- mapping
Set of aesthetic mappings created by aes()
or
aes_()
. If specified and inherit.aes = TRUE
(the
default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the
plot. You must supply mapping
if there is no plot mapping.
- data
The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three
options:
If NULL
, the default, the data is inherited from the plot
data as specified in the call to ggplot()
.
A data.frame
, or other object, will override the plot
data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See
fortify()
for which variables will be created.
A function
will be called with a single argument,
the plot data. The return value must be a data.frame
, and
will be used as the layer data. A function
can be created
from a formula
(e.g. ~ head(.x, 10)
).
- stat
The statistical transformation to use on the data for this
layer, as a string.
- position
Position adjustment, either as a string, or the result of
a call to a position adjustment function. Cannot be jointy specified with
nudge_x
or nudge_y
.
- ...
Other arguments passed on to layer()
. These are
often aesthetics, used to set an aesthetic to a fixed value, like
colour = "red"
or size = 3
. They may also be parameters
to the paired geom/stat.
- parse
If TRUE
, the labels will be parsed into expressions and
displayed as described in ?plotmath
.
- nudge_x, nudge_y
Horizontal and vertical adjustment to nudge labels by.
Useful for offsetting text from points, particularly on discrete scales.
Cannot be jointly specified with position
.
- flip_upsidedown
A logical(1)
. If TRUE
(default), the
angle of text placed at angles between 90 and 270 degrees is flipped so
that it is more comfortable to read. If FALSE
, will take calculated
angles literally.
- check_overlap
If TRUE
, text that overlaps previous text in the
same layer will not be plotted. check_overlap
happens at draw time and in
the order of the data. Therefore data should be arranged by the label
column before calling geom_text()
. Note that this argument is not
supported by geom_label()
.
- na.rm
If FALSE
, the default, missing values are removed with
a warning. If TRUE
, missing values are silently removed.
- show.legend
logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
NA
, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped.
FALSE
never includes, and TRUE
always includes.
It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to
display.
- inherit.aes
If FALSE
, overrides the default aesthetics,
rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions
that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from
the default plot specification, e.g. borders()
.
