In flextable: Functions for Tabular Reporting

flextable 0.9.7

Added support for labelled datasets.

The fix_border_issues function is now useless for users, as it is now called automatically before printing.

fix caption issue that came with no version of bookdown (issue #645), 'bookdown' management of caption has been simplified.
fix vertical overlapping lines with grid output (issue #644)
fix broken internal links in PDF file, probably due to a change in knitr or rmarkdown (issue #632)

bring back support for 'pagedown' with pagedown >= 0.20.2
flextable now applies defined text-format to empty cells for Word and Powerpoint outputs.

flextable 0.9.6

headers_flextable_at_bkm() and footers_flextable_at_bkm() are defunct.
flextable_to_rmd() is now using knit_child() for safer usage from for loops or if statements.
Add explanation about caption limitations in the manual of functions save_as_image() and ph_with.flextable().
Deprecate as_raster() since gen_grob() is easier to use and render nicer.
BREAKING CHANGE: in align(), the default argument value for align is now "left", rather than c("left", "center", "right", "justify"). This returns the default value to how it was in older versions of {flextable}.
- in align(), use of the old default align argument could cause an error if the number of columns being adjusted was not a multiple of 4.
- The documentation specified that align had to be a single value, when it could actually accept multiple values. This is why a default value of c("left", "center", "right", "justify"), was problematic. This documentation has now been updated and new examples included in the documentation.
- The default align argument will now apply left alignment to all columns in the body.
- If the user specifies an alignment that is invalid, a error will be displayed.
- The path argument now has a signature of part = c("body", "header", "footer", "all"), but because only a single value can be selected, it will pick "body" by default, as before.
Deprecate lollipop() since it produces (ugly) results that can be replaced by nice results with gg_chunk() or grid_chunk().

fix issue with as_image() when the table contains no text.
fix font instruction issue with PDF and quarto
fix issue with Quarto detection and R > 4.4
fix align() issue with recycling and update documentation that was wrong about argument align that is vectorized over columns.

flextable 0.9.5

new functions tab_settings() to set tabulation marks configuration for Word and RTF. It works with officer::fp_tabs().
new function fmt_signif_after_zero() to round significant figures after zeros.

summarizor() don't stop anymore if table only contain discrete columns.
as_flextable.data.frame() supports 'data.table'
footnote() handle undefined ref_symbols argument
delete_rows() does not delete rows if the row selection is empty
improve gen_grob() alignments when wrapping text
fix horizontal border issue with gen_grob() when cells are vertically merged
Word captions set with set_caption() can have no bookmark and have autonumber used together.

Deprecate set_formatter_type().
renovate fmt_2stats() so that it uses global flextable settings, i.e. digits, etc.

move image shown in add_footer to footnote where it should be.
update the documentation and automatically change alignment 'justify' to 'left' for latex output.
borders'width for grid output are fixed

new functions delete_columns() and delete_rows() to let users delete rows or columns.
save_as_image() now supports svg export with 'svglite'.

flextable 0.9.3

The summarizor() function has been enhanced to offer three new options:
an empty by argument meaning 'no grouping,'
the ability for users to select numeric statistics to display ("mean_sd," "median_iqr," "range"),
and the option to specify whether or not to show all NA counts.

as_flextable.data.frame() always shows the number of rows even if less than 10 (because I need it!).

Make sure 'gfm' format is rendered as an image.
As adviced by Ben Bolker, functions as_flextable.lm(), as_flextable.gam(), as_flextable.glm(), as_flextable.merMod() and as_flextable.htest() now respect the global value of getOption("show.signif.stars").
new argument add.random in as_flextable.merMod() to let add or not random effects in the final table.
drop superfluous semicolons when include.row_percent = FALSE
Super and subscripts are now correctly rendered in PDF (thanks to Philippe Grosjean).
argument max_iter of function fit_to_width is not ignored anymore.

rename technical column part to .part so that column named part can be used.

flextable 0.9.2

rmarkdown expect list of dependencies to be unnamed. This property is used in HTML or LaTeX deps resolution to know when to be recursive
dim_pretty() returns correct numbers when not 'inches'
as_flextable.table() now propagates ... as expected
pdf: when table was on two pages, there were duplicated caption entries, this is fixed thanks to Christophe Dervieux and Nick Bart. Repeating the caption along pages can be desactivated with command set_table_properties(opts_pdf = list(caption_repeat = FALSE)).
as_flextable() now works on tabular objects and R < 4.1.
to_html(type = "img") now use the correct width and height

bookdown has now bookmarks associated with captions and flextable benefits from this feature.
In 'Quarto' captions are ignored, which make Quarto captions valid with HTML and PDF outputs; the responsibility for managing captions lies with the Quarto framework itself. It does not work with Quarto for Word and should be possible with Quarto 1.4.
as_flextable.tabular() now generate tabulated content only if the sub group contains more than a single row. When possible, row titles are tabulated.

The functions footers_flextable_at_bkm and headers_flextable_at_bkm are deprecated. Instead, we recommend using the prop_section() and block_list() functions from the officer package as alternative solutions. These functions provide more reliable and flexible options for managing footers and headers.

flextable 0.9.1

parameter keepnext and ft.keepnext are defunct, they are replaced by function paginate() that enable nice pagination of tables across pages or keep_with_next() to get total control over rows pagination.

fix save_as_html() ugly default title.
fix alignment issues when rows are horizontally merged in PDF

drop 'base64enc' dependency and use 'officer' functions as replacement.
Use officer_url_encode() to encode URL in office files.

It is supposed to replace "knitr" chunk options ft.align, ft.split, ft.keepnext, ft.tabcolsep, ft.arraystretch, ft.latex.float, ft.shadow, fonts_ignore although they are all still supported. This allows less interaction with the 'R Markdown' or 'Quarto' eco-system and let to define it globally with set_flextable_defaults().
