plot_tt function

Insert images and inline plots into tinytable objects

The plot_tt() function allows for the insertion of images and inline plots into tinytable objects. This function can handle both local and web-based images.

plot_tt(
  x,
  i = NULL,
  j = NULL,
  fun = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  color = "black",
  xlim = NULL,
  height = 1,
  asp = 1/3,
  images = NULL,
  assets = "tinytable_assets",
  ...
)

Arguments

• x: A tinytable object.

• i: Integer vector, the row indices where images are to be inserted. If NULL, images will be inserted in all rows.

• j: Integer vector, the column indices where images are to be inserted. If NULL, images will be inserted in all columns.

• fun: String or function to generate inline plots.

  • String: "histogram", "density", "bar", "line"
  • Functions that return ggplot2 objects.
  • Functions that return another function which generates a base R plot, ex: function(x) {function() hist(x)}
  • See the tutorial on the tinytable website for more information.

• data: a list of data frames or vectors to be used by the plotting functions in fun.

• color: string Name of color to use for inline plots (passed to the col argument base graphics plots in R).

• xlim: Numeric vector of length 2.

• height: Numeric, the height of the images in the table in em units.

• asp: Numeric, aspect ratio of the plots (height / width).

• images: Character vector, the paths to the images to be inserted. Paths are relative to the main table file or Quarto (Rmarkdown) document.

• assets: Path to the directory where generated assets are stored. This path is relative to the location where a table is saved.

• ...: Extra arguments are passed to the function in fun. Important: Custom plotting functions must always have ... as an argument.

Returns

A modified tinytable object with images or plots inserted.
