First, you should load recharts:

library(recharts)

1 Introduction

The default position of toolbox is 1 o’clock.

The recommended approach to use setToolbox is chart %>% setToolbox(...).

2 Function Call

All the function names have two forms: small camel and lowercase_underscore (endorsed by Hadley Wickham). To be lazy, we also provide short forms as well (e.g., tb for toolbox).

setToolbox(chart, show = TRUE, language = "cn", controls = c("mark",
  "dataZoom", "dataView", "magicType", "restore", "saveAsImage"), pos = 1,
  bgColor = "rgba(0,0,0,0)", borderColor = "#ccc", borderWidth = 0,
  padding = 5, itemGap = 10, itemSize = 16, color = c("#1e90ff",
  "#22bb22", "#4b0082", "#d2691e"), disableColor = "#ddd",
  effectiveColor = "red", showTitle = TRUE, textStyle = NULL, ...)

set_toolbox(chart, show = TRUE, language = "cn", controls = c("mark",
  "dataZoom", "dataView", "magicType", "restore", "saveAsImage"), pos = 1,
  bgColor = "rgba(0,0,0,0)", borderColor = "#ccc", borderWidth = 0,
  padding = 5, itemGap = 10, itemSize = 16, color = c("#1e90ff",
  "#22bb22", "#4b0082", "#d2691e"), disableColor = "#ddd",
  effectiveColor = "red", showTitle = TRUE, textStyle = NULL, ...)

setTB(chart, show = TRUE, language = "cn", controls = c("mark",
  "dataZoom", "dataView", "magicType", "restore", "saveAsImage"), pos = 1,
  bgColor = "rgba(0,0,0,0)", borderColor = "#ccc", borderWidth = 0,
  padding = 5, itemGap = 10, itemSize = 16, color = c("#1e90ff",
  "#22bb22", "#4b0082", "#d2691e"), disableColor = "#ddd",
  effectiveColor = "red", showTitle = TRUE, textStyle = NULL, ...)

set_tb(chart, show = TRUE, language = "cn", controls = c("mark",
  "dataZoom", "dataView", "magicType", "restore", "saveAsImage"), pos = 1,
  bgColor = "rgba(0,0,0,0)", borderColor = "#ccc", borderWidth = 0,
  padding = 5, itemGap = 10, itemSize = 16, color = c("#1e90ff",
  "#22bb22", "#4b0082", "#d2691e"), disableColor = "#ddd",
  effectiveColor = "red", showTitle = TRUE, textStyle = NULL, ...)

3 Showcase

g <- echartr(iris, Sepal.Width, Petal.Width, Species)
g

Initially toolbox is shown. Let’s turn if off.

g %>% setToolbox(show=FALSE)

The controls’ tooltip is in Chinese by default. If you want them to be in English, set language ‘en’.

g %>% setToolbox(language='en')

Relocate the toolbox

g %>% setToolbox(pos=3)

Only show some of the control widgets.

g %>% setToolbox(controls=c('mark', 'dataView'))

Customize the format.

g %>% setToolbox(textStyle=textStyle(
    fontFamily='Times New Roman', color='purple', fontWeight='bold', 
    fontSize=16), bgColor='yellow', itemGap=20)

Customize the color of the controls.

g %>% setToolbox(color=getColFromPal('hc'))
