closeAllGlassSelects(session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain())

Arguments

session	Shiny session. Defaults to the current reactive domain.

Details

These helpers are useful before switching tabs, opening modals, rebuilding UI, or changing layouts that can otherwise leave a dropdown visually open after its trigger moved or disappeared.

Value

Examples

if (interactive()) {
  library(shiny)

  ui <- fluidPage(
    useGlassTabs(),
    actionButton("close", "Close dropdowns"),
    glassSelect("region", c(North = "north", South = "south")),
    glassMultiSelect("filters", c(A = "a", B = "b"))
  )

  server <- function(input, output, session) {
    observeEvent(input$close, {
      closeAllGlassSelects(session)
    })
  }

  shinyApp(ui, server)
}
