Process coordinate adjustment presets

Description

Process coordinate adjustment presets

Usage

coordPresets(
  preset = "default",
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  adjPreset = "default",
  adjX = 0.5,
  adjY = 0.5,
  adjOffsetX = 0,
  adjOffsetY = 0,
  preset_type = c("plot"),
  verbose = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

preset

character vector of coordinate positions, or "default" to use the ⁠x,y⁠ coordinates.

x, y

numeric vectors indicating the default coordinates ⁠x,y⁠.

adjPreset

character vector of text label positions, or "default" to use preset, or when preset="default" the ⁠adjX,adjY⁠ values are used.

adjX, adjY

numeric vectors indicating default text adjustment values, as described for adj in graphics::text().

adjOffsetX, adjOffsetY

numeric vector used to apply an offset value to the ⁠adjX,adjY⁠ values, where positive values would place a label farther away from center. Note these units are relative to the text label size, when used with graphics::text(), larger labels will be adjusted more than smaller labels.

preset_type

character string indicating the reference point for the preset boundaries:

  • "plot" uses the plot border.

  • "margin" uses the margin border. Note that the margin used is the inner margin around the plot figure, not the outer margin which may be applied around multi-panel plot figures.

verbose

logical indicating whether to print verbose output.

...

additional arguments are ignored.

Details

This function is intended to be a convenient way to define coordinates using preset terms like "topleft", "bottom", "center".

Similarly, it is intended to help define corresponding text adjustments, using adj compatible with graphics::text(), using preset terms like "bottomright", "center".

When preset is "default", the original ⁠x,y⁠ coordinates are used. Otherwise the ⁠x,y⁠ coordinates are defined using the plot region coordinates, where "left" uses par("usr")[1], and "top" uses par("usr")[4].

When adjPreset is "default" it will use the preset to define a reciprocal text placement. For example when preset="topright" the text placement will be equivalent to adjPreset="bottomleft". The adjPreset terms "top", "bottom", "right", "left", and "center" refer to the text label placement relative to ⁠x,y⁠ coordinate.

If both preset="default" and adjPreset="default" the original ⁠adjX,adjY⁠ values are returned.

The function is vectorized, and uses the longest input argument, so one can supply a vector of preset and it will return coordinates and adjustments of length equal to the input preset vector. The preset value takes priority over the supplied ⁠x,y⁠ coordinates.

Value

data.frame after adjustment, where the number of rows is determined by the longest input argument, with colnames:

  • x

  • y

  • adjX

  • adjY

  • preset

  • adjPreset

Examples

# determine coordinates
presetV <- c("top",
   "bottom",
   "left",
   "right",
   "topleft");
cp1 <- coordPresets(preset=presetV);
cp1;

# make sure to prepare the plot region first
jamba::nullPlot(plotAreaTitle="");
points(cp1$x, cp1$y, pch=20, cex=2, col="red");

# unfortunately graphics::text() does not have vectorized adj
# so it must iterate each row
title(main="text() is not vectorized, text is adjacent to edges")
for (i in seq_along(presetV)) {
   text(cp1$x[i], cp1$y[i],
      labels=presetV[i],
      adj=c(cp1$adjX[i], cp1$adjY[i]));
}

# drawLabels() will be vectorized for unique adj subsets
# and adds a small buffer around text
jamba::nullPlot(plotAreaTitle="");
title(main="drawLabels() is vectorized, includes small buffer")
drawLabels(txt=presetV,
   preset=presetV)

jamba::nullPlot(plotAreaTitle="");
title(main="drawLabels() can place labels outside plot edges")
drawLabels(txt=presetV,
   preset=presetV,
   adjPreset=presetV)

# drawLabels() is vectorized for example
jamba::nullPlot(plotAreaTitle="");
