x | A numeric vector or unit object specifying x-locations of the pattern boundary. |
---|---|
y | A numeric vector or unit object specifying y-locations of the pattern boundary. |
id | A numeric vector used to separate locations in x, y into multiple boundaries.
All locations within the same |
... | Currently ignored |
colour | Stroke colour |
fill | Fill colour |
angle | Rotation angle in degrees |
spacing | Spacing between repetitions of pattern ('snpc' units between 0 and 1). |
xoffset | Shift pattern along x axis ('snpc' units between 0 and 1). |
yoffset | Shift pattern along y axis ('snpc' units between 0 and 1). |
type | Name of polygon tiling to draw. See Details. |
alpha | Alpha (between 0 and 1) or |
linetype | Stroke linetype |
size | Stroke linewidth |
default.units | A string indicating the default units to use if |
name | A character identifier. |
gp | An object of class |
draw | A logical value indicating whether graphics output should be produced. |
vp | A Grid viewport object (or NULL). |
An object of class character
of length 36.
A grid grob object invisibly. If draw
is TRUE
then also draws to the graphic device as a side effect.
grid.pattern_polygon_tiling()
supports 1, 2, or 3 fill
colors with the first colors (weakly)
covering a larger area. Size of the pattern is controlled by spacing
.
