I'm writing R scripts in RStudio and I use the code folding a lot. I found that you can see the hierarchy of the folding by pressing cmd + shift + O. This is super helpful.
# to my dear love ---------------------------------------------------------
2+2
# yo man ====
x.2 = function (x) {x+2}
### I do love potatoes ####
See the result by pressing cmd + shift + O.
I don't understand how this is working because when I write the code below, I can create a subsection without text but not when there is text in it (using # ====
but not # yo man ====
).
# to my dear love ---------------------------------------------------------
2+2
# ====
# yo man ====
### I do love potatoes ####
x.2 = function (x) {x+2}
data = "here is some data"
See the result by pressing cmd + shift + O.
You can see that under # to my dear love ---------------------------------------------------------
everything under is shifted to the right! This is cool!
As per Chris's answer subheaders within functions
RStudio Code Folding hierarchy only works within function definitions and if-else structures. For example:
# Section 1 ----
a <- 1
testfunct1 <- function () {
# sect in function=====
b <- 2
c <- 3
}
# Section 2 #####
d <- 4
# Section 3 =======
e <- 5
testfunct2 <- function () {
# sect in function 2 =====
f <- 6
testsubfunct2_1 <- function () {
# sect in subfunction 2_1 -----
if (a == 1) {
# section in if ----
g < 7
} else {
# section in else ----
h = 8
}
}
}
# Section 4 ####
j <- 9
Produces this outline:
I don't know why the if-else section labels do not line up.
