Potential features

[vincentarelbundock]

I am not sure if any of these features are worth implementing. If you care about one of those features very strongly, please open a separate issue on the Github issue tracker. Please explain why it is important, and let me know if you have suggestions for implementation.

• cbind
• Display tables side-by-side
• Fonts
  • Choose font in different languages and scripts
• Format captions and footnotes
• HTML-specific
  • tooltips (kableExtra)
  • scrollable box
    • Just a wrap the whole table in a div: <div style="border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 5px; overflow-y: scroll; height:200px; overflow-x: scroll; width:500px; ">...table...</div>
  • Column filters (DT, reactable)
  • Sortable columns (reactable)
  • Resizable columns (reactable)
  • Paginated tables (reactable)
  • placement: left, right, center (easy to achieve with CSS, so probably not necessary)
• Rotating text
• Export
  • Custom width, height, and resolution for image export
  • JPG
  • RTF
  • Powerpoint
  • SVG
  • Excel
  • Grob (R grid graphical object)
• Restack
  • huxtable has a function similar to reshape(). I'd rather let specialized tools handle this.
• Formatting options
  • gt has many fmt_() functions, but tinytable::format_tt() accepts a fn argument, which allows us to leverage many functions such as those in the scales package. See the tutorial on the website for examples.
