hybrid: Hybrid refine

In ggrefine: Publication-Quality 'ggplot2' Themes

Hybrid refine

Description

Behaves like classic() when both axes are continuous or binned — leaving gridlines and axis elements untouched. When a discrete axis is present, behaves like modern(), removing gridlines and axis line/tick elements from the non-focused dimension and stripping ticks from the discrete axis.

Usage

hybrid(x_type = "continuous", y_type = "continuous", focus = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x_type	Character. Type of x-axis: "continuous", "binned", or "discrete".
y_type	Character. Type of y-axis: "continuous", "binned", or "discrete".
focus	Character. The primary axis of interest: "x" or "y". Gridlines and axis elements are removed from the opposite axis. If NULL (default), focus is inferred from x_type and y_type: discrete x with continuous/binned y gives "x", continuous/binned x with discrete y gives "y", otherwise "x".
...	Additional arguments (currently unused).

Value

A ggplot2 theme object

Examples

library(ggplot2)

set_theme(new = ggrefine::theme_grey())

p_continuous <- mpg |>
  ggplot(aes(x = displ, y = hwy)) +

p_discrete_x <- mpg |>
  ggplot(aes(x = drv, y = hwy)) +
  geom_jitter(shape = 21, colour = blends::multiply("#357BA2FF"))

p_discrete_y <- mpg |>
  ggplot(aes(x = hwy, y = drv)) +
