Legend charts

Source: R/tm_chart.R
tm_chart.Rd

Legend charts are small charts that are added to the map, usually in addition to legends.

Usage

tm_chart_histogram(
  breaks,
  plot.axis.x,
  plot.axis.y,
  extra.ggplot2,
  position,
  width,
  height,
  stack,
  z,
  group.frame,
  resize_as_group
)

tm_chart_bar(
  plot.axis.x,
  plot.axis.y,
  extra.ggplot2,
  position,
  width,
  height,
  stack,
  z,
  group.frame,
  resize_as_group
)

tm_chart_donut(position, width, height, stack, z, group.frame, resize_as_group)

tm_chart_violin(
  position,
  width,
  height,
  stack,
  z,
  group.frame,
  resize_as_group
)

tm_chart_box(position, width, height, stack, z, group.frame, resize_as_group)

tm_chart_none()

tm_chart_heatmap(
  position,
  width,
  height,
  stack,
  z,
  group.frame,
  resize_as_group
)

Arguments

breaks

The breaks of the bins (for histograms)

plot.axis.x, plot.axis.y

Should the x axis and y axis be plot?

extra.ggplot2

Extra ggplot2 code

position

Position of the chart. An object created with tm_pos_in() or tm_pos_out(). Or, as a shortcut, a vector of two values, specifying the x and y coordinates. The first is "left", "center" or "right" (or upper case, meaning tighter to the map frame), the second "top", "center" or "bottom". Numeric values are also supported, where 0, 0 means left bottom and 1, 1 right top. See also vignette about positioning.

width

in number of text lines (height of it)

height

in number of text lines

stack

stack with other map components, either "vertical" or "horizontal".

z

stacking order

group.frame

group.frame

resize_as_group

resize_as_group

Details

Note that these charts are different from charts drawn inside the map. Those are called glyphs (to be implemented).
