You need to have a Workbook object to attach a CellStyle object to it.

Since OS X 10.5 Apple dropped support for AWT on the main thread, so essentially you cannot use any graphics classes in R on OS X 10.5 since R is single-threaded. (verbatim from Simon Urbanek). This implies that setting colors on Mac will not work as is! A set of about 50 basic colors are still available please see the javadocs.

For Excel 95/2000/XP/2003 the choice of colors is limited. See INDEXED_COLORS_ for the list of available colors.

Unspecified values for arguments are taken from the system locale.

Examples

Run this code

# NOT RUN {
  wb <- createWorkbook()
  sheet <- createSheet(wb, "Sheet1")

  rows  <- createRow(sheet, rowIndex=1)    

  cell.1 <- createCell(rows, colIndex=1)[[1,1]]     
  setCellValue(cell.1, "Hello R!")

  cs <- CellStyle(wb) +
    Font(wb, heightInPoints=20, isBold=TRUE, isItalic=TRUE,
      name="Courier New", color="orange") + 
    Fill(backgroundColor="lavender", foregroundColor="lavender",
      pattern="SOLID_FOREGROUND") +
    Alignment(h="ALIGN_RIGHT")
   
  setCellStyle(cell.1, cellStyle1)  

  # you need to save the workbook now if you want to see this art
# }
