When I knit my R markdown file to create the html output there is something weird going on with the output. When I drag across to see the right hand side of a table or chart the content ends up getting dragged across to the left and merges with the menu. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks

I was moving tablixes around my page and ended up with some stuck inside the header row of another like so;
It definitely isn't overlaid, I have that going on with my other tablixes at the top of the page, as intended. These have somehow merged so when I try to grab the corner handle I have to click it multiple times to turn into the move handle and then only the main table is moveable, I can't grab and move the tables that have merged into the bigger one.
It's stopped the report from running and I can't find a way to take it out, I can't undo past a certain point either as I saved and rebooted my PC before I realised it was this problem that was causing my errors.
Does anyone know any way to take the damn things back out or do I have to redo hours of work? :'(
Refer to the screenshot below.
Click somewhere inside the nested table. You should see the column/row outlines like in the picture
Left click the top left corner handle
Ctrl-x to cut and then ctrl-v to paste somewhere else on the page.
In a broader context, you can use the right-click and then Select option to select any item that is layered with others.
Wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I currently have a report with 5 sub sections of data, each surrounded with a Rectangle.
I am wanting each sub section to appear on a new page and then be able to export to Excel and each section to appear on a new Tab.
I set Page Break / Break Location in each Rectangle to "Start" and label the PageName to what I want to call the Tab. When I run the report the 4 subsections show correctly but I am left with a blank page before I get the 5 section, but when I export it to Excel it appears correctly.
What I want is 5 pages in the report for each section and when exporting I want 5 tabs, can someone tell me where I am going wrong with setting the pagebreaks if that is indeed what I am doing incorrectly.
Thanks
As you are successfully exporting to Excel, but not the report viewer, this suggests your report and page sizes are not correctly set up on your 4th subsection.
When you have report elements that are slightly too large for your report page, the parts that 'overhang' will generate a new page of just the part that overhangs. This is often a very small amount of white space, so it looks like the page is completely blank. When you are exporting to formats such as excel, this does not matter so you correctly see the page breaks as new sheets.
To check whether this is the case, add borders and fills of different colours to all your rectangles and then run the report. On your 4th 'blank' page, if you see any colours or borders you will know which rectangle or report element is growing beyond its page.
I have been trying for the last 2.5 hours to figure this out. I have managed to create a custom navigation bar with three links for my ShinyApp. My ShinyApp consists of 3 charts: a bubble chart, a timeline chart, and a histogram, and I want each respective link in the navigation bar to go to a page containing the appropriate chart. I know about the Navbar function in shiny, but it does not look quite the way I want. Here is mine:
tags$ul(class="main-nav",
list(
tags$li(class="active", tags$a(href="link-to-timeline-chart","Timeline Chart")),
tags$li(tags$a(href="link-to-bubble-chart","Bubble Chart")),
tags$li(tags$a(href="link-to-histogram","Histogram"))
))
I have even considered the option to plot them all in a single page and use the anchor tag to link to the specific part of the page containing the appropriate chart, but that would be compromising too much on my design. I really just want to have separate links for them; each in it's own page.
This is what I'd like to do. I'd like to be able to display several pics in columns (2,3) on the same webpage to compare them on the right hand side of the menu which would be in the margin on the left. Many thanks for your help.
(I've got a scalar.edu site which uses html)
On a http://scalar.usc.edu/ book site in the page edit mode on the toolbar at top of the text edit area there is an option to "Paste from Word". You can create the table you want in MS Word or Libre Office and copy the entire table to clipboard, then paste it using this button. Worked for me with Libre Office 5 Write.
The table borders are by default not visible in Scalar and one way to make this positioning easier is that while in word editor add a letter of text to each cell in the table. Once copied and pasted into scalar you can select the letter with your mouse and delete it and the cursor will be positioned so you can use the toolbar option on the right to Insert Inline Scalar Media Link. You will need to import content to be able to use it.
I have six sub-reports and I would like to arrange them as shown below.
The idea is to show the top one in first page and last two in the second page. When I tried, each report appeared in individual page. Putting first 2 reports ( side by side) in a rectangle and inserting page break after also did not work.
Each sub reports were generated using matrix.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
You would need to put the reports inside of a 'Rectangle' object and limit page break scope there. So if you want the last two only on a new page, put just those two inside a rectangle. Go into the rectangle's properties and set a page break.
