annotation_raster: Annotation: high-performance rectangular tiling

In SahaRahul/ggplot2: Create Elegant Data Visualisations Using the Grammar of Graphics

Description

This is a special version of geom_raster() optimised for static annotations that are the same in every panel. These annotations will not affect scales (i.e. the x and y axes will not grow to cover the range of the raster, and the raster must already have its own colours). This is useful for adding bitmap images.

Usage

annotation_raster(raster, xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, interpolate = FALSE)

Arguments

raster	raster object to display
xmin, xmax	x location (in data coordinates) giving horizontal location of raster
ymin, ymax	y location (in data coordinates) giving vertical location of raster
interpolate	If TRUE interpolate linearly, if FALSE (the default) don't interpolate.

Examples

# Generate data
rainbow <- matrix(hcl(seq(0, 360, length.out = 50 * 50), 80, 70), nrow = 50)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  geom_point() +
  annotation_raster(rainbow, 15, 20, 3, 4)
# To fill up whole plot
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  annotation_raster(rainbow, -Inf, Inf, -Inf, Inf) +
  geom_point()

rainbow2 <- matrix(hcl(seq(0, 360, length.out = 10), 80, 70), nrow = 1)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  annotation_raster(rainbow2, -Inf, Inf, -Inf, Inf) +
  geom_point()
rainbow2 <- matrix(hcl(seq(0, 360, length.out = 10), 80, 70), nrow = 1)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) +
  annotation_raster(rainbow2, -Inf, Inf, -Inf, Inf, interpolate = TRUE) +
  geom_point()
