theme_cowplot: Create the default cowplot theme

In cowplot: Streamlined Plot Theme and Plot Annotations for 'ggplot2'

Description

The default cowplot theme, with a simple half-open frame and no grid. This theme used to be set by default after loading the cowplot package, but this is no longer the case.

Usage

  font_size = 14,
  font_family = "",
  line_size = 0.5,
  rel_small = 12/14,
  rel_tiny = 11/14,
  rel_large = 16/14
)

theme_half_open(
  font_size = 14,
  font_family = "",
  line_size = 0.5,
  rel_small = 12/14,
  rel_tiny = 11/14,
  rel_large = 16/14
)

font_size	Overall font size.
