Make Pretty ggplot x- or y-Axis Log 10 Scale

Description

used to convert the x and y-axis of a ggplot to a log 10 scale that is more visually satisfying than the ggplot default.

Usage

gg_axis(
  fo,
  yaxis_scale = TRUE,
  xaxis_scale = TRUE,
  ylim_min = NULL,
  ylim_max = NULL,
  xlim_min = NULL,
  xlim_max = NULL,
  x_tick_label = TRUE,
  y_tick_label = TRUE
)

Arguments

fo

ggplot figure object

yaxis_scale

TRUE indicates that the y-axis should be log10 scaled

xaxis_scale

TRUE indicates that the x-axis should be log10 scaled

ylim_min

set to a number to define the lower bound of the y-axis

ylim_max

set to a number to define the upper bound of the y-axis

xlim_min

set to a number to define the lower bound of the x-axis

xlim_max

set to a number to define the upper bound of the x-axis

x_tick_label

TRUE to show x tick labels, FALSE to hide the x tick labels

y_tick_label

TRUE to show y tick labels, FALSE to hide the y tick labels

Value

ggplot object with formatted axis

Examples

library("ggplot2")
df = data.frame(x = seq(0.01,10,.01),
               y = seq(0.01,10,.01)^2)
p       = ggplot(df, aes(x=x, y=y)) + geom_line()
# pretty up the axes
p       = prepare_figure(fo=p, purpose="print")
# pretty log10 y-axis 
p_logy  = gg_log10_yaxis(fo=p)
# pretty log10 x-axis 
p_logx  = gg_log10_xaxis(fo=p)
# pretty log10 yx-axis 
p_logxy = gg_axis(fo=p)
