Apply theme AAGI to a flextable. An AAGI formatted table body is grey with a teal header and white header font. Header text is bold, text columns are left aligned, other columns are right aligned.
Arguments
- x
a flextable object
Value
a formatted flextable object
Behaviour
Theme functions are not like ggplot2 themes. They are applied to the existing table immediately. If you add a row in the footer, the new row is not formatted with the theme. The theme function applies the theme only to existing elements when the function is called.
That is why theme functions should be applied after all elements of the table have been added (mainly additional header or footer rows).
If you want to automatically apply a theme function to each
flextable object, you can use the theme_fun argument of
flextable::set_flextable_defaults(); be aware that this theme function is
applied as the last instruction when calling flextable::flextable() – so
if you add headers or footers to the array, they will not be formatted with
the theme.
You can also use the post_process_html argument of
flextable::set_flextable_defaults() (or post_process_pdf,
post_process_docx, post_process_pptx) to specify a theme to be applied
systematically before the flextable::flextable() is printed; in this
case, don't forget to take care that the theme doesn't override any
formatting done before the print statement.
