changes in column names through Rjeditor not considered within jamovi

[superyms]

When I try to change the space " " in the colnames in Rjeditor it seems to work there using :
colnames(data) <- gsub(" ", "_", colnames(data))

However it is not considered in jamovi, the names used still have a space and not a "_".
I tried to export it, however, it is not included too.

It would be nice to see the changes when we work on column names (or names) within the Rjeditor directly in jamovi.

Is there another solution? (to obtain that change in the column names within jamovi?)

Thanks.

hi,

Rj Editor cannot rename columns, however if you use the Rj Editor+, you can create new columns with new names.

another solution might be to changes the names in data, and then write that to a .csv file. then open that .csv file in jamovi.

Hey @superyms,
as Jth wrote, with Rj editor +, you can do cool stuff and make it available in the sheet for other analysis in jamovi, like the small example in the screenshot:

If you want to move around the jamovi file, you might also be interested in taking a look here:
https://github.com/sjentsch/jmvReadWrite

Where do you find the jmvReadWrite R package written by Sebastian Jentschke of Team jamovi.
Personally I find it very interesting and useful.

Thank you both for your answer.
I will give it a try!

MAgojam, your explanation is clear, I also thank yo for sharing about the jmvReadWrite R package.

Best,

MAgojam,

I tried to use Rjeditor+, however, it is still not working! (I still have the same result, only working within the Rjeditor+ and not changed in jamovi).
I do not understand how you proceed to obtain such a result.

Please let me know step by step.

Hey @superyms,
might you be interested in taking a look at the attached .omv file?
