I would like to customize a shiny application using tabsetPanels
so that the selected panel appears in a black background with white text, and the unselected ta
EDIT: for shiny versions >= 0.14 see here.
If you select the link with an 'active' class as an immediate descendant of the nav I think you can get what you're after. The UI would look like
ui <- shinyUI(
fluidPage(
tags$style(HTML("
.tabs-above > .nav > li[class=active] > a {
background-color: #000;
color: #FFF;
}")),
tabsetPanel(
tabPanel(
title = "Hello",
textInput(inputId = "text", label = "Input")
),
tabPanel(
title = "World"
)
)
)
)
The above example is broken apparently (from version 0.14.0), probably due to a Shiny css change. Additionally the title of the post promises more than the actual question and solution actually covered. So I wrote a new more comprehensive example.
Whether or not all these colors are a good idea from a UI point of view is another question...
Here is the code:
library(shiny)
ui <-shinyUI(fluidPage(
h1("Colored Tabs"),
tags$style(HTML("
.tabbable > .nav > li > a {background-color: aqua; color:black}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t1'] {background-color: red; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t2'] {background-color: blue; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t3'] {background-color: green; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li[class=active] > a {background-color: black; color:white}
")),
tabsetPanel(
tabPanel("t0",h2("normal tab")),
tabPanel("t1",h2("red tab")),
tabPanel("t2",h2("blue tab")),
tabPanel("t3",h2("green tab")),
tabPanel("t4",h2("normal tab")),
tabPanel("t5",h2("normal tab"))
)
))
server <- function(input, output) {}
shinyApp(ui=ui,server=server)
Here is a screen shot:
And in case this breaks again, and the code has to be adjusted, here is the current css/html that is producing this:
<body>
<div class="container-fluid">
<h1>Colored Tabs</h1>
<style>
.tabbable > .nav > li > a {background-color: aqua; color:black}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t1'] {background-color: red; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t2'] {background-color: blue; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li > a[data-value='t3'] {background-color: green; color:white}
.tabbable > .nav > li[class=active] > a {background-color: black; color:white}
</style>
