block_text: A block of text

A block of text

Description

With block_text() we can define a text area and this can be easily combined with other ⁠block_*()⁠ functions. The text will take the entire width of the block and will resize according to screen width. Like all ⁠block_*()⁠ functions, block_text() must be placed inside of blocks() and the resultant blocks object can be provided to the body, header, or footer arguments of compose_email().

Usage

block_text(text, align = c("left", "center", "right", "justify"))

Arguments

text	Plain text or Markdown text (via md()).
align	The text alignment to be used for this block of text. The default is "left".

Examples

# Create a block of two, side-by-side
# articles with two `article()` calls
# inside of `block_articles()`, itself
# placed in `blocks()`; also, include some
# text at the top with `block_text()`

          I liked them a lot, so, I'll visit them again!"),

              "I want to live in Los Angeles.
              Not the one in Los Angeles.
              No, not the one in South California.
              They got one in South Patagonia."

              I'm leaving today.
              I want to be a part of it.
              New York, New York."
