progress_pikachu: Display pikachu as a progress bar.
In switchboard: An Agile Widget Engine for Real-Time, Dynamic Visualizations

Description Arguments Value Usage See Also Examples

The progress_pikachu widget displays pikachu as a progressBar. He's the best.

`eavesdrop`	The variable to track with a progress bar.
`maximum`	The maximum value of `eavesdrop` that marks the end of what to progress track.
`size`	A number used to designate the size (magnification) of the widget. The default is set to `1` which is 80 by 80 pixels. For example, setting to `3` will results in a widget 3-times the default size (240 by 240 pixels) and will occupy a grid area of 3 by 3.
`placeOnGrid`	A row by column coordinate (e.g., `c(row-number, column-number)`) of a grid that designates the position to draw the widget on the `switchboard`. Use `showGrid()` to help organize widget placement on dashboard. The default places the first widget in pipe chain to the `c(1, 1)` position, and all following on the same row stacked to the right.
`updates`	The number of times the widget is to be updated (e.g., when it be modified/changed). The default updates the widget 100 times. Increase number for smoother progress bar animation.
`delay`	Pause each update of the switchboard. Default has no delay, values are in seconds (e.g., `delay = 0.01` results in 0.01 second delay with each iteration).
`honest`	When `TRUE`, it updates the widget by the true progression value. The default (`FALSE`) has a cosmetic modification to the progression value that helps update it in a prettier way.
`closeAtMaximum`	Functions like `switchboard_close()` by closing the switchboard window when the eavesdropped value equals maximum. NOTE: if a widget has `closeAtMaximum = TRUE`, then this widget MUST be placed at the end (i.e., last widget) of the pipe chain.
`fill`	The direction of how things are animated when displaying progression. The default is `horizontal`, which tracks progression from left to right (maximum), but `vertical` can also be used for progress to occur in a bottom to up (maximum) animation.
