emptyMainLeftAxisLeftStripBottomLegend {HH}

Remove main title, left axis tick labels, left strip, bottom legend from plot and keep the vertical spacing allocated to those items.

Description

Remove main title, left axis tick labels, left strip, bottom legend from plot and keep the vertical spacing allocated to those items. This function is used to prepare a trellis object to be placed next to another trellis object. The current object will have much of its annotation removed with the intent of sharing annotation with the other object. This is motivated by the ProfChal example in plot.likert.

Usage

emptyMainLeftAxisLeftStripBottomLegend(x)

Arguments

x

A "trellis" object.

Details

We manipulate the items inside the trellis object.

Value

A "trellis" object with the stated items replaced by non-printing values. The vertical spacing of the original object is retained.

References

The manipulations are similar to those in the c.trellis and related functions in the latticeExtra package.
