Compose guides as stack

Description

This guide can stack other guides.

Usage

compose_stack(
  ...,
  args = list(),
  key = NULL,
  title = waiver(),
  side.titles = waiver(),
  angle = waiver(),
  theme = NULL,
  order = 0,
  drop = NULL,
  position = waiver(),
  available_aes = NULL
)

Arguments

...	Guides to stack in composition. Each guide can be specified as one of the following: A ⁠<Guide>⁠ class object. A ⁠<function>⁠ that returns a ⁠<Guide>⁠ class object. A ⁠<character[1]>⁠ naming such a function, without the guide_ or primitive_ prefix.
args	A ⁠<list>⁠ of arguments to pass to guides that are given either as a function or as a string.
key	A standard key specification. The key is shared among all guides that have NULL keys themselves. See more information in the linked topic.
title	A ⁠<character[1]>⁠ or ⁠<expression[1]>⁠ indicating the title of the guide. If NULL, the title is not shown. The default, waiver(), takes the name of the scale object or the name specified in labs() as the title.
side.titles	A ⁠<character>⁠ giving labels for titles displayed on the side of the stack. Set to NULL to display no side titles. If waiver(), an attempt is made to extract the titles from the guides and use these as side titles.
angle	A specification for the text angle. Compared to setting the angle argument in element_text(), this argument uses some heuristics to automatically pick the hjust and vjust that you probably want. Can be one of the following: NULL to take angles and justification settings directly from the theme. waiver() to allow reasonable defaults in special cases. A ⁠<numeric[1]>⁠ between -360 and 360 for the text angle in degrees.
theme	A <theme> object to style the guide individually or differently from the plot's theme settings. The theme argument in the guide overrides and is combined with the plot's theme.
order	A positive ⁠<integer[1]>⁠ that specifies the order of this guide among multiple guides. This controls in which order guides are merged if there are multiple guides for the same position. If 0 (default), the order is determined by a hashing indicative settings of a guide.
drop	An ⁠<integer>⁠ giving the indices of guides that should be dropped when a facet requests no labels to be drawn at axes in between panels. The default, NULL, will drop every guide except the first.
position	A ⁠<character[1]>⁠ giving the location of the guide. Can be one of "top", "bottom", "left" or "right".
available_aes	A ⁠<character>⁠ giving aesthetics that must match the the guides.

Value

A ⁠<ComposeStack>⁠ guide object.

Examples

ggplot() +
  geom_function(fun = dnorm, xlim = c(-3, 3)) +
  guides(x = compose_stack(
    "axis", "axis",
    side.titles = c("first", "second")
  )) +
  # Add margin to make room for side titles
  theme(plot.margin = margin(5.5, 5.5, 5.5, 11))
