In quarto, I a trying to add inline code within a figure subcaption, I have tried several things but none seem to work. Below is a reproducible example:
test=403.87
#| label: example
#| code-fold: true
#| fig-show: "hold"
#| layout-ncol: 2
#| fig-cap: !expr "paste0('R expression in the caption works: ',test)"
#| fig-subcap:
#| - !expr "test"
#| - !expr "paste0('R expression in the subcaption does not work: ',test)"
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(airquality, aes(Temp, Ozone)) +
geom_point() +
geom_smooth(method = "loess", se = FALSE)
ggplot(airquality, aes(Temp, Ozone)) +
geom_point() +
geom_smooth(method = "lm", se = FALSE)
This is not supported in fig-subcap
. The quarto developers recommend this approach instead:
---
title: "Test"
format: html
---
```{r}
#| echo: false
test=403.87
```
:::: {#fig-test layout="[1,1]"}
::: {#fig-test-1}
```{r}
#| echo: false
plot(1:10)
```
`{r} paste0('R expression in the subcaption works too: ',test)`
:::
::: {#fig-test-2}
```{r}
#| echo: false
plot(1:10)
```
`{r} test`
:::
`{r} paste0('R expression in the caption works: ',test)`
::::
Which produces this output:
