Development version (version with hcpxy_update_point) causing error (didn't before)

[zross]

@jbkunst sorry to bother you. You very helpfully answered a question on stackoverflow related to selecting a point. You directed me to the function hcpxy_update_point which was working great!

But I'm seeing that even your simple example in that stackoverflow post no longer works -- I pasted it below. As a result our app, which was working, is no longer working.

I narrowed the issue to the development version by commenting out the hcpxy_update_point and using the CRAN version and the app works (except for the hcpxy_update_point - functionality).

I'm seeing commits in highcharter related to updating jQuery to v 3.5.1, could this be the issue?

library(shiny)
library(highcharter)

ui <- function(){
  div(
    selectInput('id', label = 'select', choices = 1:3, selected = 2),
    highchartOutput("plot")
  )
}

server <- function(session, input, output){

  output$plot <- renderHighchart({
    hc <- highchart() %>% 
      hc_chart(events = list(load = JS("function(){this.series[0].points[2].select()}"))) %>% 
      hc_add_series(
        data.frame(x = 1:3, y = 1:3),
        "scatter",
        hcaes(x, y),
        id = "someid",
        ) %>%
      hc_plotOptions(
        allowPointSelect = TRUE
      )

    hc
  })

  observeEvent(input$id, {

    id_0_based <- as.numeric(input$id) - 1

    highchartProxy("plot") %>%
      # set all points unselected `selected = FALSE`
      hcpxy_update_point(id = "someid", 0:2, selected = FALSE) %>% 
      # then set to selected the _selected_ point
      hcpxy_update_point(
        id = "someid",
        id_point = id_0_based, 
        selected = TRUE
        )
  })
}

shinyApp(ui, server)

Hi @zross

Sorry for the delay.

I could not replicate the error. Do you still have problems?

I'm not sure it's Jquery. What does the browser console show?

Regards,

Hmmm! This seems to be working for me now. Odd since it wasn't just my local set up it was also a deployed shiny app, but I'm seeing that app is back up also. Thanks for looking into it, I don't know what the issue was. Oddly, as I mentioned above, the app was working with the non-development version of highcharter and not the dev version. In any case, this can be closed. Thanks again.
