Layers that allows subsetting
Subsetting
is not supported in layers defined in ggplot2
, while it is quite useful in phylogenetic annotation since it allows us to annotate at specific node(s).
In ggtree
, we provides modified version of layers defined in ggplot2
to support subsetting
, including:
- geom_segment2
- geom_point2
- geom_text2
- geom_label2
Multiple graphs on one page
To support viewing multiple plots, ggtree provides multiplot
function that similar to gridExtra::grid.arrange
with extra feature of labeling the plots.
subplots in ggplot object
ggtree
implemented a function, subview
, that can add subplots on a ggplot2 object.
set.seed(2016-01-04)
tr <- rtree(30)
tr <- groupClade(tr, node=45)
p <- ggtree(tr, aes(color=group)) + geom_tippoint()
p1 <- p + geom_hilight(node=45)
p2 <- viewClade(p, node=45) + geom_tiplab()
subview(p2, p1+theme_transparent(), x=2.3, y=28.5)
This is the backend of the inset function.
This subview
function works with any ggplot
objects and it had successful applied to plot pie graphs on map.
library(ggtree)
dd <- data.frame(x=LETTERS[1:3], y=1:3)
pie <- ggplot(dd, aes(x=1, y, fill=x)) + geom_bar(stat="identity", width=1) + coord_polar(theta="y") + theme_inset()
x <- sample(2:9)
y <- sample(2:9)
width <- sample(seq(0.05, 0.15, length.out=length(x)))
height <- width
p <- ggplot(data=data.frame(x=c(0, 10), y=c(0, 10)), aes(x, y))+geom_blank()
for (i in seq_along(x)) {
p <- subview(p, pie, x[i], y[i], width[i], height[i])
print(p)
}
