1d:T7e0,# Return or set ignore_cell_padding These property functions modify and return the ignore_cell_padding attribute of a `rtf_doc` object. By default, the huxtable package will pad rows of a table. This attribute will remove those default settings – which allow the cells to have a smaller amount of padding than setting the cell padding to 0. See the Details section for a more thorough description of the implementation. ```r ignore_cell_padding(x, ...) ignore_cell_padding(x) <- value set_ignore_cell_padding(x, value) ``` ## Arguments - `x`: A `rtf_doc` object - `...`: Additonal arguments passed to method dispatch - `value`: A logical value to set the attribute ## Returns For `ignore_cell_padding()`, the ignore_cell_padding attribute of the supplied `rtf_doc` object. For ```ignore_cell_padding<-`()`` and `set_ignore_cell_padding()`, the modified object. ## Details Cell padding in RTF code has multiple command words associated with it. Huxtable uses the command word \clpadN to control the cell padding. This command word is additionally controlled by the command word \clpadfN. There are two possible values for N in \clpadfN: * 0: Null. This ignores \clpad\ in favor of \trgaph (Word 97 style cell padding). * 3: Twips The ignore_cell_padding function toggles the \clpadfN command words in the RTF document to 0 instead of 3. By using Word 97 style cell padding, the minimum amount of space is closer than using the 0 twips setting when the RTF is rendered inside Word. This effectively closes the gap between rows, which may be a desirable appearance in some outputs. More information on these RTF settings can be found [here](http://www.biblioscape.com/rtf15_spec.htm). ## Examples ```r library(huxtable) ht <- huxtable( column1 = 1:5, column2 = letters[1:5] ) rtf <- rtf_doc(ht, list(hf_line("aTitle"))) ignore_cell_padding(rtf) # Returns FALSE, the default ignore_cell_padding(rtf) <- TRUE # Sets ignore_cell_padding to TRUE ```
