Actual Behavior - Clipping

I'm using the R DT package with flexdashboard. When I add text to the body of a DT table, the bottom of the dashboard is clipped (to varying extents). See below.

---
title: "With text in the body the bottom is clipped"
output: flexdashboard::flex_dashboard
---

Notice at the bottom that "Showing X entries" and "Previous/Next" are both clipped

```{r}
library(DT)
datatable(mtcars)
```

bottom of dashboard clipped

Expected Behavior - No Clipping

If I remove the text from the body of my table everything behaves as expected. But I want my body text ¯_(ツ)_/¯. What to do?

Is this a bug I should report, or is there another solution I'm unaware of?

  • Interesting behavior. Try it with `#` or `##` or varying levels, a different output is returned. It seems as if the header tag is required and must be a specific height. – kraggle Jan 17 '23 at 16:33

    some Rmarkdown docs don't render right if there aren't the right Headers from my experience, like you want to try a blank doc, but without a header, it can look weird – Daniel_j_iii Jan 17 '23 at 22:09
