Overview

About

Maintained by Lindsay LintelmanFirst published 2026-06-161 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Add callout arrows, highlight data points, and show percent change between rows on 'ggplot2' charts in one line of code. annotate_callout() points at a data row with an arrow and label. annotate_change() draws a color-coded arrow between two rows and labels the delta as percent change, absolute difference, or percentage points. Designed for business charts, quarterly reports, and dashboards. Built on top of the 'ggpp' package.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-ggmemo

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-ggmemo
