R Shiny: Avoid scrollbars when using googleVis charts in tabPanels - html

Question

Strangely enough I am getting a scrollbar on the right side of the page when I run the below shiny app:
shinyUI(
fluidPage(
tabsetPanel(
tabPanel("Plot", htmlOutput("test")),
tabPanel("Summary"),
tabPanel("Table")
)
)
)
library(googleVis)
library(shiny)
shinyServer(function(input, output, session) {
output$test <- renderGvis({
gvisBubbleChart(Fruits, idvar="Fruit",
xvar="Sales", yvar="Expenses",
colorvar="Year", sizevar="Profit",
options=list(
hAxis='{minValue:75, maxValue:125}',
vAxis='{minValue:0, maxValue:250}'
,height=600,width=600)
)
})
})
If I change from tabsetPanel layout to a pageWithSidebar layout the plot appears normally without the scrollbars.
On a seperate note, if I do not specify the width and height in the options list I am getting two scrollbars, one vertical and one horizontal.
Is it possible to use googleVis charts within tabsetPanels without the scrollbars?

You can set the overflow to hidden by adding a style argument to the tabPanel call:
library(googleVis)
library(shiny)
runApp(
list(ui = fluidPage(
tabsetPanel(
tabPanel("Plot", htmlOutput("test"), style = "overflow:hidden;"),
tabPanel("Summary"),
tabPanel("Table")
)
)
, server = function(input, output, session) {
output$test <- renderGvis({
gvisBubbleChart(Fruits, idvar="Fruit",
xvar="Sales", yvar="Expenses",
colorvar="Year", sizevar="Profit",
options=list(
hAxis='{minValue:75, maxValue:125}',
vAxis='{minValue:0, maxValue:250}'
,height=600,width=600)
)
})
})
)
