flextable background colour issues












1















I am making a flextable using the iris dataset and have noticed an odd issue with the background colour function. I am trying to conditionally colour cells if they are over a certain value:



 regulartable(iris) %>%
bg(i=1, j=which(iris[1,1:4] > 5), "green")


enter image description here



It works fine if at least one of the cells satisfies the condition for j, but if non of them do it colours the whole line rather than colouring nothing:



 regulartable(iris) %>%
bg(i=1, j=which(iris[1,1:4] > 6), "green")


enter image description here



Is there a way to make it only colour if the condition is met? Also is this a feature or a bug in the flextable package?



Edit:



This has been resolved by version 0.5.1 of the flextable package.

    Thanks for reporting this. This is a side effect, when selecting none, everything is selected which is a bad idea, sorry. I will correct that but I must be careful (as it may break user's code).

  • No probs, I have a workaround for now so not needed urgently or anything :) Are you able to post an answer when you release the fix?

  • Looks like this has been fixed in the new release, thanks :) one small thing, not all the lines in the table have been removed. Is this by design as well?

  • I did not change the selector yet, it will be done in the next run
