Create a tabset that contains tabPanel() elements. Tabsets are useful for dividing output into multiple independently viewable sections.

tabsetPanel(
  ...,
  id = NULL,
  selected = NULL,
  type = c("tabs", "pills", "hidden"),
  header = NULL,
  footer = NULL
)

Arguments

...

tabPanel() elements to include in the tabset

id

If provided, you can use input$id in your server logic to determine which of the current tabs is active. The value will correspond to the value argument that is passed to tabPanel().

selected

The value (or, if none was supplied, the title) of the tab that should be selected by default. If NULL, the first tab will be selected.

type
"tabs"

Standard tab look

"pills"

Selected tabs use the background fill color

"hidden"

Hides the selectable tabs. Use type = "hidden" in conjunction with tabPanelBody() and updateTabsetPanel() to control the active tab via other input controls. (See example below)

header

Tag or list of tags to display as a common header above all tabPanels.

Tag or list of tags to display as a common footer below all tabPanels

Value

A tabset that can be passed to mainPanel()

Examples

# Show a tabset that includes a plot, summary, and
# table view of the generated distribution
mainPanel(
  tabsetPanel(
    tabPanel("Plot", plotOutput("plot")),
    tabPanel("Summary", verbatimTextOutput("summary")),
    tabPanel("Table", tableOutput("table"))
  )
)
