\details{
This page describes geom\_text, see \code{\link{layer}} and \code{\link{qplot}} for how to create a complete plot from individual components.

\section{Aesthetics}{
The following aesthetics can be used with geom\_text. Aesthetics are mapped to variables in the data with the aes function: \code{geom\_text(aes(x = var))}
\itemize{
\item \code{x}: x position (\strong{required})
\item \code{y}: y position (\strong{required})
\item \code{label}: text label (\strong{required})
\item \code{colour}: border colour
\item \code{size}: size
\item \code{angle}: angle
\item \code{hjust}: horizontal justification, between 0 and 1
\item \code{vjust}: vertical justification, between 0 and 1
\item \code{alpha}: transparency
}
}
\usage{geom_text(mapping = NULL, data = NULL, stat = "identity", position = "identity",
parse = FALSE, ...)}
\arguments{
\item{mapping}{mapping between variables and aesthetics generated by aes}
\item{data}{dataset used in this layer, if not specified uses plot dataset}
\item{stat}{statistic used by this layer}
\item{position}{position adjustment used by this layer}
\item{parse}{If TRUE, the labels will be parsed into expressions and displayed as described in ?plotmath}
\item{...}{other arguments}

# Set aesthetics to fixed value

p + geom_text(aes(size=wt)) + scale_size(to=c(3,6))
# You can display expressions by setting parse = TRUE. The
# details of the display are described in ?plotmath, but note that
# geom_text uses strings, not expressions.
p + geom_text(aes(label = paste(wt, "^(", cyl, ")", sep = "")),
parse = T)
# Use qplot instead
qplot(wt, mpg, data = mtcars, label = rownames(mtcars),
geom=c("point", "text"))
