Shiny UI elements are available based on the object passed to `display()`. These allow the user to modify how the plot is displayed, and for some objects, modify or subset the data and send it back to the console. ## Methods Many of the display method will have a button that allows you return subset values back to the R session. To use these, couple the intial call with an assignment operator like this: ```{r dataframe_demo, eval=FALSE} mtcars2 <- display(mtcars) ``` Once you leave the diplay web gui, the results of the above interaction will be captured inside of mtcars2. ## Acknowledgments Shiny <br/> Joe Cheng and Winston Chang <br/> http://www.rstudio.com/shiny/ <br/> Force Layout <br/> Jeff Allen <br/> https://github.com/trestletech/shiny-sandbox/tree/master/grn <br/> gridSVG <br/> Simon Potter <br/> http://sjp.co.nz/projects/gridsvg/ <br/> Zoom/Pan JavaScript libraries <br/> John Krauss <br/> https://github.com/talos/jquery-svgpan <br/> Andrea Leofreddi <br/> https://code.google.com/p/svgpan/ <br/> JavaScript Color Chooser <br/> Jan Odvarko <br/> http://jscolor.com/ <br/> Data-Driven Documents <br/> Michael Bostock <br/> http://d3js.org/ <br/> Javascript for returning values from data.frames <br/> Kirill Savin <br/> Help with the display method for data.frames <br/> Dan Tenenbaum <br/>
