rgl (version 0.99.16)

elementId2Prefix: Use widget with old-style controls.

Description

The rglwidget control is designed to work in the htmlwidgets framework. Older rgl web pages that used writeWebGL or knitr used a different method of linking the controls to the scene. This is a partial bridge between the two systems.

Usage

elementId2Prefix(elementId, prefix = elementId)

Arguments

elementId

An element identifier from a rglwidget call.

prefix

The prefix to use in the old-style control.

Value

This function generates Javascript code, so it should be used in an results = "asis" block in a knitr document.

Details

Because of the order of initialization, this isn't a perfect bridge. The old-style control will not set the scene to the initial value from the control, but subsequent changes to the control should be passed to the widget.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
rglwidget(elementId = "thewidget")
elementId2Prefix("thewidget", "theprefix")
subsetSlider(subsets = as.list(1:5),
             prefixes = "theprefix", subscenes = 1)
# }
