Question

我正在尝试对ggplot中的几何图形应用剪切蒙版，以掩盖部分数据，但保持轴，网格，其他几何图形和图例可见。我不想创建一个特定的图，因此，我不希望使用掩盖该图某些部分的多边形的变通方法。

这是我想模仿的那种设计（面具，不一定是主题，我现在要怎么做）

有人认为我可以过滤定义遮罩的多边形中不包含的数据。但是，尽管它适用于点，并且可以适用于多边形/线状对象，但适用于栅格（边界不会完全遵循非垂直或非水平线）。所以我尝试了以下方法：

library(ggplot2)
library(gridSVG)
library(grImport)

# Create a plot
p <- ggplot(diamonds[1:300,], aes(carat, price)) + geom_point(aes(colour = cut))

# And a clipping mask
pg <- polygonGrob(c(.7, 0, 0, 1, 1),
              c(0, .7, 1, 1, 0))
cp <- clipPath(pg)

我能够使用软件包gridSVG来定义clipping mask，但是即使使用以下方法提取grob（参见资源here），我也很难将其应用于ggplot对象ggplotGrob()。我无法将剪切蒙版应用到grob：

g <-  ggplotGrob(p) # store the plot as a grob

registerClipPath("mask", cp)
g_clipped <- clipPath(g)

gridsvg(name = "test_c2.svg")
grid.draw(clipPathGrob(g_clipped, cp)$grob)
dev.off()

我的直觉是应该绘制g_clipped，但是我不能grid.draw()，因为它是一个clipPath对象。还有grid.draw() 此处写的线显示未屏蔽的情节。我想我不太了解clipPath对象的功能。

函数grobify()听起来可能对没有gridSVG的替代方法有所帮助，请参阅details here，但我不了解非常简单的文档。

由于我什至无法将剪切蒙版应用于整个情节，因此我的目标远非如此。

如果您可以帮助我了解如何从gridSVG开始应用剪切蒙版，或者有替代解决方案将剪切蒙版应用于特定的几何图形，请告诉我。

由于您是从ggplot对象开始的，因此将蒙版本身创建为geom图层可能会更简单，而不是将所有内容都转换为grob并在其中的网格系统中工作。

可以在此处使用ggpolypath软件包中的geom_polypath()函数。与ggplot2中的标准geom_polygon不同，它能够处理带孔的多边形（请参见vignette）：

# sample data frame for clipping. The first four x & y coordinates are for the outer ends;
# the next four are for the hole in the polygon.
clipping.df <- data.frame(x = c(0, 1.5, 1.5, 0, 0.2, 1, 0.7, 0.3),
                          y = c(0, 0, 3000, 3000, 250, 2000, 2800, 1500),
                          hole = rep(c(FALSE, TRUE), each = 4),
                          group = rep(c("1", "2"), each = 4))

library(ggpolypath)
p +
  geom_polypath(data = clipping.df,
                aes(x = x, y = y, group = group),
                colour = NA, fill = "black", alpha = 0.5,
                inherit.aes = FALSE) +
  scale_x_continuous(expand = c(0, 0)) + # don't show edges beyond the extent
  scale_y_continuous(expand = c(0, 0))   # of the polygon

以下是网格解决方案，但是非常变通。它显示了如何将非矩形裁剪区域应用于ggplot，以便裁剪绘图中的一组点。您的尝试并没有错。需要注意的几点：

您需要grid.force() ggplotGrob对象，以便grid可以看到这些grob。
请勿将ggplot grob定义为剪切路径-剪切路径为多边形。
将剪切路径应用于ggplot的绘图面板内的点grob。这意味着绘图面板中的其他对象，面板背景和网格线不会被剪切。仅数据点被裁剪。

我在绘图中添加了一条蓝线，以表明该线也不需要剪切；但可以根据需要裁剪。

也有注释的代码行，当未注释时，将绘制剪切区域，并将网格线和点移动到前面（即，较深的灰色剪切区域的前面）。

library(ggplot2)
library(gridSVG)
library(grid)

# Open the graphics device
gridsvg(name = "test.svg")

# Create a plot
p <- ggplot(diamonds[1:300, ], aes(carat, price)) + 
       geom_point(aes(colour = cut)) +
       geom_line(data = data.frame(x = c(.3, .9), y = c(500, 2500)), aes(x,y), col = "skyblue", size = 2)
g <- ggplotGrob(p) # Store the plot as a grob


g = grid.force(g)  # So that grid sees all grobs
grid.draw(g)       # Draw the plot

