layout_design: Define the grid to compose plots in

Description

To control how different plots are laid out, you need to add a layout design specification. If you are nesting grids, the layout is scoped to the current nesting level.

Usage

layout_design(
  ncol = waiver(),
  nrow = waiver(),
  byrow = waiver(),
  widths = waiver(),
  heights = waiver(),
  design = waiver(),
  guides = NA
)

Value

A layout_design object.

Arguments

ncol, nrow

The dimensions of the grid to create - if both are NULL it will use the same logic as facet_wrap() to set the dimensions

byrow

If FALSE the plots will be filled in in column-major order.

widths, heights

The relative widths and heights of each column and row in the grid. Will get repeated to match the dimensions of the grid. The special value of NA will behave as 1null unit unless a fixed aspect plot is inserted in which case it will allow the dimension to expand or contract to match the aspect ratio of the content.

design

Specification of the location of areas in the layout. Can either be specified as a text string or by concatenating calls to area() together.

guides

A string with one or more of "t", "l", "b", "r", and "i" indicating which side of guide legends should be collected. Defaults to waiver(), which inherits from the parent layout. If there is no parent layout, or if NULL is provided, no guides will be collected.

Examples

p1 <- ggplot(mtcars) +
    geom_point(aes(mpg, disp))
p2 <- ggplot(mtcars) +
    geom_boxplot(aes(gear, disp, group = gear))
p3 <- ggplot(mtcars) +
    geom_bar(aes(gear)) +
    facet_wrap(~cyl)
align_plots(p1, p2, p3) +
    layout_design(nrow = 1L)
align_plots(p1, p2, p3) +
    layout_design(ncol = 1L)
