breakable: Allow a table to break across pages

In huxtable: Easily Create and Style Tables for LaTeX, HTML and Other Formats

Allow a table to break across pages

Description

breakable() controls whether a table may break between rows across pages. Individual rows are kept together. It affects paged HTML, LaTeX, RTF, Typst, and Word output; other output formats ignore it.

Usage

breakable(ht)

breakable(ht) <- value

set_breakable(ht, value)

Arguments

ht	A huxtable.
value	Logical. Set to NA to reset to the default, which is FALSE.

Details

In LaTeX, breakable tables use the longtable environment and therefore require a one-column layout. They cannot have a fixed height() or use a wrapping position().

Value

property() returns the property value(s). set_property() and map_property() return the modified huxtable.

Examples

set_breakable(jams, TRUE)
