R markdown output size

Question

I want to generate a R markdown page with an interactive shiny app. It works fine but the output is in a really small area with scrollbars. I want to get rid of the scrollbars and show the 2 figures with full width and height without scrollbars. How can I achieve that?

I have already tried:

options(width = 800)

Currently it looks like this:

    ---
title: "Spielercluster"
output: html_document
runtime: shiny
---
```{r,echo=FALSE}
library(ggplot2)
library(shiny)

data<-read.csv2('data.csv',header=T,sep=",") 
rawData<-read.csv2('rawData.csv',header=T,sep=",")
cluster<-read.csv2('cluster.csv',header=T,sep=",")
colors<-c("green","red","black")

ui<-fluidPage(plotOutput("plot1", hover = "plot_hover"),
              plotOutput("plot2", hover = "plot_hover"),
              verbatimTextOutput("info")
)

server <- function(input, output) {

  output$plot1 <- renderPlot({
ggplot(rawData, aes(koerpergewicht, groesse, color =  factor(data$gruppe))) +
          geom_point() + labs(title = paste(nlevels(factor(colors))))+geom_point(size=8)+geom_text(aes(label=position),vjust=-1.5)+scale_color_manual(name = "Gruppe",
  labels = c("1 schwer", "2 leicht","3 Zwischengruppe"),
  values = c(rgb(0.9725490196078431,0.4627450980392157,0.4274509803921569,1),rgb(0,0.7294117647058824,0.2196078431372549,1),rgb(0.3803921568627451,0.6117647058823529,1,1)))+ggtitle("Original")
  })

  output$plot2 <- renderPlot({
ggplot(rawData, aes(koerpergewicht, groesse, color =  factor(cluster$x))) +
          geom_point() + labs(title = paste(nlevels(factor(colors))))+geom_point(size=8)+geom_text(aes(label=position),vjust=-1.5)+scale_color_manual(name = "Gruppe",
  labels = c("1 schwer", "2 leicht","3 Zwischengruppe"),
  values = c(rgb(0.9725490196078431,0.4627450980392157,0.4274509803921569,1),rgb(0,0.7294117647058824,0.2196078431372549,1),rgb(0.3803921568627451,0.6117647058823529,1,1)))+ggtitle("Berechnet")
  })


  output$info <- renderPrint({
    nearPoints(rawData, input$plot_hover, , threshold = 10, maxpoints = 1,
               addDist = TRUE)
  })
}

shinyApp(ui, server)
```

Answer 1

I achieved it by adding my own css file. You can include it like this:

---
title: "Spielercluster"
output:
  html_document:
    css: style.css
runtime: shiny
---

Then you have to adjust the sizes of the class shiny-frame

.shiny-frame{
  width: 1400px;
  height: 1200px;
}

Answer 2

shinyApp(ui, server, options = list(height = 1000)

Note the use of the height parameter to determine how much vertical space the embedded application should occupy. (http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/authoring_embedded_shiny.html)
