| People may find some features in `kableExtra`, such as hovering/striped rows are not working in `radix`. The reason is that `kableExtra` relies on `bootstrap` stylesheet to do these jobs while `radix` doesn't have those css load. Therefore you need to tell `kableExtra` to load the table css for you by setting `options(kableExtra.html.bsTable = T)`. |
| |
| ```{r, echo = T} |
| library(kableExtra) |
| options(kableExtra.html.bsTable = T) |
| |
| kable(iris[1:6, ], caption = "kable with kableExtra") %>% |
| kable_styling(c("striped", "hover", "condensed"), full_width = F, |
| position = "left") %>% |
| add_header_above(c("numerical" = 4, "categorical" = 1)) %>% |
| column_spec(1, bold = T) %>% |
| row_spec(0, italic = T) |
| ``` |
| |
| |
| Comparing with other table options |
| |
| ```{r, echo = T} |
| kable(iris[1:6, ], caption = "Basic kable") |
| ``` |
| |
| ```{r, echo = T} |
| rmarkdown::paged_table(iris) |
| ``` |
| |
| # Appendix |
| Here is a screenshot of how table looks like if you don't turn on the `kableExtra.html.bsTable` option (with the same code). In fact, the only part that breaks is the `striped` and `hover` option. :P |
