Details
This is a version of select.list
implemented as a Tk
list box plus OK
and Cancel
buttons. There will be a
scrollbar if the list is too long to fit comfortably on the screen.
The dialog box is modal, so a selection must be made or cancelled before the R session can proceed.
If Tk is version 8.5 or later, themed widgets will be used.
Value
A character vector of selected items. If multiple
is false and
no item was selected (or Cancel
was used), ""
is
returned. If multiple
is true and no item was selected (or
Cancel
was used) then a character vector of length 0 is returned.
