Say you have two tableGrobs of different sizes, and you want the smaller grob to be top aligned. How might you proceed?

Here is an example:


library(gridExtra)

t1 <- cars[1:9,]

t2 <- cars[10:14,]

grid.arrange(tableGrob(t1), tableGrob(t2), ncol = 2)

How do we push the smaller table up?

You can use gtable_combine() from library(gridExtra) to align the tables. Refer to this link for additional explanation. https://mirror.its.dal.ca/cran/web/packages/gridExtra/vignettes/tableGrob.html

library(grid) 
library(gridExtra)
t1 <- cars[1:9,]
t2 <- cars[10:14,]
grid.arrange(gtable_combine(tableGrob(t1), tableGrob(t2), along=1), ncol = 1)
