Arguments

`mapping`	Set of aesthetic mappings created by `aes()`. If specified and `inherit.aes = TRUE` (the default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the plot. You must supply `mapping` if there is no plot mapping.
`data`	The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options: If `NULL`, the default, the data is inherited from the plot data as specified in the call to `ggplot()`. A `data.frame`, or other object, will override the plot data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See `fortify()` for which variables will be created. A `function` will be called with a single argument, the plot data. The return value must be a `data.frame`, and will be used as the layer data. A `function` can be created from a `formula` (e.g. `~ head(.x, 10)`).
`stat`	The statistical transformation to use on the data for this layer. When using a `⁠geom_*()⁠` function to construct a layer, the `stat` argument can be used the override the default coupling between geoms and stats. The `stat` argument accepts the following: A `Stat` ggproto subclass, for example `StatCount`. A string naming the stat. To give the stat as a string, strip the function name of the `stat_` prefix. For example, to use `stat_count()`, give the stat as `"count"`. For more information and other ways to specify the stat, see the layer stat documentation.
`position`	A position adjustment to use on the data for this layer. This can be used in various ways, including to prevent overplotting and improving the display. The `position` argument accepts the following: The result of calling a position function, such as `position_jitter()`. This method allows for passing extra arguments to the position. A string naming the position adjustment. To give the position as a string, strip the function name of the `position_` prefix. For example, to use `position_jitter()`, give the position as `"jitter"`. For more information and other ways to specify the position, see the layer position documentation.
`axis_labels`, `axis_ticks`, `axis_text`	Logical; whether to include labels, tick marks, and text value marks along the axes.
`by`, `num`	Intervals between elements or number of elements; specify only one.
`snap_rule`	Logical; whether to snap rule segments to grid values.
`tick_length`	Numeric; the length of the tick marks, as a proportion of the minimum of the plot width and height.
`text_dodge`	Numeric; the orthogonal distance of tick mark text from the axis, as a proportion of the minimum of the plot width and height.
`label_dodge`	Numeric; the orthogonal distance of the axis label from the axis, as a proportion of the minimum of the plot width and height.
`...`	Additional arguments passed to `ggplot2::layer()`.
`axis.colour`, `axis.color`, `axis.alpha`	Default aesthetics for axes. Set to NULL to inherit from the data's aesthetics.
`label.angle`, `label.colour`, `label.color`, `label.alpha`	Default aesthetics for labels. Set to NULL to inherit from the data's aesthetics.
`tick.linewidth`, `tick.colour`, `tick.color`, `tick.alpha`	Default aesthetics for tick marks. Set to NULL to inherit from the data's aesthetics.
`text.size`, `text.angle`, `text.hjust`, `text.vjust`, `text.family`, `text.fontface`, `text.colour`, `text.color`, `text.alpha`	Default aesthetics for tick mark labels. Set to NULL to inherit from the data's aesthetics.
`parse`	If `TRUE`, the labels will be parsed into expressions and displayed as described in `?plotmath`.
`check_overlap`	If `TRUE`, text that overlaps previous text in the same layer will not be plotted. `check_overlap` happens at draw time and in the order of the data. Therefore data should be arranged by the label column before calling `geom_text()`. Note that this argument is not supported by `geom_label()`.
`na.rm`	Passed to `ggplot2::layer()`.
`show.legend`	logical. Should this layer be included in the legends? `NA`, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. `FALSE` never includes, and `TRUE` always includes. It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to display.
`inherit.aes`	If `FALSE`, overrides the default aesthetics, rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from the default plot specification, e.g. `borders()`.

Details

As implemented here, a rule is just an axis that has a fixed range, usually the limits of the data. geom_rule() defaults to stat = "identity" to avoid the problem of failing to pass referent data to the referential stat_rule(). Therefore, the user must provide the lower and upper aesthetics, which are used as euclidean lengths in the plotting window. Meanwhile, stat_rule() defaults to geom = "rule"; see stat_rule() for details on this pairing.

Value

A ggproto layer.

Biplot layers

ggbiplot() uses ggplot2::fortify() internally to produce a single data frame with a .matrix column distinguishing the subjects ("rows") and variables ("cols"). The stat layers stat_rows() and stat_cols() simply filter the data frame to one of these two.

The geom layers ⁠geom_rows_*()⁠ and ⁠geom_cols_*()⁠ call the corresponding stat in order to render plot elements for the corresponding factor matrix. ⁠geom_dims_*()⁠ selects a default matrix based on common practice, e.g. points for rows and arrows for columns.

Aesthetics

geom_rule() understands the following aesthetics (required aesthetics are in bold):

x
y
lower
upper
yintercept or xintercept or xend and yend
linetype
linewidth
size
hjust
vjust
colour
alpha
label
family
fontface
center, scale
group

  )
