Usage

ggplot_build(plot)
layer_data(plot, i = 1L)
layer_scales(plot, i = 1L, j = 1L)
layer_grob(plot, i = 1L)

Arguments

plot
ggplot object

Details

layer_data, layer_grob, and layer_scales are helper functions that returns the data, grob, or scales associated with a given layer. These are useful for tests.
