merge_across: Merge cells across rows or down columns
Description
merge_across() creates multicolumn cells within each row.
merge_down() creates multirow cells within each column.
Usage
merge_across(ht, row, col)
merge_down(ht, row, col)
Value
The ht object.
Arguments
ht
A huxtable.
row
A row specifier. See rowspecs for details.
col
An optional column specifier.
Cell content
In merged cell ranges, only the top left cell's content is displayed.
In addition, when you merge cells (either by setting colspan() or
rowspan(), or using merge_cells() and friends) the content of the top
left cell is copied to other cells. This prevents unexpected changes to
content if you reorder or subset rows and columns.
