theme_nhsbsa_gg: Theme an NHSBSA ggplot

In nhsbsa-data-analytics/nhsbsaR: NHSBSA R package

Theme an NHSBSA ggplot

Description

Theme an NHSBSA ggplot. We would like to take several steps to brand a standard ggplot to an NHSBSA looking chart. These include:

• Make the font of any text "sans" or another family parameter.

• Colour any text NHS Black

• Colour background NHS White

• Make the title and axis titles bold

• Left align the subtitle

• Move the legend to the top with no background or key background

• Remove axis titles (but set them bold incase they are added later). Note that to add axis titles you must first add the element back in like this: ggplot2::theme(axis.title.x = ggplot2::element_text()) + ggplot2::xlab()

• Colour axis lines NHS Mid Grey

• Remove axis ticks

• Remove all gridlines

• Colour the background of the plot white

• Colour background NHS White

• For facets, bold and left align the titles and colour the panel background
