I am trying to include FontAwesome icons in R Quarto. I am rendering to a presentation in PPTX. However, it does not matter which presentation final type I select or any other output type.
Sample code to replicate issue:
```{mermaid}
flowchart TD
B["fab:fa-twitter for peace"]
B-->C[fa:fa-ban forbidden]
B-->D(fa:fa-spinner)
B-->E(A fa:fa-camera-retro perhaps?)
```
The nodes render but none of the fa:* items are showing. I see the class is created in the HTML (if rendered to Reveal.JS or HTML):
<i class="fab fa-twitter"></i>
How can I get R Quarto (or other R markdown) using mermaid to include the font awesome icons?
You may want to look at the fontawesome extension which works at least for HTML outputs. I assume that by initializing in the text instead of only using the mermaid environment, it has the necessary HTML font awesome dependency to render the icons correctly.

format: html

Initialize {{< fa thumbs-up >}} and then it should work:
```{mermaid}
flowchart TD
B["fab:fa-twitter for peace"]
B-->C[fa:fa-ban forbidden]
B-->D(fa:fa-spinner)
B-->E(A fa:fa-camera-retro perhaps?)
```
I'm trying to add an image before the title in gitbook style bookdown project. This is similar to this question from the RStudio Community page, but I would like the image to appear only before the title, not every top-level heading.
I've created a reprex here: https://bd-reprex.netlify.app/
I've edited the _output.yml to include:
bookdown::gitbook:
...
includes:
before_body: assets/logo.html
However, as can be seen in the example above, the image now appears before every chapter, not just before the title.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
This question was answered here.
The solution is to add a JS codeblock to the end of the index.Rmd file, such as
```{js, echo = FALSE}
title=document.getElementById('header');
title.innerHTML = '<img src="/path/to/img.png" alt="Test Image">' + title.innerHTML
```
From https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/latex-logo.html
title: |
{width=1in}
Adding a Logo to LaTeX Title
NB: although you cannot see them, there are two trailing spaces after {width=1in}, which means a line break in Markdown. Without the line break, the image and the title would be on the same line, which may not be what you desire.
See also related question: How to have Frontpage Image before chapter title and book title?
The example below (i.e. saved as a file index.rmd ) has the same code chunk to display an image above and below the top level heading, but the image doesn't appear above the top level heading. This occurs if there is a file _output.yml with only this entry bookdown::gitbook: in the same directory.
That line seems to enforce a table of contents (which I want) and that appears to strip out anything (image or text) before the first top level heading by default (which I don't want) - so can this behaviour be modified?

```{r echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE}
library(imager)
im <- load.image(system.file('extdata/Leonardo_Birds.jpg',package='imager'))
plot(im, axes=FALSE)
```
# R Markdown
```{r echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE}
library(imager)
im <- load.image(system.file('extdata/Leonardo_Birds.jpg',package='imager'))
plot(im, axes=FALSE)
```
What follows is workaround to your Options 2 and 3, using Markdown and CSS to style images and HTML+CSS to style text; also, using base64 image (transparent gif) generator as an space separator between elements.
Beware of whitespaces! (at the end of each line - place two white spaces and hit ENTER)
Does one of these approaches/hacks work for you? If not, it would be better to delete the answer, it may be misleading to others.

Using Markdown table to "style" images |-| (left-aligned), |:-:| (centered) and |-:| (right-aligned) will work well with simple RMarkdown outputs.
I realised that you have an image under # top level heading positioned at the very top of the page - with top:0px. causing image duplication and, possibly, hover problem:
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/GiViTbA.png" style="position:absolute;top:0px;height:100px;" />
replace with:
{width=50px style="display: block; margin:0 auto;"}
and see what will happen.

title: |
{width=300px style="display: block; margin:0 auto;"}
{width=50px}
R Markdown Title
{width=50px}
output:
html_document: default
---
# I'm a top level heading {-}
{width=50px style="display: block; margin:0 auto;"}
Note, you need to replace the image with a local image if you want to show the image in the rstudio viewer.
The image will be visible in the html file created when you knit, if you open in a browser connected to the internet.

