How to stop xaringan's keyboard shortcuts while searching in a DT::datatable()?

Question

xaringan's keyboard shortcuts interfere with DT::datatable() search functionality. It can even be seen in xaringan's example presentation (for instance, attempt to search for "m").

How can I stop this from happening? It is practically impossible to search for anything in a DT::datatable().

Answer 1

You can disable the keyboard shortcut by using frameWidget in widgetframe R package. Below is a working example.

```{r}
library(widgetframe)
library(DT)
dt <-  datatable(iris)
frameWidget(dt)
```
