I have a problem with longtable
and the position of a table note created by threeparttablex
, as the MWE below demonstrates. The first table stretches to the full textwidth and the position of the table note is incorrect. The second table does not specify any table size and the table note is correct. Am I doing something wrong?
\documentclass[11pt]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[showframe]{geometry}
\usepackage{longtable,threeparttablex,booktabs}
\begin{document}
\begin{ThreePartTable}
\begin{TableNotes}[para,flushleft]This is a wrong tablenote\end{TableNotes}
\setlength\LTleft{0pt}
\setlength\LTright{0pt}
\begin{longtable}{@{\hskip\tabcolsep\extracolsep\fill}l*{3}{c}}
\caption{Longtable with Full Textwidth}\\
\toprule
Variable 1 & 1.85 & 0.92 & 1.11 \\
& (0.34) & (0.24) & (0.14) \\
\bottomrule
\insertTableNotes
\end{longtable}
\end{ThreePartTable}
\begin{ThreePartTable}
\begin{TableNotes}[para,flushleft]This is a good tablenote\end{TableNotes}
\begin{longtable}[c]{l*{3}{c}}
\caption{Normal Longtable}\\
\toprule
Variable 1 & 1.85 & 0.92 & 1.11 \\
& (0.34) & (0.24) & (0.14) \\
\bottomrule
\insertTableNotes
\end{longtable}
\end{ThreePartTable}
\end{document}

It appears that
threeparttablex
is only able to measure the natural width of the table, so the “\fill
” components are not taken into account. But since you know the width, in that case, you can redefine\TPTminimum
for the duration of the environment:
