addPlot: Add a plot into a document object

Description

Add a plot into a document object

Usage

addPlot(doc, fun, pointsize = 12, vector.graphic = F,
    ...)

Arguments

doc

document object

fun

plot function

vector.graphic

logical scalar, if TRUE, vector graphics are produced instead of PNG images.

SVG will be produced for html objects and DrawingML instructions for docx and pptx objects.

DrawingML instructions offer advantage to provide editable graphics (forms and texts colors , texts contents, moving and resizing is disabled).

pointsize

the default pointsize of plotted text in pixels, default to 12.

...

further arguments passed to or from other methods..

Value

a document object

Details

Plot parameters are specified with the ... argument. However, the most convenient usage is to wrap the plot code into a function whose parameters will be specified as '...'.

If you want to add ggplot2 or lattice plot, use print function. See examples for more details.

vector.graphic

If document is a pptx or html document, vector graphics will always be displayed. Don't use vector graphics if document is a docx and MS Word version used to open the document is 2007.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
require( ggplot2 )
# Add a base plot
doc = addPlot( doc = doc, fun = plot
		, x = rnorm( 100 )
		, y = rnorm (100 )
		, main = "base plot main title"
	)

## Add a ggplot2
myplot = qplot(Sepal.Length, Petal.Length, data = iris, color = Species
	, size = Petal.Width, alpha = I(0.7))
doc = addPlot( doc = doc
		, fun = print
		, x = myplot #this argument MUST be named, print is expecting argument 'x'
	)

## Add a ggplot2 and another plot
doc = addPlot( doc = doc
		, fun = function(){
			print( qplot(Sepal.Length, Petal.Length, data = iris, color = Species
				, size = Petal.Width, alpha = I(0.7)) )
			plot(x = rnorm( 100 ), y = rnorm (100 ), main = "base plot main title")
		}
	)
# }
