R Documentation

A Plot Theme for ggplot2 by xaringanthemer

Description

Creates ggplot2 themes to match the xaringanthemer theme used in the xaringan slides that seamlessly matches the "normal" slide colors and styles. See vignette("ggplot2-themes") for more information and examples.

Usage

theme_xaringan(
  text_color = NULL,
  background_color = NULL,
  accent_color = NULL,
  accent_secondary_color = NULL,
  css_file = NULL,
  set_ggplot_defaults = TRUE,
  text_font = NULL,
  text_font_use_google = NULL,
  text_font_size = NULL,
  title_font = NULL,
  title_font_use_google = NULL,
  title_font_size = NULL,
  use_showtext = NULL
)

Arguments

`text_color`	Color for text and foreground, inherits from `text_color`
`background_color`	Color for background, inherits from `background_color`
`accent_color`	Color for titles and accents, inherits from `header_color`
`accent_secondary_color`	Color for secondary accents, inherits from `text_bold_color`
`css_file`	Path to a xaringanthemer CSS file, from which the theme variables and values will be inferred. In general, if you use the xaringathemer defaults, you will not need to set this. This feature lets you create a ggplot2 theme for your xaringan slides, even if you have only saved your theme CSS file and you aren't creating your CSS theme with xaringanthemer in your slides' source file.
`set_ggplot_defaults`	Should defaults be set for ggplot2 geoms? Defaults to TRUE. To restore ggplot's defaults, or the previously set geom defaults, see `theme_xaringan_restore_defaults()`.
`text_font`	Font to use for text elements, passed to `sysfonts::font_add_google()`, if available and `text_font_use_google` is `TRUE`. Inherits from `text_font_family`. If manually specified, can be a `google_font()`.
`text_font_use_google`	Is `text_font` available on Google Fonts?
`text_font_size`	Base text font size, inherits from `text_font_size`, or defaults to 11.
`title_font`	Font to use for title elements, passed to `sysfonts::font_add_google()`, if available and `title_font_use_google` is `TRUE`. Inherits from `title_font_family`. If manually specified, can be a `google_font()`.
`title_font_use_google`	Is `title_font` available on Google Fonts?
`title_font_size`	Base text font size, inherits from `title_font_size`, or defaults to 14.
`use_showtext`	If `TRUE` the showtext package will be used to register Google fonts. Set to `FALSE` to disable this feature entirely, which may result in errors during plotting if the fonts used are not available locally. The default is `TRUE` when the showtext package is installed.

Value

A ggplot2 theme

Examples

# Requires ggplot2
has_ggplot2 <- requireNamespace("ggplot2", quietly = TRUE)

if (has_ggplot2) {
  # Because this is an example, we'll save the CSS to a temp file
  path_to_css_file <- tempfile(fileext = ".css")

  # Create the xaringan theme: dark blue background with teal green accents
  style_duo(
    primary_color = "#002b36",
    secondary_color = "#31b09e",
    # Using basic fonts for this example, but the plot theme will
    # automatically use your theme font if you use Google fonts
    text_font_family = "sans",
    header_font_family = "serif",
    outfile = path_to_css_file
  )

  library(ggplot2)
  ggplot(mpg) +
    aes(cty, hwy) +
    geom_point() +
    ggtitle("Fuel Efficiency of Various Cars") +
    theme_xaringan()
