BdE scales for ggplot2

Source: R/scales.R
scales_bde.Rd

Scales to be used with the ggplot2 package. Discrete palettes are named as scale_*_bde_d while continuous palettes are named scale_*_bde_c.

Usage

scale_color_bde_d(
  palette = c("bde_vivid_pal", "bde_rose_pal", "bde_qual_pal"),
  alpha = NULL,
  rev = FALSE,
  ...
)

scale_fill_bde_d(
  palette = c("bde_vivid_pal", "bde_rose_pal", "bde_qual_pal"),
  alpha = NULL,
  rev = FALSE,
  ...
)

scale_color_bde_c(
  palette = c("bde_rose_pal", "bde_vivid_pal", "bde_qual_pal"),
  alpha = NULL,
  rev = FALSE,
  guide = "colorbar",
  ...
)

scale_fill_bde_c(
  palette = c("bde_rose_pal", "bde_vivid_pal", "bde_qual_pal"),
  alpha = NULL,
  rev = FALSE,
  guide = "colorbar",
  ...
)

Arguments

palette

Name of the BdE palette to apply. See bde_tidy_palettes() for details.

alpha

An alpha-transparency level in the range [0,1] (0 means transparent and 1 means opaque). A missing, i.e., alpha = NULL, does not add opacity codes ("FF") to the individual color hex codes. See ggplot2::alpha().

rev

Logical indicating whether the ordering of the colors should be reversed.

...

Further arguments of ggplot2::discrete_scale() or ggplot2::continuous_scale().

guide

A function used to create a guide or its name. See guides() for more information.

Value

A ggplot2 color scale.
