slidedesignerGUI: Graphical User Interface for slide design layout

In SlideDesignerGUI: Slide Designer GUI Package

Description

Graphical User Interface for recording layout of a slide design.

Usage

slidedesignerGUI()
sdui()

Details

The function slidedesignerGUI launches a Graphical User Interface for recording the layout of positive and negative controls of a slide design, used with the SuperCurve package. The GUI uses Tk widgets (via the R-Tcl/Tk interface by Peter Dalgaard) in order to provide a simple interface.

The function sdui is an alias for the aforementioned function.

Resources

The Tk options database is loaded from user-specific defaults files, such as ‘.Xdefaults’, and resource databases loaded into the X server. The package will attempt to load its resources upon startup, following the X11R5 method of merging app-default files from multiple sources. The standard X11 paths are searched first, followed by paths specified by the environment variables XFILESEARCHPATH, XAPPLRESDIR, XUSERFILESEARCHPATH, respectively. Unlike X11, ALL matching files will be loaded, not just the first.

One way to make use of the options database is to create a file named ‘slidedesignerGUI.ad’ in your home directory, specifying any desired resources. Set your XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environment variable within R with the command:
Sys.setenv(XUSERFILESEARCHPATH=file.path(path.expand("~"), "%N.ad"))
