cowplot (version 0.7.0)

draw_text: Draw text.

Description

This is a convenience function to plot multiple pieces of text at the same time. It cannot handle mathematical expressions, though. For those, use draw_label.

Usage

draw_text(text, x = 0.5, y = 0.5, size = 14, ...)

Arguments

text

Character or expression vector specifying the text to be written.

x

Vector of x coordinates.

y

Vector of y coordinates.

size

Font size of the text to be drawn.

...

Style parameters, such as colour, alpha, angle, size, etc.

Details

Note that font sizes get scaled by a factor of 2.85, so sizes given here agree with font sizes used in the theme. This is different from geom_text in ggplot2.

By default, the x and y coordinates specify the center of the text box. Set hjust = 0, vjust = 0 to specify the lower left corner, and other values of hjust and vjust for any other relative location you want to specify.
