I have a ggplot code and I wanted to change the size of labels for x-axis and y-axis.
the code:
df.m <- melt(df, names(df)[2:3], names(df)[1])
df.m$Results <- factor(df.m$Results)
df.m$HMn25_30.h <- strptime(as.character(df.m$HMn25_30.h), format = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
p <- ggplot(df.m, aes(x = HMn25_30.h, y = value, group = variable, color = variable))
p <- p + scale_shape_manual(values=c(20,22))
p <- p + geom_point(aes(shape = Results), cex=4, color= "blue3")
p <- p + geom_line(size=.8)
p <- p + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, hjust = 1, size=13,color="darkred"))
p <- p + scale_color_manual(values=c("Red"))
p <- p + ylim(-1,8)
p <- p + xlab('Date and Time')
p <- p + ylab('Temperature')
p <- p + ggtitle("Temporal Outliers of Node 25 ") + theme(plot.title = element_text(lineheight=3, face="bold", color="black", size=29))
p
In other words "Temperature" and "Date and Time" font and size should be changed.
Go to the menu in RStudio and click on Tools and then Global Options. Select the Appearance tab on the left. Again buried in the middle of things is the font size. Change this to 14 or 16 to start with and see what it looks like.
To increase the X-axis labels font size using ggplot2, we can use axis. text. x argument of theme function where we can define the text size for axis element. This might be required when we want viewers to critically examine the X-axis labels and especially in situations when we change the scale for X-axis.
To set labels for X and Y axes in R plot, call plot() function and along with the data to be plot, pass required string values for the X and Y axes labels to the “xlab” and “ylab” parameters respectively. By default X-axis label is set to “x”, and Y-axis label is set to “y”.
Changing axis labels To alter the labels on the axis, add the code +labs(y= "y axis name", x = "x axis name") to your line of basic ggplot code. Note: You can also use +labs(title = "Title") which is equivalent to ggtitle .
You can apply different options of theme
:
p <- ggplot(df.m, aes(x = HMn25_30.h, y = value, group = variable, color = variable))
p <- p + scale_shape_manual(values=c(20,22))
p <- p + geom_point(aes(shape = Results), cex=4, color= "blue3")
p <- p + geom_line(size=.8)
p <- p + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, hjust = 1, size=13,color="darkred"))
p <- p + scale_color_manual(values=c("Red"))
p <- p + ylim(-1,8)
p <- p + theme_bw()
p <- p + xlab('Date and Time')
p <- p + ylab('Temprature')
p <- p + ggtitle("Temporal Outliers of Node 25 ") + theme(plot.title = element_text(lineheight=3, face="bold", color="black", size=29))
p <- p + labs(x = "Date-Time ", y = "Temprature ")
p <- p + theme(axis.title.y = element_text(size = rel(1.8), angle = 90))
p <- p + theme(axis.title.x = element_text(size = rel(1.8), angle = 00))
