grid.pattern_gradient: Gradient patterned grobs

Description

grid.pattern_gradient() draws a gradient pattern onto the graphic device.

Usage

grid.pattern_gradient(
  x = c(0, 0, 1, 1),
  y = c(1, 0, 0, 1),
  id = 1L,
  ...,
  fill = gp$fill %||% "grey80",
  fill2 = "#4169E1",
  orientation = "vertical",
  alpha = gp$alpha %||% NA_real_,
  use_R4.1_gradients = getOption("ggpattern_use_R4.1_gradients",
    getOption("ggpattern_use_R4.1_features")),
  aspect_ratio = 1,
  key_scale_factor = 1,
  res = getOption("ggpattern_res", 72),
  default.units = "npc",
  name = NULL,
  gp = gpar(),
  draw = TRUE,
  vp = NULL
)

Value

A grid grob object invisibly. If draw is TRUE then also draws to the graphic device as a side effect.

Arguments

x

A numeric vector or unit object specifying x-locations of the pattern boundary.

y

A numeric vector or unit object specifying y-locations of the pattern boundary.

id

A numeric vector used to separate locations in x, y into multiple boundaries. All locations within the same id belong to the same boundary.

...

Currently ignored

fill

Fill colour

fill2

Second colour

orientation

vertical, horizontal, or radial

alpha

Alpha (between 0 and 1) or NA (default, preserves colors' alpha value).

use_R4.1_gradients

Whether to use the gradient feature introduced in R v4.1 or use a rasterGrob approximation. Note not all graphic devices support the grid gradient feature.

aspect_ratio

Override aspect ratio

key_scale_factor

Additional scale factor for legend

res

Assumed resolution (in pixels per graphic device inch) to use when creating array pattern.

default.units

A string indicating the default units to use if x or y are only given as numeric vectors.

name

A character identifier.

gp

An object of class "gpar", typically the output from a call to the function gpar. This is basically a list of graphical parameter settings.

draw

A logical value indicating whether graphics output should be produced.

vp

A Grid viewport object (or NULL).

Examples

Run this code
 if (require("grid") && require("magick") && capabilities("png")) {
   x_hex <- 0.5 + 0.5 * cos(seq(2 * pi / 4, by = 2 * pi / 6, length.out = 6))
   y_hex <- 0.5 + 0.5 * sin(seq(2 * pi / 4, by = 2 * pi / 6, length.out = 6))
   grid.pattern_gradient(x_hex, y_hex, fill = "green")
   grid.newpage()
   grid.pattern_gradient(x_hex, y_hex, fill = "green", orientation = "radial")
 }
