By “low-level,” we mean that grid graphics functions are typically used to modify very specific elements of a plot, rather than being functions to use for a one-line plotting call. Grid graphics is a low-level system for plotting within R and is as a separate system from base R graphics. You can even include mathematical annotation on ggplot objects using ggplot2 functions (see for some examples) and change coordinate systems (for example, a pie chart can be created by using polar coordinates on a barchart geom). For example, as described in previous sections, you can use ggplot2 functions to change the theme of a plot (and you can also change specific elements of the theme for a plot), to customize the colors used within the plot, and to create faceted “small multiple” graphs. 4.7.4 Example: Normal Confidence Intervalsįunctions in the ggplot2 package allow extensive customization of many plotting elements.4.7.2 Example: An Automatic Transparency Geom.4.5.6 Find out more about grid graphics.4.3.5 Where to find more on mapping with R.4.3.4 More advanced mapping – Spatial objects.3.10.1 Web Services for Continuous Integration.
