coord_fixed {ggplot2} | R Documentation |
A fixed scale coordinate system forces a specified ratio
between the physical representation of data units on the
axes. The ratio represents the number of units on the
y-axis equivalent to one unit on the x-axis. The default,
ratio = 1
, ensures that one unit on the x-axis is
the same length as one unit on the y-axis. Ratios higher
than one make units on the y axis longer than units on
the x-axis, and vice versa. This is similar to
eqscplot
, but it works for all types
of graphics.

# ensures that the ranges of axes are equal to the specified ratio by # adjusting the plot aspect ratio qplot(mpg, wt, data = mtcars) + coord_fixed(ratio = 1) qplot(mpg, wt, data = mtcars) + coord_fixed(ratio = 5) qplot(mpg, wt, data = mtcars) + coord_fixed(ratio = 1/5) # Resize the plot to see that the specified aspect ratio is maintained
