Overview

About

Maintained by Zygmunt ZawadzkiCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗

Create complicated drawing areas for multiple elements by combining much simpler layouts. It is an extended version of layout function from the 'graphics' package, but it also works with 'grid' graphics. It also supports arranging elements inside 'PowerPoint' slides created using the 'officer' package.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/customLayout/customLayout_0.3.2.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "customLayout_0.3.2.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.3.2) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("zzawadz/customLayout")

Development version from zzawadz/customLayout. Installs pak first if it is not already available.
