I'm using the nice xtable package to create latex tables that are converted to PDF via Rmarkdown. To just have on horizontal line after the column names, the following is working fine:

tt <- diag(5)

print(xtable(tt),hline.after=0)

To explain colums and rows, I want to add a little text beneath the table. But if I follow the recommendations here to use xtableList, adjusting the horizontal lines doesn't work anymore.

ttlist <- list(tt)

attr(ttlist, "message") <- c("Rows contain x", "Colums contain y")

print(xtableList(ttlist),hline.after=0)

I would be very happy for any suggestions on how to get xtableList to draw horizontal lines at other places than the default ones of c(-1,0,nrow(x)).

If you're open to using a different package (i.e. mine!), try:

library(huxtable)
ht <- as_hux(diag(5))
bottom_border(ht)[1,] <- 1
ht <- add_footnote(ht, "Rows contain x, columns contain y") # for example
