A spare, Tufte-inspired look. An old-style serif on a warm white ground, italic column labels, and a single hairline under them. There are no vertical rules, no rules between rows, and no fills. A faint hairline closes the body.
Usage
gt_theme_tufte(
gt_object,
accent = "#111111",
density = c("comfortable", "compact", "social"),
...
)Arguments
- gt_object
A
gttable object to modify.- accent
Character. A hex color for the header hairline and the row-group labels. Defaults to
"#111111", near-black. A muted red or rust gives the Tufte marginal accent.- density
Character. The type and padding scale. One of
"comfortable","compact", or"social". See Density. Defaults to"comfortable".- ...
Additional arguments passed to
gt::tab_options, applied last so they override anything the theme sets.
Density
density sets the type and padding scale together. "comfortable" uses a
14px body with roomy rows, "compact" a 12px body with tight rows, and
"social" a 17px body with generous rows and a larger title, at the scale
gt_save_crop() and gt_social_crop() export at.
See also
gt_theme_booktabs() for a firmer, academic relative.
