cells_stub: Location helper for targeting cells in the table stub
In gt: Easily Create Presentation-Ready Display Tables

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Figures Function ID See Also Examples

The cells_stub() function is used to target the table's stub cells and it is useful when applying a footnote with tab_footnote() or adding a custom style with tab_style(). The function is expressly used in each of those functions' locations argument.

1	cells_stub(rows = TRUE)

rows

The names of the rows that are to be targeted.

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 with the classes cells_stub and location_cells.
