cowplot (version 1.1.3)

draw_plot_label: Add a label to a plot

Description

This function adds a plot label to the upper left corner of a graph (or an arbitrarily specified position). It takes all the same parameters as draw_text, but has defaults that make it convenient to label graphs with letters A, B, C, etc. Just like draw_text(), it can handle vectors of labels with associated coordinates.

Usage

draw_plot_label(
  label,
  x = 0,
  y = 1,
  hjust = -0.5,
  vjust = 1.5,
  size = 16,
  fontface = "bold",
  family = NULL,
  color = NULL,
  colour,
  ...
)
