Re: [R] The code itself disappears after starting to execute the for loop
I don't have a solution to this problem, but as I have also struggled with what I think is the same problem, I tried to find a small reproducible example. The problem seems indeed to be with the progress bar, which will clear the console after x iterations when the progress bar is called in a function which is wrapped in a loop. In the example below, this happened for me every ~44th iteration. Interestingly, it seems that reduction of the sleep times in this function increases the number of iterations before clearing. testit <- function(x = sort(runif(20)), ...) { pb <- txtProgressBar(...) for(i in c(0, x, 1)) {Sys.sleep(0.2); setTxtProgressBar(pb, i)} Sys.sleep(1) close(pb) } iter = 0 while (TRUE) {testit(style = 3); iter = iter + 1; print(paste("done", iter))} Is this only a problem for a few, or is it reproducible? Any hints to what the problem could be? I have seen this in some versions of R, and could also reproduce on a freshly installed 3.3.2.

Re: [R] The code itself disappears after starting to execute the for loop
Thanks for helping Jim. I'm actually using the pbapply function together with the print function within a loop. In earlier versions, the progress bar and the output of the print function used to appear after each iteration of the loop. But with the 3.3.1. Version nothing appears, instead the console turns white and the cursor turns blue ( busy) and I know nothing about the progress of the running code. I just want to see the bar and the output of the print function as I used to, any help? Thanks in advance.

Re: [R] The code itself disappears after starting to execute the for loop
A little more information would help. How exactly are out creating the output to the console? Are you using 'print', 'cat' or something else? Do you have buffered output checked on the GUI (you probably don't want it checked or you output will be delayed till the buffer is full -- this might be the cause of your problem.

[R] The code itself disappears after starting to execute the for loop
Hi all, I've a question concerning the R 3.3.1 version. I have a long code that I used to run on versions earlier to the 3.3.1 version, and when I copied the code to the R console, I can still see the code while the loop is executing , along with the output printed after each iteration of the loop. Now, on the 3.3.1 version, after I copy the code to the console, it disappears and I only see the printed output of only one iteration at a time, that is, after the first iteration the printed output disappears ( though it's only 6 lines, just giving me some guidance, not a long output). This is causing me some problems, so I don't know if there is a general option for R that enables me to still see the code and the output of all the iterations till the loop is over, as was the case with earlier R versions. I didn't include the code as it's a long one.
