Location helper for targeting the table title and subtitle
The cells_title() function is used to target the table title or subtitle
when applying a footnote with tab_footnote() or adding custom style with
tab_style(). The function is expressly used in each of those functions'
locations argument.
cells_title(groups = c("title", "subtitle"))groups |
We can either specify |
When using any of the location helper functions with an appropriate function
that has a locations argument, multiple locations can be targeted by
enclosing several cells_*() helper functions in a list(). The following
helper functions can be used to target cells (roughly in order from the top
to the bottom of a table):
cells_title(): targets the table title or the table subtitle
depending on the value given to the groups argument ("title" or
"subtitle").
cells_stubhead(): targets the stubhead location, a cell of which is
only available when there is a stub; a label in that location can be created
by using the tab_stubhead() function.
cells_column_spanners(): targets the spanner column labels, which
appear above the column labels.
cells_column_labels(): targets the column labels.
cells_row_groups(): targets the row group labels in any available row
groups using the groups argument.
cells_stub(): targets row labels in the table stub using the rows
argument.
cells_body(): targets data cells in the table body using
intersections of columns and rows.
cells_summary(): targets summary cells in the table body using the
groups argument and intersections of columns and rows.
cells_grand_summary(): targets cells of the table's grand summary
using intersections of columns and rows
A list object of classes cells_title and location_cells.
