Apply common theme to ggplot2 chart

Applies common theming to a ggplot2 chart. It's based on ggplot2::theme_minimal().

Usage

ggplot2_theme(
  base_size = 11L,
  base_family = pal::pkg_config_val(key = "font_family_body", pkg = this_pkg),
  base_line_size = base_size/22L,
  base_rect_size = base_size/22L,
  axis.title.x = ggplot2::element_text(margin = ggplot2::margin(t = 20L, r = 0L, b = 0L,
    l = 0L), inherit.blank = TRUE),
  axis.title.y = ggplot2::element_text(margin = ggplot2::margin(t = 0L, r = 20L, b = 0L,
    l = 0L), inherit.blank = TRUE),
  axis.text = ggplot2::element_text(color = "#000", inherit.blank = TRUE),
  legend.box.margin = ggplot2::margin(),
  legend.box.spacing = ggplot2::element_blank(),
  legend.margin = ggplot2::margin(),
  legend.position = "bottom",
  legend.spacing = grid::unit(x = 0, units = "npc"),
  plot.margin = ggplot2::margin(),
  ...
)

Arguments

base_size

base font size, given in pts.

base_family

base font family

base_line_size

base size for line elements

base_rect_size

base size for rect elements

axis.title.x, axis.title.y

Labels of axes (ggplot2::element_text()). Specify all axes' labels (axis.title), labels by plane (using axis.title.x or axis.title.y), or individually for each axis (using axis.title.x.bottom, axis.title.x.top, axis.title.y.left, axis.title.y.right). axis.title.*.* inherits from axis.title.* which inherits from axis.title, which in turn inherits from text.

axis.text

Tick labels along axes (ggplot2::element_text()). Specify all axis tick labels (axis.text), tick labels by plane (using axis.text.x or axis.text.y), or individually for each axis (using axis.text.x.bottom, axis.text.x.top, axis.text.y.left, axis.text.y.right). axis.text.*.* inherits from axis.text.* which inherits from axis.text, which in turn inherits from text.

legend.box.margin

margins around the full legend area, as specified using margin()

legend.box.spacing

The spacing between the plotting area and the legend box (unit)

legend.margin

the margin around each legend (margin())

legend.position

the default position of legends ("none", "left", "right", "bottom", "top", "inside")

legend.spacing

Spacing between legends (unit). legend.spacing.x & legend.spacing.y inherit from legend.spacing or can be specified separately.

plot.margin

margin around entire plot (unit with the sizes of the top, right, bottom, and left margins)

...

Further arguments passed on to ggplot2::theme().

Value

An object of class theme.
