Hi,

could it be the case that some of the bindings do not work anymore due to changes in recent Shiny versions? From your documentation I expected the following Shiny toy example to work:

require(rNVD3)

runApp(list( ui = pageWithSidebar( headerPanel("rNVD3: Interactive Charts from R using NVD3.js"),

sidebarPanel(
  selectInput(inputId = "gender",
              label = "Choose Gender",
              choices = c("Male", "Female"),
              selected = "Male"),
  selectInput(inputId = "type",
              label = "Choose Chart Type",
              choices = c("multiBarChart", "multiBarHorizontalChart"),
              selected = "multiBarChart"),
  checkboxInput(inputId = "stack",
                label = strong("Stack Bars?"),
                value = FALSE)
),
mainPanel(
  showOutput("myChart1"),
  showOutput("myChart2") 
)

), server = function(input, output) { output$myChart1 <- renderChart({ hair_eye = as.data.frame(HairEyeColor) p6 <- nvd3Plot(Freq ~ Hair | Eye, data = subset(hair_eye, Sex == input$gender), type = input$type, id = 'myChart', width = 800) p6$chart(color = c('brown', 'blue', '#594c26', 'green'), stacked = input$stack) return(p6) })

output$myChart2 <- renderChart({
  p3 <- nvd3Plot(~ cyl, data = mtcars, type = 'pieChart')
  return(p3)
})

} ))

The bar plots appear in some browsers e.g. IE is ok, but in chrome 36.0.1985.143 this doesn't work. The pie chart works in no browser I tried (Chrome, Firefox or IE).

I'm aware of your rCharts package. However, I couldn't get it to work there either.

ps: for arcane reasons I'm most interested in using a flexible pie chart in Shiny, as an alternative to the googleVis version.

pie charts not working in new shiny versions? #6
