strange figure widths in complex layout
aghaynes opened this issue · 4 comments

I have been asked to layout some figures in a slightly novel fashion - one large figure at the top and two rows of smaller figures, similar to the figure below.
The problem is that the second column has a different width than the others. Adding the widths argument to plot_layout has no effect. Is there a way to get the desired layout where the 10 lower panels all have the same width? I'm not sure whether this is a bug or a feature... 😕
The code to create the figure follows
design <- "###AAAA###
###AAAA###
BBCCDDEEFF
JJKKLLMMNN"
f <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = cyl, y = mpg))
f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f +
plot_layout(design = design)

I am running into what I think is the same issue. Edit: This appears to be the same as #289
library(ggplot2)
library(patchwork)
data(mtcars)
p1 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
geom_smooth()
p2 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
geom_smooth(color = "red")
p3 <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
geom_smooth(color = "purple")
layout <- "
#AA#
BBCC
"
p.all = p1 + p2 + p3 +
plot_layout(design = layout) + plot_annotation(tag_levels = "A")
p.all
#> `geom_smooth()` using method = 'loess' and formula = 'y ~ x'
#> `geom_smooth()` using method = 'loess' and formula = 'y ~ x'
#> `geom_smooth()` using method = 'loess' and formula = 'y ~ x'

Also hitting this, with:
library(patchwork)
layout <- "
AABBCCC
DDDEEFF
"
test <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, cyl)) + geom_point()
test + test +test+test+test+test + plot_layout(design = layout)
thomasp85 commented
the issue is that the y-axis of the top plot influences the width of plots spanning it's location. The easiest way is to remove alignment from the top plot by putting it inside wrap_elements()
library(ggplot2)
library(patchwork)
design <- "###AAAA###
###AAAA###
BBCCDDEEFF
JJKKLLMMNN"
f <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = cyl, y = mpg))
wrap_elements(full = f) + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f + f +
plot_layout(design = design)

so easy... thanks @thomasp85!
