Can't position multiple tables side by side on an Rmarkdown pdf

Open iwissemben opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug Is there a way to position multiple dataframes side by side on an Rmarkdown pdf? i tried to print them as one kable and it successfuly centered the "global kable" on the page, but how can i change the space between the two dataframes? I tried to print them as one kables() of two kables() but i cant even center them, let alone change the space between the two kable() . And ultimately how can i position a kable on the right or on the left side of a page even without having paragraphs to wrap it around. Here's a screenshot of the results and the code i wrote image

#two dataframes in one kable
df1=table_cara_animals_global
df2=table_cara_animals_precis
kable(
  list(df1,df2),
  booktabs=T,
  caption="kable Caracteristiques des groupes étudiés",
  align="c"
) %>% 
  kable_styling(latex_options = c("striped","hold_position"))

t1=kable(df1,booktabs=T,align="c")
t2=kable(df2,booktabs=T,align="c",digits=2)

#two kables, each for each dataframe inside a kables()
kables(
  list(t1,t2),
  caption=c("kables of 2 kable Caracteristiques des groupes étudiés")
  ) %>%
  kable_styling(latex_options = c("striped","hold_position"),position="center")
