Plot ggplot with extra table grob

Description

Plot ggplot object, legend, and at least one other information table

Usage

plotSpecial(
  grobs_ls,
  loc_lsv = list(vpPlot = c(width = 0.65, height = 1, x = 0.3, y = 0.5), vpLeg = c(width
    = 0.25, height = 0.7, x = 0.7, y = 0.88), vpTab = c(width = 0.45, height = 0.3, x =
    0.7, y = 0.6)),
  file_v = NA,
  width_v = 7,
  height_v = 7
)

Arguments

`grobs_ls`	list of grobs to plot (must be same length as loc_lsv).
`loc_lsv`	list of viewport location arguments. Each list element must have 4 elements in order of width, height, x, y. Must be same length as grobs_ls. vpPlot, vpLeg, and vpTab are required.
`file_v`	file to output plot to. Must be pdf.

Details

Works differently depending on if main plot is a ggplot2 object or a pheatmap (or other) object. For ggplot2 object: Minimum length is 3 objects (plot, legend, table). Table should be created using myTableGrob or similar. Legend should be made using g_legend. Defaults work just fine. For pheatmap object, the pheatmap must be saved to an object by using myObj <- grid::grid.grabExpr(pheatmap(data_dt, options)). myObj is then the first grob in grobs_ls. As of right now, I can't extract the legend from pheatmap, so grobs_ls will actually only be a length of 2 as a minimum (heatmap and table). The loc_lsv can still work with the default 3 (the vpLeg will be removed), but will also work if just two are specified. When ggplot2 is used the loc_lsv names aren't important, but when pheatmap is used, the loc_lsv names must be vpPlot and vpTab.
