hide_axis(vis, scale)
vis |
A ggvis object. |
type |
The type of axis. Either x or y. |
scale |
The name of the scale backing the axis component. Defaults to the scale type - you will need to specify if you want (e.g.) a scale for a secondary y-axis. |
orient |
The orientation of the axis. One of top, bottom, left or right. The orientation can be used to further specialize the axis type (e.g., a y axis oriented for the right edge of the chart) - defaults to bottom for x axes, and left for y axes. |
title |
A title for the axis. By default, it uses the name of the field
in the first data set used by the scale. Use |
title_offset |
The offset (in pixels) from the axis at which to place the title. |
format |
The formatting pattern for axis labels. Vega uses D3's format pattern. |
ticks |
A desired number of ticks. The resulting number may be different so that values are "nice" (multiples of 2, 5, 10) and lie within the underlying scale's range. |
values |
Explicitly set the visible axis tick values. |
subdivide |
If provided, sets the number of minor ticks between major ticks (the value 9 results in decimal subdivision). |
tick_padding |
The padding, in pixels, between ticks and text labels. |
tick_size_major , tick_size_minor , tick_size_end |
The size, in pixels, of major, minor and end ticks. |
offset |
The offset, in pixels, by which to displace the axis from the edge of the enclosing group or data rectangle. |
layer |
A string indicating if the axis (and any gridlines) should be placed above or below the data marks. One of "front" or "back" (default). |
grid |
A flag indicating if gridlines should be created in addition to ticks. |
properties |
Optional mark property definitions for custom axis styling.
Should be an object created by |
More information about axes can be found in the "axes and legends" vignettes.
In ggplot2, axis (and legend) properties are part of the scales specification. In vega, they are separate, which allows the specification of multiple axes, and more flexible linkage between scales and axes.
