grid.pattern_rose() draws a rose curve pattern onto the graphic device.

Usage

grid.pattern_rose(
  x = c(0, 0, 1, 1),
  y = c(1, 0, 0, 1),
  id = 1L,
  ...,
  colour = gp$col %||% "grey20",
  fill = gp$fill %||% "grey80",
  angle = 30,
  density = 0.2,
  spacing = 0.05,
  xoffset = 0,
  yoffset = 0,
  units = "snpc",
  frequency = 0.1,
  grid = "square",
  type = NULL,
  subtype = NULL,
  rot = 0,
  alpha = gp$alpha %||% NA_real_,
  linetype = gp$lty %||% 1,
  linewidth = size %||% gp$lwd %||% 1,
  size = NULL,
  use_R4.1_masks = getOption("ggpattern_use_R4.1_masks",
    getOption("ggpattern_use_R4.1_features")),
  png_device = NULL,
  res = getOption("ggpattern_res", 72),

Arguments

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 id belong to the same boundary.

...

Currently ignored.

colour

Stroke colour(s).

fill

Fill colour(s) or grid::pattern() / gradient object(s).

angle

Rotation angle in degrees.

density

Approx. fraction of area the pattern fills.

spacing

Spacing between repetitions of pattern (in units units).

xoffset

Shift pattern along x axis (in units units).

yoffset

Shift pattern along y axis (in units units).

units

grid::unit() units for spacing, xoffset, and yoffset parameters.

frequency

The “angular frequency” parameter of the rose pattern.

grid

Adjusts placement and density of certain graphical elements. "square" (default) is a square grid. "hex" is a hexagonal grid suitable for hexagonal and triangular tiling. "hex_circle" is a hexagonal grid suitable for circle packing. "elongated_triangle" is a grid used for the "elongated triangle" tiling.

type

Adjusts the repeating of certain aesthetics such as color. Can use any type in names_hex, names_square, or names_weave. See for pattern_hex(), pattern_square(), and pattern_weave() for more information about supported type arguments.

subtype

See for pattern_hex(), pattern_square(), and pattern_weave() for more information about supported subtype arguments.

rot

Angle to rotate rose (degrees, counter-clockwise).

alpha

Alpha (between 0 and 1) or NA (default, preserves colors' alpha value).

linetype

Stroke linetype.

linewidth

Stroke linewidth.

size

For backwards compatibility can be used to set linewidth.

use_R4.1_masks

If TRUE use the grid mask feature introduced in R v4.1.0. If FALSE do a rasterGrob approximation. If NULL try to guess an appropriate choice. Note not all graphic devices support the grid mask feature.

png_device

“png” graphics device to save intermediate raster data with if use_R4.1_masks is FALSE. If NULL and suggested package ragg is available and versions are high enough we directly capture masked raster via ragg::agg_capture(). Otherwise we will use png_device (default ragg::agg_png() if available else grDevices::png()) and png::readPNG() to manually compute a masked raster.

res

Resolution of desired rasterGrob in pixels per inch if use_R4.1_masks is FALSE.

default.units

A string indicating the default units to use if x or y are only given as numeric vectors.

name

A character identifier.

gp

An object of class "gpar", typically the output from a call to the function gpar. This is basically a list of graphical parameter settings.

draw

A logical value indicating whether graphics output should be produced.

vp

A Grid viewport object (or NULL).

Value

A grid grob object invisibly. If draw is TRUE then also draws to the graphic device as a side effect.
