Plots tab: auto-detected visualisations for
every column — histograms (with rug) for continuous numerics, bar charts
for categorical and low-cardinality variables, and boxplots on demand.
Configurable bin count and a printed summary() panel
accompany each plot.
Drag-and-drop column reordering: columns in the Data View table can be rearranged by dragging their headers (powered by the DataTables ‘ColReorder’ extension).
Copy Code button in the top bar: one-click clipboard copy of the generated ‘dplyr’ pipeline, placed alongside Done / Cancel for quick access.
Download CSV button in the top bar: exports the currently displayed (filtered, sorted, and column-selected) data as a timestamped CSV file.
Automatic Find & Replace preview: the preview table now updates automatically as you type — the separate Preview button has been removed.
Dynamic rows-per-page slider: the maximum value now matches the actual number of rows in the data rather than a fixed cap of 500.
Column search in the sidebar: a search box above the column checkbox list lets you quickly locate columns in wide data frames.
Smart filter value input: the value field is hidden automatically when the selected operator is is NA or is not NA, reducing visual clutter.
Improved filter row layout: each filter condition now uses a compact two-row layout (column + logic connector on top; operator + value below) that fits comfortably in the narrow sidebar.
install_viewr_deps() (dependencies are declared
in DESCRIPTION and installed automatically by R).Language: en-GB declared in DESCRIPTION;
inst/WORDLIST added for technical terms..Rbuildignore updated to exclude .claude/
from the source tarball.Excel-like editor (edit = TRUE):
powered by rhandsontable, supports inline cell editing, row
addition via right-click context menu or the Add Row button,
and unlimited undo / redo.
Find & Replace tab: search for a literal string, regex pattern, or exact cell value across one or all columns. A live Preview diff table shows matched cells before changes are committed.
Variable Info tab: one-row-per-column summary of data type, N, missing count, missing %, unique count, min, max, and sample values.
R Code tab (generate_code = TRUE):
live dplyr pipeline that reflects all current filters,
sorts, column selections, and find-and-replace operations. Copy to
clipboard button included.
Multi-condition Filters with AND / OR logic and
eleven operators: ==, !=, >,
>=, <, <=,
contains, starts with, ends with, is
NA, is not NA.
Multi-column Sort: add as many ordered sort levels as needed, each independently ascending or descending.
Column visibility panel: show / hide any column; bulk All / None toggles.
Variable labels: automatically read from column
"label" attributes (e.g. from
haven::read_spss()); displayed as hoverable tooltips on
column headers in the Data View table.
Twelve Bootstrap themes via
shinythemes: "flatly",
"cerulean", "cosmo", "darkly",
"lumen", "paper", "readable",
"sandstone", "simplex",
"spacelab", "united",
"yeti".
install_viewr_deps(): helper to detect and install
all required packages in one call.
Pipe-friendly: ViewR() accepts piped input and
returns the working data frame invisibly when the user clicks
Done.
