- mapping
Set of aesthetic mappings created by aes()
. If specified and
inherit.aes = TRUE
(the default), it is combined with the default mapping
at the top level of the plot. You must supply mapping
if there is no plot
mapping.
- data
The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three
options:
If NULL
, the default, the data is inherited from the plot
data as specified in the call to ggplot()
.
A data.frame
, or other object, will override the plot
data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See
fortify()
for which variables will be created.
A function
will be called with a single argument,
the plot data. The return value must be a data.frame
, and
will be used as the layer data. A function
can be created
from a formula
(e.g. ~ head(.x, 10)
).
- stat
The statistical transformation to use on the data for this layer.
When using a geom_*()
function to construct a layer, the stat
argument can be used the override the default coupling between geoms and
stats. The stat
argument accepts the following:
A Stat
ggproto subclass, for example StatCount
.
A string naming the stat. To give the stat as a string, strip the
function name of the stat_
prefix. For example, to use stat_count()
,
give the stat as "count"
.
For more information and other ways to specify the stat, see the
layer stat documentation.
- position
A position adjustment to use on the data for this layer. This
can be used in various ways, including to prevent overplotting and
improving the display. The position
argument accepts the following:
The result of calling a position function, such as position_jitter()
.
This method allows for passing extra arguments to the position.
A string naming the position adjustment. To give the position as a
string, strip the function name of the position_
prefix. For example,
to use position_jitter()
, give the position as "jitter"
.
For more information and other ways to specify the position, see the
layer position documentation.
- isoline_text
Logical; whether to include text value marks along the
isolines.
- by, num
Intervals between elements or number of elements; specify only
one.
- label_dodge
Numeric; the orthogonal distance of the text from the axis
or isoline, as a proportion of the minimum of the plot width and height.
- ...
Additional arguments passed to ggplot2::layer()
.
- parse
If TRUE
, the labels will be parsed into expressions and
displayed as described in ?plotmath
.
- check_overlap
If TRUE
, text that overlaps previous text in the
same layer will not be plotted. check_overlap
happens at draw time and in
the order of the data. Therefore data should be arranged by the label
column before calling geom_text()
. Note that this argument is not
supported by geom_label()
.
- na.rm
Passed to ggplot2::layer()
.
- show.legend
logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
NA
, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped.
FALSE
never includes, and TRUE
always includes.
It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to
display.
- inherit.aes
If FALSE
, overrides the default aesthetics,
rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions
that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from
the default plot specification, e.g. borders()
.