# Define the clipping path
pg <- polygonGrob(c(.7, 0, 0, 1, 1),
                  c(0, .7, 1, 1, 0))
# The clipping path can be nearly any shape you desire. 
# Try this for a circular region
# pg = circleGrob(x = .5, y = .6, r = .5)
cp <- clipPath(pg)

# Add the clipping path to the points grob.
# That is, only the points inside the polygon will be visible,
# but the background and grid lines will not be clipped. 
# Nor will the blue line be clipped.
# grid.ls(g)     # names of the grobs
seekViewport(grep("panel.[0-9]", grid.ls(g)$name, value = TRUE))
grid.clipPath("points", cp, grep = TRUE)   

# To clip the blue line, uncomment the next line
# grid.clipPath("GRID.polyline", cp, grep = TRUE)       

# To show the clipping region,    
# uncomment the next two lines.
# showcp = editGrob(pg, gp = gpar(fill = rgb(0, 0, 0, 0.05), col = "transparent"))
# grid.draw(showcp)

# And to move the grid lines, remaining data points, and blue line in front of the clipping region,
# uncomment the next five lines
# panel = grid.get("panel", grep = TRUE)   # Get the panel, and remove the background grob
# panel = removeGrob(panel, "background", grep = TRUE)

# grid.remove("points", grep = TRUE)     # Remove points and grid lines from the rendered plot
# grid.remove("line", grep = TRUE, global = TRUE)

# grid.draw(panel)     # Draw the edited panel - on top of the clipping region 


# Turn off the graphics device
dev.off()

# Find text.svg in your working directory

编辑使用绘制数据点的坐标系定义裁剪区域。

library(ggplot2)
library(gridSVG)
library(grid)

# Open the graphics device
gridsvg(name = "test.svg")

# Create a plot
p <- ggplot(diamonds[1:300, ], aes(carat, price)) + 
       geom_point(aes(colour = cut)) +
       geom_line(data = data.frame(x = c(.3, .9), y = c(500, 2500)), aes(x,y), col = "skyblue", size = 2)
g <- ggplotGrob(p) # Store the plot as a grob


g = grid.force(g)  # So that grid sees all grobs
grid.draw(g)       # Draw the plot

# Get axis limits (including any expansion)
axis.limits = summarise_layout(ggplot_build(p))[1, c('xmin', 'xmax', 'ymin', 'ymax')]

# Find the 'panel' viewport,
# then push to a new viewport, 
# one that exactly overlaps the 'panel' viewport,
# but with limits on the x and y scales that are the same
# as the limits for the original ggplot. 
seekViewport(grep("panel.[0-9]", grid.ls(g)$name, value = TRUE))
pushViewport(dataViewport(xscale = axis.limits[1, 1:2],
                          yscale = axis.limits[1, 3:4]))

# Define the clipping path
 pg <- polygonGrob(x = c(.6,   0.3, .3,   .8,   1.2), 
                   y = c(500, 1500, 2900, 2900, 1500), 
                   default.units="native")
cp <- clipPath(pg)

# Add the clipping path to the points grob.
# That is, only the points inside the polygon will be visible,
# but the background and grid lines will not be clipped. 
# Nor will the blue line be clipped.
# grid.ls(g)     # names of the grobs

grid.clipPath("points", cp, grep = TRUE)   

# To clip the blue line, uncomment the next line
 grid.clipPath("GRID.polyline", cp, grep = TRUE)       

# To show the clipping region. 
 showcp = editGrob(pg, gp = gpar(fill = rgb(0, 0, 0, 0.05), col = "transparent"))
 grid.draw(showcp)

# And to move the grid lines and remaining data points in front of the clipping region.
 panel = grid.get("panel", grep = TRUE)   # Get the panel, and remove the background grob
 panel = removeGrob(panel, "background", grep = TRUE)

 grid.remove("points", grep = TRUE)     # Remove points and grid lines from the rendered plot
 grid.remove("line", grep = TRUE, global = TRUE)

 grid.draw(panel)     # Draw the edited panel - on top of the clipping region 


# Turn off the graphics device
dev.off()

# Find text.svg in your working directory
