# Adding notes with threeparttable, but not as an item

I like to add simple notes text under a table. The threeparttable seem to be attractive because it fits the table well. But it is only working with item notes. What is the correct way to adding table notes that are not listed items?

• Welcome to TeX.SX! Please help us help you and add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. Reproducing the problem and finding out what the issue is will be much easier when we see compilable code, starting with \documentclass{...} and ending with \end{document}. Jun 23 at 10:02
• Welcome to TX SX! You can add a new row (without horizontal line afterwards) with this code: \multicolumn{n}{p{some length}}, where n is the number of columns of the initial table. Jun 23 at 10:03
• You can add pretty much anything inside a table environment: images, text, even minipages with footnotes. threepartable not so much, since it has to measure the width of the tabular. Jun 23 at 14:49

With talltblr defined in the tabularray package this can be simple to achieve:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{microtype}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{tabularray}
\UseTblrLibrary{booktabs, siunitx}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}
\begin{table}[ht]
\sisetup{table-format=-1.2{***},
input-close-uncertainty=,
input-open-uncertainty=,
round-mode = places,
round-precision = 2
}
\centering
\SetTblrStyle{note}{font=\small, fg=red}
\begin{talltblr}[
caption = {Effect of x on y},
note{} = {\lipsum[66]}
]{colspec={l *{2}{S S[table-format={(}1.2{(}]}},
row{1-2,X,Y,Z} = {guard},
}
\toprule

\cmidrule[r]{2-3} \cmidrule[l]{4-5}

(table example is taken form my answer). Note below table is emphasize with red color, which you can change to some else, for example gray, or use default black by removing fg=red from \SetTblrStyle{note}{...}.
