save_plot: Simple wrapper to ggsave

In flaneuse/llamar: Plotting Functions and Styles for Livelihoods Analysis Work

Description

Wrapper to ggsave to auto-save the annoying fiddly arguments I always forget. Works only w/ ggplot2 objects.

Usage

save_plot(filename, plot = last_plot(), saveBoth = FALSE, width = NA,
  height = NA, units = "in", scale = 1)

Arguments

filename	string containing file name
plot	which plot to save; by default, the last one created
saveBoth	If TRUE, save both a .pdf and .png
width	width of rendered plot
height	height of the rendered plot
units	units of the width/height of rendered plot (typically inches – 'in')
scale	scalar factor to enlarge/shrink the rendered plot

Examples

# create a figure
p = ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = cyl, y = mpg)) + geom_point()
p + stat_summary(geom = 'point', fun.y = 'mean', colour = 'red', size = 5, shape = 21, fill = NA)

# save figures
save_plot('last_plot.pdf', width = 5, height = 5)
save_plot('plot_p.pdf', plot = p, width = 5, height = 5)
