Hi, I've been learning how to use R TclTk in Windows over the last few months. I have recently put together a collection of examples of some common widgets and their corresponding R code, at http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/ I would be interested in any feedback - Is it useful? Does it contain any significant errors or bad coding style? Does anyone else want to

Hello, I'm trying to write a function using tcltk to interactively modify a plot and gather locator() data. I've read Peter's articles in Rnews, the help pages in tcltk, http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/, plus a post in R-help sometime ago, but haven't found a solution. The idea goes something like this: require(tcltk) testplot <- function() { getcoords

I would like to display output to a tcltk window from e.g. a call to summary(). I tried to get something else than oneliners into a text window of the kind found at: http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/TextWindows.html But without success.

Has anyone written a matrix editor or data.entry() replacement using the Tk table widget? I've been playing around with the examples at http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/tktable.html and making some progress, but I'd rather not spend much time on this if someone else has already done it.

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

I would like to use a tclArray: mytkarray <- tclArray() as the variable for a table: table1 <- tkwidget(f1, 'table', variable= mytkarray) but if I include character strings with embedded spaces, I get braces appearing in the table. I can remove them using a non-R tclarray, (the difference between the first example of http://www.sciviews.org/_rgui/tcltk/Tktable.html and

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 all, i'm searching for a tutorial on the tcltk extension to R. I've looked at the pages linked to the R web site, and found the examples extremely useful, but I'd like something more. Does anyone know about other documents regarding this subject? Thank you very much ciao luca

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 need some help figuring out how to make a pop-up message box appear with error messages when running a script using Rterm. Windows XP R2.10.1 ...possibly with the ability to either continue or abort the script? Thanks. M -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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

Greetings Friends: I am trying to find a widget or some other method to let me interrogate a 2-D image using the mouse. I have a data.frame that I can visualize using image() in R. I would like to point to a pixel and have its coordinates displayed. I've read Peter Dalgaard's primer on R-Tcl/Tk, R-News, 1(3):27-31, and his update R-News2(3):25-27, but am still struggling. Can anyone

Hi, We have a few R scripts, that have a minimalistic GUI Interface using winDialog() calls. Is there any cross-plattform equivalent we can port to, such that the code will run on both Windows and Unix ? I thought about either tcltk or gtk Stuff. I was astonished that I couldn't find anything similar that had been implemented since the 0.99 release, or do I miss something obvius ? Yours,

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

Hi, I have an interface from R to the wxPython GUI toolkit which works under Windows: http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/folders/james/wxPython/ (as long as you build RSPython with a shared (not static) Python library).

[PLEASE REPLY _OFF_ THE LIST, i.e. DON'T CC to r-help at ...] Hi, I don't see this sort of thing very often on the mailing lists, so list moderators and others should feel free to tell me if it breaches list etiquette and/or delete my post if necessary. But I can't see what harm it could do... I am just wondering approximately how many people use / have used some of the R stuff
