title: R: [Indicspecies package] multipatt function: extract values from summary.multipatt
body: <p>I am working with the 'indicspecies' package - multipatt function and am unable to extract summary values of the package. Unfortunately I can't print all the summary and am left with impartial information for my model. The reason is the huge amount of data that needs to be printed from the summary (300.000 different species, 3 groups, 6 comparable combinations). </p>
  
  <p>This is what happens with summary being saved (pre-code incl.): </p>
  
  <pre><code>x &lt;- multipatt(data, ...) 
  
  sumx &lt;-summary(x)
  
  sumx 
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>NULL</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <pre><code>str(sumx) 
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>NULL </p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So, the summary does not work exactly like a generic summary. It seems that the function is based around the older indval function from the 'labdsv' package (which is mentioned in the documentation). I found an archived thread where a similar problem is discussed: <a href="http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/extract-values-from-summary-of-function-indval-of-the-package-labdsv-td4637466.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/extract-values-from-summary-of-function-indval-of-the-package-labdsv-td4637466.html</a> </p>
  
  <p>but it seems not resolved (and is not exactly about the same function, rather the base function indval). </p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if anyone has experience with the indicspecies package and knows a way to either extract the info from the summary. </p>
  
  <p>It is possible to extract significance and other information from the other saved data from the model, but it might be nice to just get a quick complete overview from the data. </p>
  
  <p>ps. I tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>options(max.print=1000000)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this didn't solve it for me. </p>
