expand_limits: Expand the plot limits, using data

In ggplot2: Create Elegant Data Visualisations Using the Grammar of Graphics

Expand the plot limits, using data

Description

Sometimes you may want to ensure limits include a single value, for all panels or all plots. This function is a thin wrapper around geom_blank() that makes it easy to add such values.

Usage

expand_limits(...)

Arguments

...	named list of aesthetics specifying the value (or values) that should be included in each scale.

Examples

p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) + geom_point()
p + expand_limits(x = 0)
p + expand_limits(y = c(1, 9))
p + expand_limits(x = 0, y = 0)

ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  geom_point(aes(colour = cyl)) +
  expand_limits(colour = seq(2, 10, by = 2))
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  geom_point(aes(colour = factor(cyl))) +
  expand_limits(colour = factor(seq(2, 10, by = 2)))
