Is there a way to use the standard ggplot theme with lets-plot? #221

Hi, Is there a way to achieve the standard ggplot theme with lets-plot plots? Perhaps something similar to sns.set()? I didn't find anything in the docs but maybe I missed it.

No, customization of the plot elements beyond removing axis lines/ticks or labels is not yet implemented. What are you missing most from the standard ggplot theme? Background or grid lines or both? ) image

Nothing specific really - I was just giving lets-plot a try to see how well it works and the default theme wouldn't fit in with some of my other plots so I was wondering is there is an easy way to switch over to default ggplot theme 😅

Personally, the background, the default ggplot colour scheme for the various geoms and the font would be my top 3.

Thank you for the feedback!

I'd also love to have an option to bring back ticklines (readability) and background (better overall contrast of plot wrt to background).

Theming goes clearly beyond those 2 aspects and includes many other attributes that a user may want to customize. E.g. see https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/#section-themes and for a complete listing https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/theme.html

Themes were added in

holgerbrandl commented 2 years ago

That's wonderful news. Thanks a lot.

Is there a way to set a default theme (e.g. in a jupyter notebook)?

alshan commented 2 years ago

Unfortunately no, at the moment there is no way to set a default theme. I've created a ticket: #495
