Compatibility of WinBox with Dark Theme in bs4Dash

[noamanemobidata]

Hi!

I'm using bs4Dash with the dark theme. Is there any way to make WinBox reactive to the theme?

Thanks!

Hello,
To achieve this you'll have to add some CSS to your application :

.wb-body { background: #f4f6f9; }
.dark-mode .wb-body { background: #454d55; }

Here's a full example:

library(shiny)
library(shinyWidgets)
library(bs4Dash)

ui <- dashboardPage(
  dashboardHeader(title = "Basic dashboard"),
  dashboardSidebar(),
  dashboardBody(
    
    ##### Winbox part ##### 
    html_dependency_winbox(),
    tags$style(
      ".wb-body { background: #f4f6f9; }",
      ".dark-mode .wb-body { background: #454d55; }"
    ),
    actionButton(inputId = "show", label = "Show WinBox"),
    ##### ##### ##### ##### 
    
    # Boxes need to be put in a row (or column)
    fluidRow(
      box(plotOutput("plot1", height = 250)),
      
      box(
        title = "Controls",
        sliderInput("slider", "Number of observations:", 1, 100, 50)
      )
    )
  )
)

server <- function(input, output) {
  set.seed(122)
  histdata <- rnorm(500)
  
  output$plot1 <- renderPlot({
    data <- histdata[seq_len(input$slider)]
    hist(data)
  })
  
  ##### Winbox part ##### 
  observeEvent(input$show, {
    WinBox(
      title = "WinBox window",
      ui = tagList(
        tags$h2("Hello from WinBox!"),
        "Text content of winbox.",
        selectInput("month", "Select a month:", month.name)
      )
    )
  })
  ##### ##### ##### ##### 
}

shinyApp(ui, server)
