Unless there are significant differences between HTML/LaTeX, I will only keep one copy of documentation in HTML here since most of the functions in this packages share a very similar interface between their HTML and LaTeX ends. ```{r, warning=FALSE} library(kableExtra) dt <- mtcars[1:5, 1:6] ``` # Unrecommended Features ## add_footnote As the first function written in this package, the design of the `add_footnote` function is not flexible enough to introduce new features to this function. So I redesigned the footnote part and created the `footnote()` function. `add_footnote` will still be there for a while and be maintained because of its unique feature to add page footnote to longtables. Here are the old documentation for `add_footnote`. ### Notation systems You can also use `add_footnote()` function from this package. You will need to supply a character vector with each element as one footnote. You may select from `number`, `alphabet` and `symbol` for different types of notations. Example are listed below. #### Alphabet ```{r} kable(dt, "html") %>% kable_styling("striped") %>% add_footnote(c("Footnote 1", "Have a good day."), notation = "alphabet") ``` #### Number ```{r} kable(dt, "html") %>% kable_styling("striped") %>% add_footnote(c("Footnote 1", "Have a good day."), notation = "number") ``` #### Symbol ```{r} kable(dt, "html") %>% kable_styling("striped") %>% add_footnote(c("Footnote 1", "Footnote 2", "Footnote 3"), notation = "symbol") ``` ### In-table markers By design, `add_footnote()` will transform any `[note]` to in-table footnote markers. ```{r} kable(dt, "html", caption = "Demo Table[note]") %>% kable_styling("striped") %>% add_header_above(c(" ", "Group 1[note]" = 3, "Group 2[note]" = 3)) %>% add_footnote(c("This table is from mtcars", "Group 1 contains mpg, cyl and disp", "Group 2 contains hp, drat and wt"), notation = "symbol") ```
