Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ NewCommand and Table

[kribot]

Hello All,

I am new to the forum, a bit less to LaTeX but mostly learned through website.
I made a new command to include table a bit more easily. It is working but I have some compilator warning / error that I can bypass saying there's a missing item or undefined control sequence.

Here's the code

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\dtoprule}{\specialrule{1pt}{0pt}{0.4pt}%
            \specialrule{0.3pt}{0pt}{\belowrulesep}%
            }
\newcommand{\dbottomrule}{\specialrule{0.3pt}{0pt}{0.4pt}%
            \specialrule{1pt}{0pt}{\belowrulesep}%
            }
            
\newcommand{\autotable}[5]{
\begin{table}[!htb]
\centering
\caption{#2}
\begin{threeparttable}
\begin{tabular*}{\linewidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}} l*{#3}{c}}
\dtoprule
\input{#1}
\midrule
\dbottomrule
\end{tabular*}
\begin{tablenotes}[flushleft]
{\small \item[] \input{#4}}
\end{tablenotes}
\end{threeparttable}
\label{table:#5}
\end{table}
}

I tried to put the \item[] inside the tablenotes but still. Does anyone have an idea or already experienced that ?

Maybe there is also a better way to do, let me know.

Thanks for any guess

I'm just guessing here, because you haven't provided a real test case, a.k.a. minimal working example, but I'd switch

Code: Select all

{\small \item[] \input{#4}}

to something like

Code: Select all

\item[] {\small\input{#4}}

If that doesn't help, I'd need to know what's in #4, at least.
If you provide a minimal working example, even better
