Split plot into multiple subplots

Usage

split_plot(
  plot,
  by,
  ncol = NULL,
  nrow = NULL,
  byrow = NULL,
  widths = 30,
  heights = 25,
  guides = "collect",
  tag_level = NULL,
  design = NULL,
  unit = "mm"
)

Arguments

plot: A tidyplot generated with the function tidyplot().
by: Variable that should be used for splitting.
ncol, nrow: The number of columns and rows per page.
byrow: Analogous to byrow in matrix(). If FALSE the plots will be filled in in column-major order
widths, heights: The relative widths and heights of each column and row in the grid. Will get repeated to match the dimensions of the grid. The special value of NA/-1null will behave as 1null unless a fixed aspect plot is inserted in which case it will allow the dimension to expand or contract to match the aspect ratio of the content
guides: A string specifying how guides should be treated in the layout. 'collect' will collect guides below to the given nesting level, removing duplicates. 'keep' will stop collection at this level and let guides be placed alongside their plot. auto will allow guides to be collected if a upper level tries, but place them alongside the plot if not. If you modify default guide "position" with theme(legend.position=...) while also collecting guides you must apply that change to the overall patchwork (see example).
tag_level: A string ('keep' or 'new') to indicate how auto-tagging should behave. See plot_annotation().
design: Specification of the location of areas in the layout. Can either be specified as a text string or by concatenating calls to area() together. See the examples for further information on use.
unit: Unit of length. Defaults to "mm".

Value

A tidyplot object

Examples

# Before splitting
energy %>%
  dplyr::filter(year %in% c(2005, 2010, 2015, 2020)) %>%
  tidyplot(y = power, color = energy_source) %>%
  add_donut()


# Split by year
energy %>%
  dplyr::filter(year %in% c(2005, 2010, 2015, 2020)) %>%
  tidyplot(y = power, color = energy_source) %>%
  add_donut() %>%
  split_plot(by = year)
#> ✔ split_plot: split into 4 plots across 1 page


# Change dimensions of subplots
energy %>%
  dplyr::filter(year %in% c(2005, 2010, 2015, 2020)) %>%
  tidyplot(y = power, color = energy_source) %>%
  add_donut() %>%
  split_plot(by = year, widths = 15, heights = 15)
#> ✔ split_plot: split into 4 plots across 1 page


# Spread plots across multiple pages
energy %>%
  dplyr::filter(year %in% c(2005, 2010, 2015, 2020)) %>%
  tidyplot(y = power, color = energy_source) %>%
  add_donut() %>%
  split_plot(by = year, ncol = 2, nrow = 1)
