\title{Modify geom/stat aesthetic defaults for future plots}
\usage{
update_geom_defaults(geom, new)
update_stat_defaults(stat, new)
reset_geom_defaults()
reset_stat_defaults()
}
\arguments{
\item{new}{One of the following:
\itemize{
\item A named list of aesthetics to serve as new defaults.
\item \code{NULL} to reset the defaults.
}}
\item{stat, geom}{Name of geom/stat to modify (like \code{"point"} or
\code{"bin"}), or a Geom/Stat object (like \code{GeomPoint} or
\code{StatBin}).}
}
\description{
Functions to update or reset the default aesthetics of geoms and stats.
}
\note{
Please note that geom defaults can be set \emph{en masse} via the \code{theme(geom)}
argument. The guidelines for when to use which function are as follows:
\itemize{
\item If you want to change defaults for all geoms in all plots, use
\code{theme_update(geom = element_geom(...))}.
\item If you want to change defaults for all geoms in a single plot, use
\code{+ theme(geom = element_geom(...))}.
\item If you want to change defaults for one geom in all plots, use
\code{update_geom_defaults()}.
\item If you want to change settings for one geom in a single plot, use fixed
aesthetic parameters in a layer, like so: \code{geom_point(colour = "red")}.
}
}
\examples{
# updating a geom's default aesthetic settings
# example: change geom_point()'s default color
GeomPoint$default_aes
update_geom_defaults("point", aes(color = "red"))
GeomPoint$default_aes
ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) + geom_point()
# reset single default
update_geom_defaults("point", NULL)
# reset all defaults
reset_geom_defaults()
# updating a stat's default aesthetic settings
# example: change stat_bin()'s default y-axis to the density scale
StatBin$default_aes
update_stat_defaults("bin", aes(y = after_stat(density)))
StatBin$default_aes
ggplot(data.frame(x = rnorm(1e3)), aes(x)) +
geom_histogram() +
geom_function(fun = dnorm, color = "red")
# reset single default
update_stat_defaults("bin", NULL)
# reset all defaults
reset_stat_defaults()
}
