Dear Felix, Thanks. That was most useful. I am having trouble though exporting values of variables to the R environment from within the playwith.
Say I need to do a claculation by setting up an extra button within playwith(xyplot(dat[,c(1,i)]), parameters = list(i = 1:100, do_something = function(playState) print(playState$env$i), do_something_else = function(playstate) ###Export here mean value of sequence playState$env$i### ) ) Can I pass the value of this to the rest of R ? I could not find something in the help pages. Can you direct me to it please?
