Hello,
I've migrated an ADMB application with a user dialog from S to R. The script below will produce a dialog in R, and don't need data to address this issue. It works in terms of capturing user inputs to pass along, no problem running the ADMB program. However some of the options have dependencies. E.g. if we fix a parameter it should not have an estimation phase, but we want the full suite of phases available to the user when the parameter is active. Thus the selection of one listbox is constrained by the selection of another listbox. I had callback functionality in S for this, and am now trying to implement callbacks in tcltk2 using tkbind. At the bottom of the dialog function below I include an attempt at a callback function. Just for one parameter-phase pair and scenario to illustrate. It includes a troubleshooting cat to tell if it works. When I run this it immediately cats the correct value, although this is premature, as I haven't interacted with the dialog yet. More importantly, it subsequently ignores interactions. If I change the parameter definition in one listbox, the callback should verify that the estimation phase is appropriate in the other listbox and change it if not. But beyond running the callback function when the dialog is created, it does not appear to be active after that. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong? require(tcltk2) OtofanGUI=function() { OtofanR=tktoplevel() tktitle(OtofanR) <- "Age-Related Data Analysis with OTOFAN" tkgrid(tklabel(OtofanR,text="DATA SELECTION &
