resolveRasterSize: Utility function to resolve the size of a raster grob

Description

Determine the width and height of a raster grob when one or both are not given explicitly.

The result depends on both the aspect ratio of the raster image and the aspect ratio of the physical drawing context, so the result is only valid for the drawing context in which this function is called.

Usage

resolveRasterSize(x)

Arguments

x

A raster grob

Value

A raster grob, with explicit width and height.

Details

A raster grob can be specified with width and/or height of NULL, which means that the size at which the raster is drawn will be decided at drawing time.

Examples

# Square raster
rg <- rasterGrob(matrix(0))
# Fill the complete page (if page is square)
grid.newpage()
resolveRasterSize(rg)$height
grid.draw(rg)
# Forced to fit tall thin region
grid.newpage()
pushViewport(viewport(width=.1))
resolveRasterSize(rg)$height
grid.draw(rg)