EDIT:
Let's try to find a common ground, A Minimal Book Example, github here.
Adjustments made in index.Rmd:
---
title: |
{height=300px}
author: "Author Name"
date: "`r Sys.Date()`"
site: bookdown::bookdown_site
output: bookdown::gitbook
---
# Prerequisites
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/GiViTbA.png" style="position:absolute;top:50px;height:300px;align:center;" />
This is a _sample_ book written in **Markdown**. You can use anything that Pandoc's Markdown supports, e.g., a math equation $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$.
index.Rmd output:
Adjustments made in Chapter: Introduction (01-intro.Rmd):
# Introduction {#intro}
{height=240px}
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/GiViTbA.png" style="position:absolute;top:50px;height:300px;align:center;" />
You can label chapter and section titles using `{#label}` after them, e.g., we can reference Chapter \#ref(intro). If you do not manually label them, there will be automatic labels anyway, e.g., Chapter \#ref(methods).
01-intro.Rmd output:
With this solution we are "masking" a top level heading (# Introduction) with .png image, which will appear in the Table of Content as text.
Disadvantage: besides the obvious hack, image width must be at least equal or wider than top level heading title.
Note: 3 options are provided here, and none of them are perfect. The perfect solution may rely on modifications to the bookdown package?
Option 1:
Use includes with before_body like this in your _output.yml file (suggested here):
bookdown::gitbook:
css: assets/style.css
includes:
before_body: assets/big-image.html
after_body: assets/footer.html
Disadvantages:
i) Requires making a html file just to insert an image.
ii) If using a web-based image, won't show in Rstudio viewer.
iii) If using a local image, path can get mixed up and won't show in online web html rendering
iv) Includes image at the top of each chapter of bookdown if using before_body: my_image.html. Alternative option in_header: my_image.html does not seem compatible with the sidebar index.
Option 2
Insert image via yaml in index.rmd, using the solution under Tip 3 Add a Logo in your title/header/footer at this blog post
---
title: |
My title
Disadvantages:
i) When you hover over the image, it displays a copy of the image in a slightly different location (Can this "Hover" behaviour be disabled?)
ii) If using a web-based image, won't show in Rstudio viewer.
iii) If using a local image, path can get mixed up and won't show in online web html rendering
Option 3
The code below borrowed from here (which you can place below the top level heading) presumably goes direct through the knitting process and inserts itself in the final html. The issue is that the image doesn't make room for itself and ends up over the first text. Is there some simple html/css to sort this out?
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/GiViTbA.png" style="position:absolute;top:0px;height:100px;" />
Disadvantages:
i) Image doesn't make room for itself and ends up over the first text. You can get around this with a hack by coding extra space (trial and error) through the yaml title like this:
title: |

EDIT
This is superseded by Radovan's accepted answer.
This was the best answer, taking option 3 from my previous answer, and combining a code approach to making the relevant space from Radovan's answer.
You will still have problems if you want to include a title in the YAML (I don't need this, as my title is in the image).
Also, on first loading the page, it presents nicely, but image is not seen if you go to the top of the document using the table of contents (the inheader approach used by this bookdown shows a better behaviour, but appears at the top of every chapter, which is not desired).

{height=300px}

```{r echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE}
plot(cars)
```
The problem of hovering the image duplicating the image can be fixed by removing the line below from the css file that is generated at \libs\gitbook-2.6.7\css\style.css
.book .book-header h1 a:hover{color:inherit;text-decoration:none}#media (max-width:1000px){.book .book-header h1{display:none}}
as a result, this code below places the image right above the title:

I have a docked QTextEdit which I am using to emulate a debug terminal in a QT c++ gui, and have it set to a black background with white text.
I am trying to use it to print out error messages from QXmlSchemaValidator, but the messages from the schema validator are in html format, and whenever I insert them into the QTextEdit, it reverts to it's default font, and I end up with black text on a black background.
The actual message is something like:
<html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/'>
<body>
<p>Content of element
<span class='XQuery-keyword'>minValue</span> does not match its type definition: <span class='XQuery-data'>fu</span> is not valid according to <span class='XQuery-type'>xs:decimal</span>..
</p>
</body>
</html>
using setAcceptRichText(false) doesn't solve the problem, and if I use insertPlainText() to add text to the lineEdit, it removes all the line breaks and leaves the html tags in the error message, which is unacceptable.
Is there some way I can display the HTML rich text, but without blowing away my style sheet font?
I tested it on my computer. It works perfectly. Use this:
edit->setHtml(htmlDescription);
edit->selectAll();
edit->setTextColor(Qt::green);
//Ok, but clear selection
QTextCursor cur = edit->textCursor();
cur.clearSelection();
edit->setTextCursor(cur);
It's sort of a kludge, but the workaround that I went with was to remove the HTML tags from the schema validator message before adding it to the text edit.
QString errorMsg = msg.statusMessage().remove(QRegExp("<[^>]*>"));
textEdit->setText(errorMsg);
In my application im trying to load a simple formatted text with some images into QTextBrowser. When im trying to set my image size using :
<img style="width: 128px; height: 128px;" src=":/new/prefix1/Star-five.png"/>
The qtextbrowser is automatically modifying my html and removing "style". Is there something i do wrong? Im setting this style from form editor.
Question asnwered. Need to use width height properties without "px".
