Adding an image to header/footer - or at least not overwriting an existing image LEFT while editing RIGHT

[SchmidtPaul]

I currently need to an image to the LEFT header of all my sheets. Am I understanding correctly that this does not work?

• wb_add_image() wont do headers and
• wb_set_header_footer() wont do images

I actually would not even have to add the image, as it is already present in the template xlsx I am using. However, since I am loading the template via wb_load() and must then edit the content of the RIGHT header, it will automatically replace the LEFT header as well. This is confusing to me, because in the docs it says "Use NA to skip a position." but the following code will remove the image in the LEFT header anyway:

wb$set_header_footer(
  sheet = 1,
  header = c(NA, NA, "my_edit")
)

Hi @SchmidtPaul , this is indeed not supported, but I got something for you. Maybe you get it working: #929

Let me know, maybe we can work to implement this

Regarding the header ... yeah, sorry. No idea. I have literally zero use for this, hence haven't looked at it ever, other than fixing issues. Therefore, any suggestion/help is appreciated.

Hi @SchmidtPaul , could you have a look if #1211 fixes your issue?
