Right-align text column in a table

[Christopher Bratt]

Is there any way to right-align a text column in a table, either with the kable function in knitr, or with kableExtra?

(I have browsed and googled for an answer, but with no success.)

With Kable you can do a lot of visual things. Here in my example of piece of code you can se how it works:

kable(data, "html", format.args = list(decimal.mark = '.', big.mark = ","), linesep = "", align = "c", booktabs = T,digits = c(0,0,0,0,2))

Check the "align" function....

Thanks.

I believe this is for aligning the whole table (centered on the page)? I need to get down to a single column and align text within that single column  (and not manipulate any of the other columns).

Youre right.

In that case use this:

row_spec(7:7, bold = T, color = "#000000", background = "red")

You can specify the hole format, and a specific colum, row or value.

row_spec or col_spec, i forgot that

Thanks, but I don't think col_spec includes the option to align text. 

Anyway, I have decided to use a different approach. Thanks for your effort!
