A 'ggplot2' geom to add text labels to subgenes

geom_subgene_label() can be used to add a text label to subgenes drawn with geom_subgene_arrow().

geom_subgene_label(
  mapping = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  stat = "identity",
  position = "identity",
  na.rm = FALSE,
  show.legend = FALSE,
  inherit.aes = TRUE,
  padding.x = grid::unit(1, "mm"),
  padding.y = grid::unit(0.1, "lines"),
  align = "centre",
  min.size = 4,
  grow = F,
  reflow = F,
  height = grid::unit(3, "mm"),
  ...
)

Arguments

mapping, data, stat, position, na.rm, show.legend, inherit.aes, ...

Standard geom arguments as for ggplot2::geom_text().

padding.x, padding.y

grid::unit() object, giving horizontal or vertical padding around the text. Defaults to 1 mm and 0.1 lines respectively.

align

Where inside the subgene to place the text label. Default is 'centre'; other options are 'left' and 'right'.

min.size

Minimum font size, in points. If provided, text that would need to be shrunk below this size to fit inside the subgene will not be drawn. Defaults to 4 pt.

grow

If TRUE, text will be grown as well as shrunk to fill the subgene.

reflow

If TRUE, text will be reflowed (wrapped) to better fit the subgene.

height

grid::unit() object giving the maximum height of the text. Defaults to 3 mm, which is the default height of gene arrows (and therefore of subgenes) drawn with geom_gene_arrow().

Details

geom_subgene_label() uses the 'ggfittext' package to fit text to genes. All text drawing options available in ggfittext::geom_fit_text() (growing, reflowing, etc.) are also available here. For full details on how these options work, see the documentation for ggfittext::geom_fit_text().

Standard 'ggplot2' aesthetics for text are supported (see Aesthetics.)

Aesthetics

• xsubmin,xsubmax (start and end of the subgene; required)

• y (molecule; required)

• colour

• size

• alpha

• family

• fontface

• angle
