How do I turn off Expandable for a tabset in dashboard?

[G1ngie]

Description

What is the syntax for turning off the expandable button in the .tabset? I am sure you can do it, but I can't figure out where to put "expandable: false". When I try to do ### BottomRow1 {.tabset expandable: false}, it breaks the tabset.

Want to have it so only the expandable button shows up for what is in the card-

---
title: "Untitled"
format: dashboard
---

## Quarto {.tabset}
### Tab1

```{r}
plot(mtcars)
```

### tab2

```{r}
plot(mtcars)
```

Thanks so much for the help!

Could you share a small self-contained "working" (reproducible) example to work with, i.e., a complete Quarto document or a Git repository? The goal is to make it as easy as possible for us to recreate your problem so that we can fix it: please help us help you! Thanks.

Note that screenshots are not code and cannot replace actual code.
Screenshots are also not advised especially without alternative text.
Please follow the guidelines as described when you've opened this discussion where all this is explained: https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/discussions/new?category=q-a

The expandable: false is YAML syntax so it has to where YAML is supported and as documented: https://quarto.org/docs/dashboards/layout.html#expanding-cards

Divs and spans use equal sign not colon as documented: https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/markdown-basics.html#sec-divs-and-spans

You can share a self-contained "working" (reproducible) Quarto document using the following syntax, i.e., using more backticks than you have in your document (usually four ````).
See https://quarto.org/bug-reports.html#small-is-beautiful-aim-for-a-single-document-with-10-lines.

If you have multiple files (and if it is absolutely required to have multiple files), please share as a Git repository.

R	Python
````qmd --- title: "Reproducible Quarto Document" format: html engine: knitr --- This is a reproducible Quarto document. {{< lipsum 1 >}} ```{r} x <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) y <- c(1, 4, 9, 16, 25) plot(x, y) ``` {#fig-placeholder} {{< lipsum 1 >}} The end after @fig-placeholder. ````	````qmd --- title: "Reproducible Quarto Document" format: html engine: jupyter --- This is a reproducible Quarto document. {{< lipsum 1 >}} ```{python} import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] y = [1, 4, 9, 16, 25] plt.plot(x, y) plt.show() ``` {#fig-placeholder} {{< lipsum 1 >}} The end after @fig-placeholder. ````

Additionally and if not already given, please share the output of quarto check within a code block (i.e., using three backticks ```txt), see https://quarto.org/bug-reports.html#check.

I am trying, but this is way over my head.

So, you wrote-
"In your example, add the expandable option in your code cells."

I did this, below-

---
title: "Untitled"
format: dashboard
---

## Quarto {.tabset}
### Tab1

```{r}
#| expandable: false
plot(mtcars)
```

### Tab2

```{r}
#| expandable: false
plot(mtcars)
```

And that removes the inner expand option, which is the one I wanted to keep:

Now, when I expand it, the tabs stay:

How do I remove the expandable option for the card that encompasses the tabs?

Someone was able to help me on StackOverflow. Their solution used a CSS chunk:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79602972/quarto-dashboard-remove-expandable-option-from-tabset-card/79603008#79603008

Appreciate you trying to help me here, though!

Have a good one!

Thanks for the additional context.
Unfortunately, currently, the only way is to disable the option globally then to reactivate it.

title: "Untitled"
format: dashboard
expandable: false

## Quarto {.tabset}

### Tab1

```{r}
#| expandable: true
plot(mtcars)
```

### Tab2

```{r}
#| expandable: true
plot(mtcars)
```

I've opened an issue about this. Thanks for bringing this to us.

@G1ngie Be aware that the practice to cross-post on multiple platforms like this is considered by many as disrespectful of the time spent to help. It also scatter the information across multiple platforms.
I recommend you refrain yourself from doing that in the future which is inconsiderate of the time being spent by users on those platforms.

[G1ngie]

That's extremely fair. In my defense, I didn't do that from the start; it wasn't until I realized I was struggling to get my question across, and I thought I wasn't technical enough for this forum, after you replied several times, saying to read the documentation. So I reached out on a different platform, hoping someone could explain it to me with a different approach. I am sorry I went that path, I will refrain from doing that in the future.

I thought I wasn't technical enough for this forum, after you replied several times, saying to read the documentation.

Bad phrasing from me, sorry about that.
It was not very clear you wanted a specific level of "expand" to be removed.
That's also why (even on StackOverflow) it's important to share the actual code that was used or the different trials.

Guidelines are provided to avoid such cases:

• for example StackOverflow:
  • https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask
  • https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example

Quarto has the guidelines as well and are given every time you open a new issue or discussion.

It's not about being technical or not by the way.
