ensure node labels are not obstructed by other nodes
I have a dense network, and when my mouse hovers over nodes, the label is sometimes obstructed by other nodes. I would love it if the text was 'on top of' all nodes.
I tried my hand at this myself in the code below. The weird thing is that the stand-alone version of the code works fine when opened as an html file. But when I give it to shiny using cat() and htmlOutput(), the next labels appear at the bottom of the screen.
Hi Christopher,
The code is located at:
https://gist.github.com/maxcw/7fb0b8dbaa10efb79d41
I've never used a gist before, so let me know if that doesn't work. Just to reiterate, this is a sample of what I plug into shiny:
In server.R I have:
output$networkPlot <- {
conn=file('d3network_mod.html',open='r')
cat(readLines(conn),sep='\n')
close(conn)
}
and in the ui.R I have:
htmlOutput('networkPlot')
The free-standing version of the html file looks fine in when opened directly by browsers. But when d3network_mod.html is plugged into Shiny, the node labels show up at the bottom left corner!
Thank You For Your Help,
Max

Can you send the code as a gisthttps://gist.github.com/. It hasn't been rendered very well in the issue.

The gist looks good. Thanks!
I'll try to carve out a bit of time to look at this within the week.
