Currently, the data editor handles numeric, factor, and cahracter classes. Often, datasets include date-time variables - which when read from csv files are treated as factors or characters \(nothing to do here\!\), but after being converted to any DateTimeClass \(as.POSIXct/as.POSIXlt\) it is displayed as numbers \(since epoch - that is how it is internally stored I guess\). Note that on "View"-ing the data, which amounts to print\(data\), the date variable is properly handled by print. Is there anyway to do it in the editor-display itself, instead of converting back to character?-- Labels: Editor / table --
