flextable

flextable copied to clipboard

When I create cross-references to flextables, either with a target id specified through #| tab.id: <id> or {r, tab.id=<ic>} chunk options, and use in a cross-reference as \@ref(tab:<id>), the knitted HTML creates a proper link with the correct html target/anchor id and the matching id on the table object:

<p>And link to <a href="#tab:table2">1.1</a></p>

<caption style="display:table-caption;"><span id="tab:table2">Table 1.1: </span><span>Second Table</span></caption>

but clicking on the first one doesn't jump/scroll to the second one.

Could this be due to the flextable being inside a #shadow-root?

REPRODUCIBLE EXAMPLE .Rmd

--- output: bookdown::html_document2 ---

```{r} #| tab.id: table1 #| tab.cap: "First Table" cars |> flextable::qflextable() ```

```{r, tab.cap='Second Table', tab.id='table2'} cars |> flextable::qflextable() ```

Link to @ref(tab:table1)

And link to @ref(tab:table2)
