gtext: specify number of lines

I'm using gWidgets GUI fronted package in R. I can specify height of gtext() in pixel, but... how can I specify the height of gtext in number of lines of text (like in textarea in html ...)?

In particular, I need only one line text input field. Like <input type="text"> in html, but gtext() works more like <textarea>.

Solution

  • Based on @jverzani's comment - the solution is to use gedit for single line entry, like:

    xyear <- gedit("1980", height = 1, horizontal = F)
