ggpixel: Plot a word on tiles

In dirmeier/ggpixel: Pixel art with ggplot

Description

The method takes a string and translates it into a tile plot using ggplot2. The resulting lpot looks like a heamtap with a string engraved.

Usage

ggpixel(x, noise.difference = 5, color.palette = c("viridis", "magma",
  "plasma", "inferno"), margin.left = 5, margin.right = 5,
  margin.top = 10, margin.bottom = 10, letter.spacing = 3,
  overlay = NULL, overlay.radius = 20, overlay.color = "white",
  na.value = "white", color = "grey30", aspect.ratio = 0.1)

Arguments

x	a character vector
noise.difference	numeric value that is added to the letter tiles in order to create a contrast. The higher the stronger the contrast.
color.palette	obviously the colorpalette. One of the viridis colors.
margin.left	how many pixels are inserted to the left from the string
margin.right	how many pixels are inserted to the right from the string
margin.top	how many pixels are inserted to the top from the string
margin.bottom	how many pixels are inserted to the bottom from the string
letter.spacing	how many pixels are used for spacing two characters
overlay	how many corners the overlay will have. Per default (NULL) no overlay is used
overlay.radius	how many pixels the radius of the overlay will be
overlay.color	the color of the overlay
na.value	color used for NAs
color	color used for the lines separating the tiles
aspect.ratio	ggplot2 aspect.ratio parameter. Modifies the dimensions of the tiles.

Value

returns a ggplot object
