[4.7.0] - 2024-03-15

Added

• coordPolar()

  The polar coordinate system is most commonly used for pie charts, but it can also be used for constructing Spider or Radar charts using the flat option.

  See: example notebook.

• In the theme() function:

  • panelInset parameter - primarily used for plots with polar coordinates.

    See: example notebook.

  • panelBorderOntop parameter - enables the drawing of panel border on top of the plot geoms.

  • panelGridOntop, panelGridOntopX, panelGridOntopY parameters - enable the drawing of grid lines on top of the plot geoms.

• geomCurve()

  See: example notebook.

• [UNIQUE] Visualizing graph-like data with geomSegment() and geomCurve().

  • Aesthetics sizeStart, sizeEnd, strokeStart and strokeEnd enable better alignment of segments/curves with nodes of the graph by considering the size of the nodes.

  • The spacer parameter allows for additional manual fine-tuning.

  See: example notebook.

• alphaStroke parameter in geomLabel() to enable the applying of alpha to color [#1029].

  See: example notebook.

Changed

Changed

• [BREAKING] Function margin() is deprecated and will be removed in future releases.
  Please replace all existing usages, i.e. theme(plotMargin=margin(..)) and elementText(margin=margin(..))
  with a list or with just a number:

  • a number or list of one number - the same margin it applied to all four sides;
  • a list of two numbers - the first margin applies to the top and bottom, the second - to the left and right;
  • a list of three numbers - the first margin applies to the top, the second - to the right and left, the third - to the bottom;
  • a list of four numbers - the margins are applied to the top, right, bottom and left in that order.

  See: example notebook.

• Geotools: migrate to v30 [#217].
  [BREAKING] GeoTools v30 and up is not backward compatible with v29 and below due to

Changed
