Scales in tmap are configured by the family of functions with prefix tm_scale
.
Such function should be used for the input of the .scale
arguments in the
layer functions (e.g. fill.scale
in tm_polygons()
).
The function tm_scale_asis()
is used to take data values as they are and use them as such for the visual variable.
tm_scale_asis(values.scale = NA, value.neutral = NA, value.na = NA, ...)
(generic scale argument) Scaling of the values. Only useful for size-related visual variables, such as size
of tm_symbols()
and lwd
of tm_lines()
.
(generic scale argument) Value that can be considered neutral. This is used for legends of other visual variables of the same map layer. E.g. when both fill
and size
are used for tm_symbols()
(using filled circles), the size legend items are filled with the value.neutral
color from the fill.scale
scale, and fill legend items are bubbles of size value.neutral
from the size.scale
scale.
(generic scale argument) Value used for missing values. See tmap option "value.na"
for defaults per visual variable.
