在ggpairs中操纵轴标题(GGally)

标签: r scatter-plot ggally r-corrplot

我使用下面的代码生成以下图表。

# Setup
data(airquality)

# Device start
png(filename = "example.png", units = "cm", width = 20, height = 14, res = 300)

# Define chart
pairs.chrt <- ggpairs(airquality,
                      lower = list(continuous = "smooth"),
                      diag = list(continuous = "blank"),
                      upper = list(continuous = "blank")) +
  theme(legend.position = "none",
        panel.grid.major = element_blank(),
        axis.ticks = element_blank(),
        axis.title.x = element_text(angle = 180, vjust = 1, color = "black"),
        panel.border = element_rect(fill = NA))

# Device off and print
print(pairs.chrt)
dev.off()

ggpairs - First Example

我目前正在尝试修改轴标题的显示。特别是,我希望轴标题为:

  1. 放置在距离轴标签更远的位置
  2. 以某个角度放置
  3. 举个例子,我想获得与下图所示类似的轴标题(我只对轴标签感兴趣,而不是图表的其他部分): Example Label Placement 取自:Geovisualist

    我&#39;尝试调整我的语法将axis.title.x更改为不同的值,但它不会产生所需的结果。例如,使用angle = 45运行代码。

    axis.title.x = element_text(angle = 45, vjust = 1, color = "black"),
                panel.border = element_rect(fill = NA))
    

    返回相同的图表。例如,我可以通过更改axis.text.x来控制轴标签,但我无法找到如何在此图中控制轴标题的答案。任何帮助将不胜感激。

简短回答:似乎没有一种优雅或简单的方法,但这是一种解决方法。

我挖掘了ggpairs源代码(在 GGally package source available from CRAN中)以查看实际绘制变量标签的方式。 ggpairs.R中的相关功能是print.ggpairs。事实证明,变量标签不是绘图矩阵的每个单元格中ggplot个对象的一部分 - 即它们不是轴标题,这就是为什么它们不受使用theme(axis.title.x = element_text(angle = 45)的影响或类似的。

相反,它们似乎使用grid.text(在包'grid'中)作为文本注释绘制。 grid.text使用x, y, hjust, vjust, rot获取包括rot(其中gpar是旋转角度)的参数,以及字体大小,字体系列等等(请参阅?grid.text ),但看起来目前无法将这些参数的不同值传递给print.ggpairs - 它们被固定为默认值。

您可以通过将变量标签留空来开始处理,然后使用print.ggpairs代码的相关部分的修改随后添加定制的放置,旋转和样式。我提出了以下修改。 (顺便说一下,因为原始的GGally源代码是在GPL-3 license下发布的,所以此修改也是如此。)

customize.labels <- function(
  plotObj,
  varLabels = NULL, #vector of variable labels
  titleLabel = NULL, #string for title
  leftWidthProportion = 0.2, #if you changed these from default...
  bottomHeightProportion = 0.1, #when calling print(plotObj),...
  spacingProportion = 0.03, #then change them the same way here so labels will line up with plot matrix.
  left.opts = NULL, #see pattern in left.opts.default
  bottom.opts = NULL, #see pattern in bottom.opts.default
  title.opts = NULL) { #see pattern in title.opts.default

    varLabels <- colnames(plotObj$data)
    #default to using the column names of the data
  } else if (length(varLabels) != numCol){
    stop('Length of varLabels must be equal to the number of columns')
  }

  #set defaults for left margin label style

if(!is.null(titleLabel)){

  # viewport for Left Names

  pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(

              list(label=varLabels[i], 
                   vp = vplayout(as.numeric(i) * 2 - 1 ,1),
                   gp=do.call('gpar', 
                           left.opts[['gp']]))))

  # viewport for Bottom Names

  ## new for axis spacing
  pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(
    viewPortCount, viewPortCount,
    widths = viewPortWidths, heights = viewPortHeights)))

                           bottom.opts[['gp']]))))
  }

  popViewport() #layout
  popViewport() #spacing
}

以下是调用该函数的示例:

require('data.table')
require('GGally')
require('grid')
fake.data <- data.table(test.1=rnorm(50), #make some fake data for  demonstration
                        test.2=rnorm(50), 
                        test.3=rnorm(50),
                        test.4=rnorm(50))

g <- ggpairs(data=fake.data, 
             columnLabels=rep('', ncol(fake.data)))
#Set columnLabels to a vector of blank column labels
#so that original variable labels will be blank.
print(g)


customize.labels(plotObj=g,
                 titleLabel = 'Test plot', #string for title
                 left.opts = list(x=-0.5, #moves farther to the left, away from vertical axis
                                  y=0.5, #centered with respect to vertical axis
                                  just=c('center', 'center'),
                                  rot=90,
                                  gp=list(col='red',
                                          fontface='italic',
                                          fontsize=12)), 
                 bottom.opts = list(x=0.5,
                                    y=0,
                                    rot=45, #angle the text at 45 degrees
                                    just=c('center', 'top'),
                                    gp=list(col='red',
                                            fontface='bold',
                                            fontsize=10)), 
                 title.opts = list(gp=list(col='green',
                                           fontface='bold.italic'))
)

(这会使一些非常难看的标签 - 仅用于演示!)

我没有修改将标签放在左边和底部以外的地方 - 就像你的Geovisualist示例一样 - 但我认为你可以通过将参数更改为“左边的vplayout来实现customize.labels中的“和”底部“代码段”。 x中的ygrid.text坐标是相对于视口定义的,视口将显示区域划分为网格

pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(
        viewPortCount, viewPortCount,
        widths = viewPortWidths, heights = viewPortHeights
      )))

vplayout的调用指定网格的哪个单元格用于定位每个标签。

警告:不是一个完整的答案,但也许暗示了一种接近它的方法。您可以通过编辑grid对象来完成此操作。

# Plot in current window
# use left to add space at y axis and bottom for below xaxis
# see ?print.ggpairs
print(pairs.chrt, left = 1, bottom = 1)

# Get list of grobs in current window and extract the axis labels
# note if you add a title this will add another text grob, 
# so you will need to tweak this so not to extract it
g <- grid.ls(print=FALSE)
idx <- g$name[grep("text", g$name)]

# Rotate yaxis labels
# change the rot value to the angle you want
for(i in idx[1:6]) {
        grid.edit(gPath(i), rot=0, hjust=0.25, gp = gpar(col="red"))
 }

# Remove extra ones if you want
n <- ncol(airquality)
lapply(idx[c(1, 2*n)], grid.remove)

答案 2 :(得分:2)

我的回答无法解决对角线标签问题,但它会修复叠加层问题。

我目前正在编写的报告存在这个问题,其中轴标题总是在轴上,尤其是在ggpairs中。我结合使用fig.height / fig.width来调整out.height / out.width的组合。另外,这个问题并没有得到解决,但却是一致的。 fig.height / fig.width使标签远离轴但使它们太小而无法读取,out.height / out.width只是使图更大而问题不变。下面给出了我显示的结果:

out.height="400px", out.width="400px",fig.height=10,fig.width=10
