In case anyone has a similar issue, this problem was related to how the results were being sent to the file.
The offending code chunk used: <<moretest, results=xml, echo=false>>= x<- 5 x @ which writes out the text "5" without any XML around it. When OO opens the document up, it ignores this text (instead of crashing) and shows nothing. This works fine: <<moretest2, results=xml, echo=false>>= x<- 5 odfCat(x) @ ______________________________________________ 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.
