Line Break Within a Text Element

Inserts a line break within a single title line, footnote line, or column label. Use this when you need a multi-line label that is logically one element (e.g. a column header that wraps to two lines).

In most cases you can use a literal "\\n" in your string instead. fr_newline() is provided for use inside glue expressions where a literal newline would be awkward or ambiguous.

Usage

fr_newline()

Value

An fr_markup object that resolves to a line break at render time.

Rendering

In RTF output, the newline resolves to \\line (a soft line break within the same paragraph). In future LaTeX output, it maps to \\\\. The layout engine accounts for newlines when calculating row height.

See also

fr_col() for column labels, fr_titles() for title lines.

Examples

# Multi-line column header via newline markup
fr_col("Treatment{fr_newline()}Arm", width = 1.5)
#> <fr_col> "Treatment{fr_newline()}Arm" [1.50in, left]

# Equivalent using literal newline (simpler — preferred)
fr_col("Treatment\nArm", width = 1.5)
#> <fr_col> "Treatment
#> Arm" [1.50in, left]
