Couldn't find a nice way of formatting thsi but as you can see the type body has id of 13.

Now when I try to code this in: 

GSK_Comparison <- function(PP,title,sub1,sub2,footer, table1,table2){
  PP <- PP %>% 
    add_slide(layout = "Comparison", master = "Office Theme") %>%
    ph_with_text(type = "title", str = title) %>%
    ph_with_text(type = "body",index = 11, str = sub1) %>%
    ph_with_flextable(value = table1,type= "body",index = 4) %>%
    ph_with_text(type = "body",index = 13, str = sub2) %>%
    ph_with_flextable(value = table2, type = "body", index = 6) %>%
    ph_with_text(type = "dt", str = format(Sys.Date())) %>%
    ph_with_text(type = "ftr",str = footer)
}

I get the following error message: Error in slide$get_location(type = type, index = index) : body can only have 6 element(s) but index is set to 11

But not sure why this is occuring as clearly there are ID's of 11 and 13 for the type of body

Thanks in advance!

  • `index` is placeholder index (integer). This is to be used when a placeholder type is not unique in the current slide, e.g. two placeholders with type 'body', the first one will be added with index 1 and the second one with index 2. – David Gohel Dec 27 '18 at 10:11
  • Thanks - I have now looked at it and got it working but wondered how you defined indexes. will these always be in the order of index so index of 11 would be 5 and 13 would always be 6? I just tried all options to find out where they should be, but wondered if there was a set way - thanks for your help – Zuti Dec 27 '18 at 17:43
  • I don't know why you are using 5, or 13, etc. It always starts with 1 in a slide, if you have two body placeholders, their index will be 1 and 2. – David Gohel Dec 28 '18 at 14:12
