ggsave()
doesn't seem to work with the grid package (see below). How do I save this combination of plot p1
and plot p2
. The following code only save the last plot p2
that ggplot() sees.
library(tidyverse)
p1 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(fl)) + geom_bar()
p2 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(cty, hwy)) + geom_col()
grid.newpage()
grid.draw(rbind(ggplotGrob(p1), ggplotGrob(p2), size = "last"))
ggsave("mpg.png")
Consider using gridExtra
. As explained in this vignette , gridExtra
, building off of gtable
(a higher-level layout scheme), provides more facility in arranging multiple grobs on a page, while grid
package provides low-level functions to create graphical objects (grobs).
library(ggplot2)
library(gridExtra)
p1 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(fl)) + geom_bar()
p2 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(cty, hwy)) + geom_col()
p <- grid.arrange(p1, p2)
ggsave(plot=p, filename="myPlot.png")
You have to assign the new combination first then use ggsave() to print it.
# here I name it to_print
to_print <- rbind(ggplotGrob(p1), ggplotGrob(p2), size = "last")
ggsave(filename = "mpg.png", plot = to_print)
hope this helps!
I think you can do something like this.
#plotFile
g1=file.path(HomeDir,plotFile)
f1=grid.arrange(p1,p2, ncol=2, top=textGrob("Multiple Plots", gp=gpar(fontsize=12, font = 2))) #arranges plots within grid
g <- arrangeGrob(f1) #generates g
#save
ggsave(g1, g,width = 29.7, height = 21, units = 'cm') #saves g
