View source: R/gg.gap.R

Description

Easy to define segments in y-axis for 'ggplot2'.

Usage

1
2
gg.gap(plot, ylim, segments, tick_width, rel_heights, vjust = 0,
  margin = c(top = 1, right = 2, bottom = 1, left = 1), ...)

Arguments

plot

A 'ggplot2' plot.

ylim

The y-axis limits.

segments

The interval of a segment. If more than one intervals are given, please use list() to concatenate them.

tick_width

One or more numbers for each segmented y-axis.

rel_heights

Numerical vector of relative segmented y-axis and segments heights, default is 1 and 0.

vjust

Vertical justification. Default = 0 (baseline at y).

margin

Margins around the text.

...

Arguments will be handed to plot_grid() in 'cowplot'.

Value

A segmented picture.
