Helper to target cells at locations

Description

This listing with locations corresponding roughly from top to 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 tab_stubhead().

• cells_column_spanners()*: targets the spanner column labels with the spanners argument; spanner column labels appear above the column labels.

• cells_column_labels()*: targets the column labels with its columns argument.

• 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

• cells_stub_summary(): targets summary row labels in the table stub using the groups and rows arguments.

• cells_stub_grand_summary(): targets grand summary row labels in the table stub using the rows argument.

• cells_footnotes(): targets all footnotes in the table footer (cannot be used with tab_footnote()).

• cells_source_notes(): targets all source notes in the table footer (cannot be used with tab_footnote()).

* are the only functions usable by the ⁠text_*()⁠ functions.

Note

When using any of the location helper functions with an appropriate function that has a locations argument (e.g., tab_style()), multiple locations can be targeted by enclosing several ⁠cells_*()⁠ helper functions in a list() (e.g., list(cells_body(), cells_grand_summary())).

See Also

Functions with locations argument:

• tab_footnote()

• tab_style()

• text_transform()

• text_replace()

• text_case_when()

• text_case_match()

These functions contain more example of usage.

Other location helper functions: cells_body(), cells_column_labels(), cells_column_spanners(), cells_footnotes(), cells_grand_summary(), cells_row_groups(), cells_source_notes(), cells_stub(), cells_stub_grand_summary(), cells_stub_summary(), cells_stubhead(), cells_summary(), cells_title()
