MD tables taking the entire column width

[drfurtado]

I currently have this table:

::: {#tbl-mytable apa-note="This is a note below the markdown table." apa-onecolumn="true"}

Default	Left	Right	Center
12	12	12	12
123	123	123	123
1	1	1	1

This is the rendered pdf

But I would like to have the table take the entire column. Is there an easy fix for this?

Thank you so much.

Try this:

::: {#tbl-mymarkdowntable apa-note="This is a note below the markdown table." onecolumn=true tbl-colwidths= "[25,25, 25, 25]"}
| Default | Left | Right | Center |
|---------|:-----|------:|:------:|
| 12      | 12   |    12 |   12   |
| 123     | 123  |   123 |  123   |
| 1       | 1    |     1 |   1    |

Thank you so much...
If you don't mind, may I ask you how to decrease the space between the table and the note below? I tried \vspace, but it did not work.

After updating to the latest version of apaquarto, try using the beforenotespace option like this:

::: {#tbl-mymarkdowntable apa-note="This is a note below the markdown table." onecolumn=true tbl-colwidths= "[25,25, 25, 25]" beforenotespace="-1em"}
| Default | Left | Right | Center |
|---------|:-----|------:|:------:|
| 12      | 12   |    12 |   12   |
| 123     | 123  |   123 |  123   |
| 1       | 1    |     1 |   1    |

I had two different installations of the extension in my dir. Once that was resolved, the beforenotespace="-1em" worked as expected.
Thank you so much!!!

I see that the authors names are indented, which does not look good.
It would be nice to remove the indentation from this chunck of text.

I agree that it looks bad. However, this is the way that it looks in most of the APA journals. There is some variation in how ORCID links are formatted, but all the examples I found are indented. If this formatting choice has changed recently, I would be happy to offer alternatives.
