Problem: My tables built with the wonderful kableExtra
package look like this:
How can I force the caption to be several lines if necessary adjusting to the minimum width of the table and not the other way around?
carbon_benefits%>%
set_names(c("Year","Date","Canary","Total","Date","Canary","Total"))%>%
kable(
caption = "\\label{tab:carbon_costs}Carbon sequestration values over time.",
booktabs = T,
escape = F,
linesep= "") %>%
kable_styling(latex_options = c("hold_position"))%>%
add_header_above(c("","Lower"=3,"Higher"=3))%>%
footnote(general=paste("Combining the totals for all years for both species yields a lower bound of ",round(sum(carbon_benefits$total_lower),digits=0)," and a higher bound of ",round(sum(carbon_benefits$total_upper),digits=0),".",sep = ""),
footnote_as_chunk = T)

You can use str_wrap
from the stringr
package to wrap the text into a reasonable line length:
footnote(general=
stringr::str_wrap(paste0("Combining the totals for all years for both species yields a lower bound of ",round(sum(carbon_benefits$total_lower),digits=0)," and a higher bound of ",round(sum(carbon_benefits$total_upper),digits=0),"."),
width=txtwidth),
footnote_as_chunk = T)
txtwidth can then be set to be a calculation of a reasonable length based on the expected number of columns. That depends on your data structure. Looks like about 5-6 chars per column in this case, so 35-40 characters?
