scheme_theme: Plot default theme

Description

scheme_theme() serves as the default theme and will always be overridden by any theme() settings applied directly to the plot. The default theme (scheme_theme()) is applied first, followed by any specific theme() settings, even if theme() is added before scheme_theme().

legend.text

legend item labels (element_text(); inherits from text)

legend.text.position

placement of legend text relative to legend keys or bars ("top", "right", "bottom" or "left"). The legend text placement might be incompatible with the legend's direction for some guides.

legend.title

title of legend (element_text(); inherits from title)

legend.title.position

placement of legend title relative to the main legend ("top", "right", "bottom" or "left").

legend.position

the default position of legends ("none", "left", "right", "bottom", "top", "inside")

legend.position.inside

A numeric vector of length two setting the placement of legends that have the "inside" position.

legend.direction

layout of items in legends ("horizontal" or "vertical")

legend.byrow

whether the legend-matrix is filled by columns (FALSE, the default) or by rows (TRUE).

legend.justification

anchor point for positioning legend inside plot ("center" or two-element numeric vector) or the justification according to the plot area when positioned outside the plot

legend.justification.top, legend.justification.bottom, legend.justification.left, legend.justification.right, legend.justification.inside

Same as legend.justification but specified per legend.position option.

legend.location

Relative placement of legends outside the plot as a string. Can be "panel" (default) to align legends to the panels or "plot" to align legends to the plot as a whole.

legend.box

arrangement of multiple legends ("horizontal" or "vertical")

legend.box.just

justification of each legend within the overall bounding box, when there are multiple legends ("top", "bottom", "left", or "right")

legend.box.margin

margins around the full legend area, as specified using margin()

legend.box.background

background of legend area (element_rect(); inherits from rect)

legend.box.spacing

The spacing between the plotting area and the legend box (unit)

panel.background

background of plotting area, drawn underneath plot (element_rect(); inherits from rect)

panel.border

border around plotting area, drawn on top of plot so that it covers tick marks and grid lines. This should be used with fill = NA (element_rect(); inherits from rect)

panel.spacing, panel.spacing.x, panel.spacing.y

spacing between facet panels (unit). panel.spacing.x & panel.spacing.y inherit from panel.spacing or can be specified separately.

panel.grid, panel.grid.major, panel.grid.minor, panel.grid.major.x, panel.grid.major.y, panel.grid.minor.x, panel.grid.minor.y

grid lines (element_line()). Specify major grid lines, or minor grid lines separately (using panel.grid.major or panel.grid.minor) or individually for each axis (using panel.grid.major.x, panel.grid.minor.x, panel.grid.major.y, panel.grid.minor.y). Y axis grid lines are horizontal and x axis grid lines are vertical. panel.grid.*.* inherits from panel.grid.* which inherits from panel.grid, which in turn inherits from line

panel.ontop

option to place the panel (background, gridlines) over the data layers (logical). Usually used with a transparent or blank panel.background.

plot.background

background of the entire plot (element_rect(); inherits from rect)

plot.title

plot title (text appearance) (element_text(); inherits from title) left-aligned by default

plot.title.position, plot.caption.position

Alignment of the plot title/subtitle and caption. The setting for plot.title.position applies to both the title and the subtitle. A value of "panel" (the default) means that titles and/or caption are aligned to the plot panels. A value of "plot" means that titles and/or caption are aligned to the entire plot (minus any space for margins and plot tag).

plot.subtitle

plot subtitle (text appearance) (element_text(); inherits from title) left-aligned by default

plot.caption

caption below the plot (text appearance) (element_text(); inherits from title) right-aligned by default

plot.tag

upper-left label to identify a plot (text appearance) (element_text(); inherits from title) left-aligned by default

plot.tag.position

The position of the tag as a string ("topleft", "top", "topright", "left", "right", "bottomleft", "bottom", "bottomright") or a coordinate. If a coordinate, can be a numeric vector of length 2 to set the x,y-coordinate relative to the whole plot. The coordinate option is unavailable for plot.tag.location = "margin".

plot.tag.location

The placement of the tag as a string, one of "panel", "plot" or "margin". Respectively, these will place the tag inside the panel space, anywhere in the plot as a whole, or in the margin around the panel space.

plot.margin

margin around entire plot (unit with the sizes of the top, right, bottom, and left margins)

strip.background, strip.background.x, strip.background.y

background of facet labels (element_rect(); inherits from rect). Horizontal facet background (strip.background.x) & vertical facet background (strip.background.y) inherit from strip.background or can be specified separately

strip.clip

should strip background edges and strip labels be clipped to the extend of the strip background? Options are "on" to clip, "off" to disable clipping or "inherit" (default) to take the clipping setting from the parent viewport.

strip.placement

placement of strip with respect to axes, either "inside" or "outside". Only important when axes and strips are on the same side of the plot.

strip.text, strip.text.x, strip.text.y, strip.text.x.top, strip.text.x.bottom, strip.text.y.left, strip.text.y.right

facet labels (element_text(); inherits from text). Horizontal facet labels (strip.text.x) & vertical facet labels (strip.text.y) inherit from strip.text or can be specified separately. Facet strips have dedicated position-dependent theme elements (strip.text.x.top, strip.text.x.bottom, strip.text.y.left, strip.text.y.right) that inherit from strip.text.x and strip.text.y, respectively. As a consequence, some theme stylings need to be applied to the position-dependent elements rather than to the parent elements

strip.switch.pad.grid

space between strips and axes when strips are switched (unit)

strip.switch.pad.wrap

space between strips and axes when strips are switched (unit)

complete

set this to TRUE if this is a complete theme, such as the one returned by theme_grey(). Complete themes behave differently when added to a ggplot object. Also, when setting complete = TRUE all elements will be set to inherit from blank elements.

validate

TRUE to run validate_element(), FALSE to bypass checks.

Theme inheritance

Theme elements inherit properties from other theme elements hierarchically. For example, axis.title.x.bottom inherits from axis.title.x which inherits from axis.title, which in turn inherits from text. All text elements inherit directly or indirectly from text; all lines inherit from line, and all rectangular objects inherit from rect. This means that you can modify the appearance of multiple elements by setting a single high-level component.

Learn more about setting these aesthetics in vignette("ggplot2-specs").
