Dear all, please excuse the somewhat special question:
>From within R I create a Tk windows with a list of checkboxes, which can bekome too long for the screen. The obvious solution would be to put all checkboxes into a frame and make that scrollable. Alas, there are (for whatever reason!) no scrollable frames in Tk :-( The usual workaround is to put widgets (my checkboxes) into a textbox, which you _can_ make scrollable. In Tcl/Tk, when $t is a text widget, the code would be as follows: button $t.help -bitmap questhead -command Help $t window create end -window $t.help But what is the R equivalent? From the general naming scheme I would have guessed something like 'tktext.window', but that doesn't exist. Any trick with 'tkconfigure', perhaps? Any help is urgently appreciated ;-) (Which could also be a totally different workaround ...) Cheers Christoph -- Dipl.-Biol.
