position_circle_repel {ggautomap} | R Documentation |
Pack overlapping points into a circle
Description
This position looks for any points with identical x
and y
positions and packs them in a circle around the original point. The _sf
version applies the position adjustment in projected coordinates.
Usage
position_circle_repel(scale = 1/4)
position_circle_repel_sf(scale = 10)
Arguments
scale |
Scale of packing around the central point.
This is in data units, so for the |
Details
Note that extreme choices of scale
may cause errors.
The scale
parameter can instead be specified as an aesthetic for geoms
that support it (geom_centroids()
). This allows different locations to have
different scales, which is especially useful when combined with map insets.
Value
A ggplot position object.
Examples

points <- data.frame(
x = c(rep(1, 10), 1:3),
y = c(rep(2, 10), 3:5),

geom_point(position = position_circle_repel(0.05), size = 3, alpha = 0.5)
