Details

This theme inverts the colors of ggplot2::theme_gray(), with a white panel and a light gray area around it. This keeps a white background for the color scales, like ggplot2::theme_bw(). But by using a gray background, the plot is closer to the typographical color of the document, which is the motivation for using a gray panel in ggplot2::theme_gray(). This is similar to the style of plots in Stata and Tableau.
