1 1.8-2 (NOT YET SUBMITTED TO CRAN)
2 * Added function print.xtableMatharray to enable easy creation of
3 LaTeX code to enable an array to be included in a document.
4 * Added example to the gallery using sanitizing headings and row
5 names to produce large bold headings and italic row names.
6 * Added code from Martin Gubri, martin.gubri@framasoft.org, to produce
7 tables from the spatial econometrics packages, spdep, splm, and
9 * Extracted sanitize functions from print.xtable as stand-alone
10 functions, and exported them. Added helper functions as.is and
11 as.math for assistance with sanitization (supplied by Stefan
12 Edwards <sme@iysik.com> in Feature Request #5303).
13 * Added option to produce math style exponents when sanitizing
14 numbers, as suggested by Don Armstrong <don@donarmstrong.com>, who
16 * Fixed bug #6907. Warning was created when the data frame as no
17 rows for type is 'html'. Added a test to create the matrix
18 requested specially in that case. Original code was
19 BTD2 <- matrix(align.tmp[(2-pos):(ncol(x)+1)],
20 nrow = nrow(x), ncol = ncol(x)+pos, byrow = TRUE)
21 which created a matrix with no rows, but gave a warning when
22 there were no rows in the data frame being processed.
23 * Fixed bug #6260. Accepted the change suggested by Claudius
24 Loehnert, which was to replace { and } by \begingroup and
25 \endgroup respectively as the delimiters when size was to changed
27 * Added functions xtableList and print.xtableList to produce
28 composite tables consisting of a number of subtables.
29 * Added xtableFtable and print.xtableFtable to format flat tables
30 produced by ftable. Included examples in the xtable gallery.
31 * Produced new vignettes: 'The xtableList Gallery' to illustrate
32 xtableList and print.xtableList; and 'The Other Packages Gallery'
33 to illustrate methods for classes of objects from other packages.
36 * autoformat, xalign, xdigits, xdisplay from Arni Magnusson, added
37 along with help file. Feature request #5686.
38 * New argument 'auto' in xtable(), to call xalign, xdigits, and
39 xdisplay at the time when xtable is created.
40 * Updated xtableGallery vignette, now with TOC and revised examples.
43 * Changed tags in HTML to be all lower case, to be compatible with
44 HTML5, part of feature request. (#5879)
45 * Fixed booktabs bug (#2309), more of an enhancement really. Updated
46 xtableGallery.snw to illustrate the change.
49 * Dealt with format.args bug (#4770). No code changes, but the
50 documentation of print.xtable was changed to warn of the problem
51 and to give a workaround as an example.
54 * Fixed logicals bug. (Req #1911)
55 * Changed implementation of centering of tables. Instead of
56 inserting a centered environment, now a \centering command is
58 * Allow for margin tables as possible with document class
59 tufte-handout. An example of usage is found in the vignette.
60 produced by margintable.Rnw which is in inst/doc. (Req #2168)
61 * Added "timestamp" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to NULL
62 if no timestamp is desired. (Req #2246)
63 * Added "comment" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to FALSE
64 to exclude the version and timestamp comment. (Req #2246)
65 * Added "caption.width" argument. If not NULL then the caption
66 is placed in a "parbox" of the specified width. (Req #2247)
67 * Remove the check on whether the "floating.environment" is in a
68 list of known floating environments. Users want to use floating
69 environments from multiple options LaTeX packages. (Req #2488,
73 * Added some vectorization code to improve performance.
74 * Let "caption" be length 2, in which case the second value is
75 the short caption used when creating a list of tables.
76 * Added "toLatex" method.
77 * Included "print.xtable" in the exported methods in the NAMESPACE file.
78 * Added "print.results" argument to "print" that can be used to
79 suppress the printing.
80 * Added "format.args" argument to "print" that can be used to
81 pass additional arguments such as "big.marks" to "formatC()".
82 * Added "rotate.colnames" and "rotate.rownames" arguments to
84 * Added "booktabs" argument to use the "\toprule", "\midrule", and
85 "\bottomrule" tags from the Latex "booktabs" package rather than
86 using "\hline" for all horizontal lines.
87 * Added "scalebox" argument to include a "\scalebox" clause around
88 the tabular environment with the specified value used as the
90 * Added "width" argument to allow specification of the width
91 value in tabular environments such as "tabularx".
92 * Added "X" as an allowed alignment value in the "align()"
94 * Changed the "print.xtable()" arguments to use "getOption()"
95 to check the options for a default value. This was suggested
96 since "print.xtable()" has a lot of arguments that the user
97 will typically leave unchanged between tables.
98 * Added an "is.null()" check on the "table.placement" argument.
99 * Added examples using the new arguments to the vignette.
102 * Allow "table*" as a value for "floating.environment" in print.xtable().
103 * Fix bug under which multiple logical columns were formatted incorrectly.
104 * Stop with an error if "xtable.table" is used on a table with more than
106 * Add some newlines to "Rd" file to prevent lines from extending off the
107 page in the PDF version of the help files.
108 * Changed the maintainer to "Charles Roosen".
109 * Created an "xtable" project on R-Forge.
112 * Support caption at the top in the LaTeX longtable.
113 * Use options()$OutDec for decimal mark.
116 * Added html.table.attributes to set the attributed of the <TABLE> tag for
118 * Accommodated logicals by converting to characters.
119 * Add an extra space at end of each line for LaTeX tables.
120 * Fixed typographical error in documentation.
