Re: [R] Problem with RGtk2 & Rattle
hI aLL I feel with the great advice I am getting from Felix & Graham, that I am finally making progress & I feel that finally I have identified the REAL PROBLEM. Of cause I am unsure how I will solve it but that is another story. The "trace" follows after following Grahams latest advice Error in normalizePath(path) : path[1]="C:\Program Files\R\R-2.9.1\library/RSvgDevice": The system cannot find the file specified > local({pkg <- select.list(sort(.packages(all.available = TRUE))) + if(nchar(pkg)) library(pkg, character.only=TRUE)}) Loading required package: pmml Loading required package: XML Rattle: Graphical interface for data mining using R.

Type "rattle()" to shake, rattle, and roll your data. > rattle() Error in .RGtkCall("R_setGObjectProps", obj, value, PACKAGE = "RGtk2") : Invalid property tooltip-text! There appears to be a problem with the path for the RSvgDevice, but I don't know where that is stored & how I can change / edit the path Thanks for your patience and understanding Wayne Graham Williams wrote: > > 2009/8/1 Felix Andrews > >> Um, it sounds as if you are trying to install glade-3.4.3-win32.zip >> into R as a package... but it is not an R package!! >> >> GTK+/Glade is a system library to be installed into Windows. >> You should download the .exe (not the .zip) >> http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gladewin32/gtk-dev-2.12.9-win32-2.exe >> and run it to install it. >> >> By the way, problems with rattle are best sent to the rattle-users >> mailing >> list: >> http://groups.google.com/group/rattle-users >> >> -Felix >> > > Also Wayne, I hope you are following the instructions at > > http://datamining.togaware.com/survivor/Install_MS_Windows.html > > If there is any ambiguity there please let me know so I can make it > clearer. > I know of many who have installed Rattle following these, so they should > work. > > (And thanks for the help Felix.) > > Regards, > Graham > > > >> >> >> -- >> Felix Andrews / å®ç¦ç« >> Postdoctoral Fellow >> Integrated Catchment Assessment and Management (iCAM) Centre >> Fenner School of Environment and Society [Bldg 48a] >> The Australian National University >> Canberra ACT 0200 Australia >> M: +61 410 400 963 >> T: + 61 2 6125 1670 >> E: felix.andr...@anu.edu.au >> CRICOS Provider No. 00120C >> -- >> http://www.neurofractal.org/felix/ >> >> __ >> R-help@r-project.org mailing list >> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help >> PLEASE do read the posting guide >> http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html >> and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >> > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > > __ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > > - Dr D.

Re: [R] Problem with RGtk2 & Rattle
Hi Graham I used the "update packages" option to get the latest version of all the packages I use in R - so whatever the latest versions is what I have. I am not sure if I can ascertain the versions of the various component packages.

[R] Problem with RGtk2 & Rattle
HI Apologies for previously trying to post this question onto the Dev forum. I have recently update my versions of R and related packages. When I try to use rattle the following message appears "Error in .RGtkCall("R_setGObjectProps", obj, value, PACKAGE = "RGtk2") : Invalid property tooltip-text!" I have downloaded and installed the latest available version of RGtk2, so I am at a loss to explain this error, or more importantly what I need to do to overcome it Thanks for any suggestions Regards Wayne - Dr D.
