An R markdown presentation does not work whenggplotly in for-loop

[egpivo]

Hi there,

The problem is that I want to use a for loop to plot a bunch of interactive ggplotly graphs, which are put into corresponding slides one by one. I've check the issues #273, #425 and #570, but I still can't solve it.

The fail part of script in my.Rmd file is:

---
title: "Automated slides"
output: ioslides_presentation
---

```{r, echo = F, message = FALSE,  results='asis'}
### failed
library(plotly)
plt <- htmltools::tagList()
for(j in 1:2) {
  cat(paste("\n\n## Feature: ",j),"\n\n" ) 
  df <- data.frame(x =  1:10, y = (1:10)^2)
  p <- ggplot(df, aes(x = x, y = y)) + geom_line()
  plt[[j]] <-  ggplotly(p)
}

plt

This is the expected one without a for loop:

### expected
plt <- htmltools::tagList()
for(j in 1:2) {
  p <- ggplot(df, aes(x = x, y = y)) + geom_line()
  plt[[j]] <-  ggplotly(p)
}
cat(paste("\n\n## Feature: ",1),"\n\n" ) 
plt[[1]]
cat(paste("\n\n## Feature: ",2),"\n\n" ) 
plt[[2]]

Any ideas to solve the failed part? Thanks.

Remove the results='asis' bit?

It doesn't work. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

This is what I get. Perhaps your plots are running off the slide?

I think you are perhaps misunderstood my example. I tried to generate every single plot into a singe slide, not all plots in a one slide. In this sense, is there any possible way to solve it? Thanks!
