide an 'instant' report. To simplify the situation we have two pieces of data: site_id (numerical value 1-9) and reaction (categorical Y or

Dear all, I am doing my first steps with odfWeave. After running the r code (see below), I am trying to open the ODF-document with open office, but I am getting the error message: "The file is damaged, but it can be repaired". If I confirm the question and repair the file with open office, I can open it with the desired output, which seems to be fine. My system: R Version 2.9.1

Hello List, Does anyone have examples of custom formatting of tables in odfweave? I know there is an example of this in the formatting.odt file that comes with the package, but running that through odfweave gives the following error: Error: chunk 13 (label=showTableStyles) Error in names(x) <- value : 'names' attribute [1] must be the same length as the vector [0] What I am really

I'm trying out odfWeave in a Mac environment and getting some odd behavior. Having figured out that the code snippets only work if they're in certain fonts, I was able to get R to run a test document through and produce an output document. After running it, though, I get a warning message: Warning message: In file.remove("styles_2.xml") : cannot remove file

Hi everybody, I don't get odfWeave to run properly. My odt file is as a simple as: ------------------------ Some text. <<echo=FALSE>>= print(1:10) @ ----------------------- The output I get ist the following: ----------------------------------- > odfWeave("roffice.odt", "rofficeOUT.odt") Copying roffice.odt Setting wd to

Dear All, I'm appreciating odfWeave as a nice reporting tool, but I had some pain in producing tables with odfTable command where the first column began with < or > such as in age class heading, for example: <35 35-39 40-49 50-50 >60 In this case, to avoid a content.xml error, I had to change <35 in less than 35 and > 60 in over 60. Anyone knows how to escape those

Good morning R community, I have two questions (and a comment): 1) A problem with odfWeave. I have an odf document with a table that spans multiple pages. Each cell in the table is populated using \sexpr{<R stuff>}. This worked fine on my own machine (windows 7 box using any R2.x.y, for x>=11) and on a colleagues machine (Windows XP box running R2.11.1). However, on a third machine

Hello, I am using the odfWeave packages; I draw a table using the function odfTable: partCols <- gsub(?\\.?, ? ?, names(partenaires)) odfTable(partenaires, useRowNames = FALSE, colnames=partCols) it's working as I have a table in my output file. I would like to know how to change the background color for the header cells. I assuming i have to use tableStyles, but I don't understand

I'm hoping I'm missing some (probably fundamental basic process) which might make my life easier! Lets assume I have a 3 column table summarizing results from a trial from three arms (Arm A, B and C). For each arm there will be a number of pieces of information to report. The simplest example might be to compare this to the demographic comparisons often seen in clinical traisl where you

Dear R and odfWeave users, I am trying to figure out how to control table width and alignment on the page for a table generated by odfTable. Based on reading odfWeave documentation (including formattingOut.odt), here is how I manipulate the styles: st = getStyleDefs() # modify the table style tab = getStyles()$table st[[tab]]$align = "center" # seems to have no effect

Dear all, I'm resurrecting this old post (about 6 monts old, reproduced thereafter) because I have struggled against the same problem and found a solution so that I found it was worth posting for the record. The simple fix when you want to use odfWeave with 7-ZIP as a compressing/decompressing utility under windows is to use the 'x' instead of the 'e' option so as to preserve

Dear R and Sweave users, Is there a way to have optional sections in a Sweave-generated report document, complete with section header(s), text and code chunks? In other words, I'd like for my report to include or omit certain sections based on the data itself. For example, If I examine the input dataset early on in the report and set a variable has_daily_data = TRUE, then I'd like to
