Theme with Apple Numbers chart defaults

Theme similar to the default look of charts in Apple Numbers.

Usage

theme_numbers(base_size = 12, base_family = "sans")

Arguments

base_size

base font size, given in pts.

base_family

base font family

Value

A ggplot2 theme object (class theme).

Details

The values used here are those in the chart-style-default style of the theme stylesheet that ships inside Numbers: no chart background fill, gridlines in the value direction only, a border along the bottom of the chart but not the other three sides, and no tick marks.

Palettes

The theme sets numbers_pal() for discrete color and fill scales as the default palettes, so a plot draws in the theme's colors without a matching scale. A scale_*() added to the plot still takes precedence.

Examples

library(ggplot2)

p <- ggplot(mtcars) +
  geom_point(aes(x = wt, y = mpg, colour = factor(gear))) +
  facet_wrap(~am)
p + theme_numbers() + scale_color_numbers()
