Plot a polygon within a plotgardener layout

Description

Plot a polygon within a plotgardener layout

Usage

plotPolygon(
    x,
    y,
    default.units = "inches",
    linecolor = "black",
    lwd = 1,
    lty = 1,
    fill = NA,
    alpha = 1,
    id = NULL,
    id.lengths = NULL,
    params = NULL,
    ...
)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector or unit object specifying polygon vertex x-locations.

y

A numeric vector, unit object, or a character vector of values containing a "b" combined with a numeric value specifying polygon vertex y-locations. The character vector will place polygon vertex y-locations relative to the bottom of the most recently plotted plot according to the units of the plotgardener page.

default.units

A string indicating the default units to use if x or y are only given as numeric vectors. Default value is default.units = "inches".

linecolor

A character value specifying polygon line color. Default value is linecolor = "black".

lwd

A numeric specifying polygon line width. Default value is lwd = 1.

lty

A numeric specifying polygon line type. Default value is lty = 1.

fill

A character value specifying polygon fill color. Default value is fill = NA.

alpha

Numeric value specifying color transparency. Default value is alpha = 1.

id

A numeric vector used to separate locations in x and y into multiple polygons. All locations with the same id belong to the same polygon.

id.lengths

A numeric vector used to separate locations in x and y into multiple polygons. Specifies consecutive blocks of locations which make up separate polygons.

params

An optional pgParams object containing relevant function parameters.

...

Additional grid graphical parameters. See gpar.

Value

Returns a polygon object containing relevant placement and grob information.

## Create a page
pageCreate(width = 7.5, height = 6, default.units = "inches")

## Plot complex polygons one at a time
plotPolygon(
    x = c(2.6, 4.65, 4.75, 6.05, 1.4, 1.3),
    y = c(2.5, 3.1, 3.5, 4, 3.15, 2.8),
    fill = "#4a168e", linecolor = NA
)

plotPolygon(
    x = c(4.65, 4.75, 6.05, 5.05, 4.4),
    y = c(3.1, 3.5, 4, 1.45, 1.2),
    fill = "#9d28b0", linecolor = NA
)

## Plot multiple triangles with different id's and colors
plotPolygon(
    x = c(
        0.45, 6.05, 3, 3, 6.05, 5.25, 4.4, 5.05, 4.95,
        1.3, 2.6, 1, 4.4, 4.95, 5, 4.95, 5, 6.25
    ),
    y = c(

        2.8, 2.5, 2.1, 1.2, 1.1, 0.45, 1.1, 0.45, 1.1
    ),
    id = c(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6),
    fill = c(
        "#ce93d9", "#bb6ac9", "#4a168e",
        "#7b1fa0", "#bb6ac9", "#ce93d9"
