Function converts a gtsummary object to a knitr_kable object. This function is used in the background when the results are printed or knit. A user can use this function if they wish to add customized formatting available via knitr::kable.
Output from knitr::kable is less full featured compared to summary tables produced with gt. For example, kable summary tables do not include indentation, footnotes, or spanning header rows.
as_kable(x, include = everything(), return_calls = FALSE, exclude = NULL, ...)
x | Object created by a function from the gtsummary package (e.g. tbl_summary or tbl_regression) |

Tip: To better distinguish variable labels and level labels when
indenting is not supported, try bold_labels()
or italicize_levels()
.
