gg_rescale: Rescale a ggplot2 plot so that axes follow a given ratio

In briandconnelly/ggplot2bdc: Themes and other helper functions for working with ggplot2 plots

Description

gg_rescale rescales the given ggplot2 so that the axes follow the given ratio (horizontally). If a plot is not specified, the last plot displayed is used.

gg_rescale_golden rescales a ggplot2 plot so that axes follow golden ratio

gg_rescale_square rescales a ggplot2 plot so that its axes are square

Usage

gg_rescale(plot = last_plot(), ratio)

gg_rescale_golden(plot = last_plot(), orient = "h")

gg_rescale_square(plot = last_plot())

Arguments

plot	A ggplot2 plot object. By default, the last plot displayed is used.
ratio	The aspect ratio to use for the axes. This is independent of units used in the plot, so the size of the X axis will be ratio times the total size of the Y axis.
orient	Whether the golden ratio should be horizontal (h; default) or vertical (v)

Value

A modified ggplot2 plot

Examples

p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = cyl, y = mpg)) +
    geom_point(shape = 1)
gg_rescale(ratio = 1.67)
