Hi,

The answer probably is No.

In principle, the usage section is in verbatim and I think that the R help 
system respects that also in html.
But how the html is rendered depends on the style used by the renderer, which 
may have other ideas and may reflow the text depending on the width of the 
window.

Subject: [R-pkg-devel] Alignment of Function Arguments For PDF Manual and HTML

Good day,

If I have a function definition in the Usage section of an R documentation file 
(file name ending in .Rd) that requires two or more lines to specify, can I 
format it so that the first letter of the first variable on the second and 
subsequent lines is aligned with the opening bracket of the function in the PDF 
manual created by R CMD Rd2pdf and has the same appearance in the HTML page 
shown in RStudio? I notice that if I align the text for a particular output 
format, it doesn't look aligned in the other. The package I am developing is a 
part of Bioconductor, so I can't modify options to Rd2pdf.
