Hi Michael,
thank for you answer.
Where do I have to put the code snippet "p(3cm)"? Is it neither an
official argument to xtable() nor to print.xtable().
From the help about the align argument:
Character vector of length equal to the number of columns of the
resulting table, indicating the alignment of the corresponding columns.
Also, "|" may be used to produce vertical lines between columns in LaTeX
tables, but these are effectively ignored when considering the required
length of the supplied vector. If a character vector of length one is
supplied, it is split as strsplit(align, "")[[1]] before processing.
Since the row names are printed in the first column, the length of align
is one greater than ncol(x) if x is a data.frame. Use "l", "r", and "c"
to denote left, right, and center alignment, respectively. Use "p{3cm}"
etc. for a LaTeX column of the specified width. For HTML output the "p"
alignment is interpreted as "l", ignoring the width request. Default
depends on the class of x.
Could you give me a hint?
Kind regards
Georg

Does p{3cm} do what you want as an alignment?

Hi All,
I have the following code in R Markdown document:
```{r, results = "asis", echo = FALSE}
library(xtable)
response <- as.data.frame(matrix(NA, 2, 2))
colnames(response) <- c("Anzahl", "Prozent")
rownames(response) <- c("gesamte R�cksendungen (brutto) ",
"auswertbare Frageb�gen (netto) ")
response[[1, 1]] <- 1
response[[1, 2]] <- 2.0
response[[2, 1]] <- 3
response[[2, 2]] <- 4.0
response_table <- xtable(
response,
caption = "R�cklauf und R�cklaufquote",
label = "Responsequote",
display = c("s","d","f"),
digits = 1,
align = c("l", "c", "c") # auto = TRUE
)
print.xtable(
response_table,
type = "html",
caption.placement = "top",
format.args = list(
big.mark = ".",
decimal.mark = ","),
size = 500,
width = 100)
```
and would like to control the width of the columns. But columns width is
always aligned to the content.
Is there a way to give the columns width, e.g. 25 characters, for all
columns or for each column separately to get more spacing for the text and
the borders of the table?
Kind regards
Georg
