grid.symbols: Draw a Picture Object as Data Symbols
In sjp/grImport2: Importing Vector Graphics

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also

These functions take a "Picture" object and either draw the picture at several locations or create a grid graphical object representing the picture (drawn at several locations).

grid.symbols(...)

`picture`	A `"Picture"` object.
`x`	A numeric vector or unit object specifying x-locations.
`y`	A numeric vector or unit object specifying y-locations.
`size`	A numeric vector or unit object specifying symbol sizes.
`default.units`	A string indicating the default units to use if `x`, `y`, `width`, or `height` are only given as numeric vectors.
`gpFUN`	A function that takes a grid `gpar` object and returns a (possibly modified) `gpar` object.
`ext`	A character vector. Selects from one of three possible extensions for drawing imported pictures. `"none"` means that no clipping will be applied to the imported picture. `"clipbbox"` means that clipping will be applied, but only to the bounding boxes of any imported clipping paths. `"gridSVG"` means that gridSVG will be used when drawing the `"Picture"` object, which enables the use of complex clipping paths, gradients, patterns, etc. to be rendered from an imported picture.
`prefix`	A character string. A prefix to add to referenced gridSVG content (e.g. pattern fills). Only used when `gridSVG` is `TRUE`. The reference label must be a unique reference label, otherwise an error will result. This can be checked by calling gridSVG's `listSVGDefinitions()`. When this parameter is `NULL`, a prefix will automatically be generated but this is not guaranteed to be unique.
`...`	For `grid.symbols()`, arguments to be passed onto `symbolsGrob()`. For `symbolsGrob()`, additional parameters to be passed onto the `picture`'s `grobify` method.
`name`	A character identifier.
