multiplot: Multiple plot

In larmarange/JLutils: Collection of R functions

Multiple plot

Description

Renders multiple ggplot plots in one image

Usage

multiplot(
  ...,
  plotlist = NULL,
  cols = 1,
  layout = NULL,
  heights = NULL,
  widths = NULL
)

Arguments

...	ggplot objects (or grobs)
plotlist	a list of ggplot objects
cols	number of columns in layout
layout	a matrix specifying the layout. if present, cols is ignored
heights	a unit vector giving the relative height of each row (optional)
widths	a unit vector giving the relative width of each row (optional)

Note

If the layout is something like matrix(c(1,2,3,3), nrow=2, byrow=TRUE), then plot 1 will go in the upper left, 2 will go in the upper right, and 3 will go all the way across the bottom.

Examples

require(ggplot2)
p1 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(wt, mpg)) +
  geom_point()
p2 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl))) +
  geom_bar()
p3 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg)) +
  geom_violin()
p4 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg)) +
  geom_boxplot()

multiplot(p1, p2, p3, p4)
multiplot(p1, p2, p3, p4, cols = 2)
multiplot(p1, p2, p3, layout = matrix(c(1, 2, 3, 3), nrow = 2))
multiplot(p1, p2, p3, layout = matrix(c(1, 2, 3, 3), nrow = 2, byrow = TRUE))
multiplot(p1, p2, p3, layout = matrix(c(1, 2, 3, 3), nrow = 2, byrow = TRUE), heights = c(3, 1))
