Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

gvisMerge merges two gvis-objects, either next or below each other into one gvis-object. The objects are arranged in a HTML table.

Usage

1
2
gvisMerge(x, y, horizontal = FALSE,
                tableOptions = "border=\"0\"", chartid)

Arguments

x

a gvis-object.

y

a gvis-object.

horizontal

boolean. Default FALSE. If FALSE the two gvis-objects are arranged below each other, otherwise next to each other.

tableOptions

a valid HTML table option string. Default "border=\"0\"".

chartid

character. If missing (default) a random chart id will be generated based on chart type and tempfile

Value

gvisMerge returns list of class "gvis" and "list".

An object of class "gvis" is a list containing at least the following components:

type

Google visualisation type, here 'gvisMerge'

chartid

character id of the chart object. Unique chart ids are required to place several charts on the same page.

html

a list with the building blocks for a page

header

a character string of a html page header: <html>...<body>,

chart

a named character vector of the chart's building blocks:

jsHeader

Opening <script> tag and reference to Google's JavaScript library.

jsData

JavaScript function defining the input data as a JSON object.

jsDrawChart

JavaScript function combing the data with the visualisation API and user options.

jsDisplayChart

JavaScript function calling the handler to display the chart.

jsFooter

End tag </script>.

jsChart

Call of the jsDisplayChart function.

divChart

<div> container to embed the chart into the page.
