On another note, I got a bit confused the other day trying to learn more about layout from the density example given in the vignette. I was trying to get the following layout:
<<inline: density_layout.png>>
Basically, move the bandwidth slider below the graph and spanning the whole width of the window. Modifying the layout section of the code as: ---<---------------cut here---------------start-------------->--- window <- gwindow("gWidgetsDensity") bigGroup <- ggroup(container=window) vGroup <- ggroup(horizontal=FALSE, container=bigGroup) hGroup <- ggroup(horizontal=FALSE, container=bigGroup) tmp <- gframe("Distribution", container=vGroup) add(tmp, distribution) tmp <- gframe("Sample size", container=vGroup) add(tmp,sampleSize) tmp <- gframe("Kernel", container=vGroup) add(tmp,kernel) add(bigGroup, ggraphics()) tmp <- gframe("Bandwidth adjust", container=hGroup) add(tmp,bandwidthAdjust, expand=TRUE) ---<---------------cut here---------------end---------------->--- Why is the slider still packed side by side, when I'm specifying 'horizontal=FALSE' in hGroup? I also notice that one needs to do something in a widget to produce the initial plot, i.e. a default initial the plot is not produced. Thanks for any further pointers, -- Seb
