insert_xaxis_grob {cowplot}

R Documentation

Insert an axis-like grob on either side of a plot panel in a ggplot2 plot.

Description

The function insert_xaxis_grob() inserts a grob at the top or bottom of the plot panel in a ggplot2 plot.

The function insert_yaxis_grob() inserts a grob to the right or left of the plot panel in a ggplot2 plot.

Usage

insert_xaxis_grob(plot, grob, height = grid::unit(0.2, "null"),
  position = c("top", "bottom"))

insert_yaxis_grob(plot, grob, width = grid::unit(0.2, "null"),
  position = c("right", "left"))

Arguments

`plot`	The plot into which the grob will be inserted.
`grob`	The grob to insert. This will generally have been obtained via `get_panel()` from a ggplot2 object, in particular one generated with `axis_canvas()`. If a ggplot2 plot is provided instead of a grob, then `get_panel()` is called to extract the panel grob.
`height`	The height of the grob, in grid units. Used by `insert_xaxis_grob()`.
`position`	The position of the grob. Can be `"right"` or `"left"` for `insert_yaxis_grob()` and `"top"` or `"botton"` for `insert_xaxis_grob()`.
`width`	The width of the grob, in grid units. Used by `insert_yaxis_grob()`.

Details

For usage examples, see axis_canvas().
