Usage

create_base_figure(
  default = NULL,
  w = 6,
  h = 6,
  orientation = "landscape",
  margin = rep(0.25, 4),
  guidelines = TRUE,
  guide_major = seq(0.1, 0.9, 0.1),
  guide_minor = seq(0.05, 0.95, 0.1),
  guide_adjust = 1.25,
  new = FALSE
)

Arguments

default	Pre-packaged figure sizes, including... 'US letter' or '8.5 x 11' (inches); '3.54 x 3.54' (inches); '5 x 5' (inches); '7.25 x 5' (inches).
w	Width (in inches) for the x-axis.

orientation	For default specifications, indicates whether figures should be in landscape or portrait style.
margin	A vector with the margins (in inches) for the bottom, left, top, and right, respectively.
guidelines	Logical; if TRUE, includes guidelines when generating the figure.
guide_major	Vector giving the major guideline positions (values must be between 0 and 1).
guide_minor	Vector giving the minor guideline positions (values must be between 0 and 1). If NULL, no minor guidelines are included.
guide_adjust	An adjustment controlling the position on the axes for the guideline numbers.
new	Logical; if TRUE a new plotting window is generated.
