Hex logo

Do we want one? Here's an initial attempt.

[seabbs]

Yes I think we do. Could maybe make the same sort of thing but horizontal?

[sbfnk]

e.g.?

[athowes]

e.g.?

I think this one is good. If possible it could be nice to have some elements of stylistic similiarity between all Epiforecasts / epinowcast packages.

Is this an svg? I could play around with some options.

[jamesmbaazam]

I feel like the white space below the plot is a bit awkward so the plot should probably sit on the bottom line.

SVG versions at:

Alternative would be to create it from a script as e.g. in https://github.com/epinowcast/epidist/blob/main/inst/make_hexsticker.R which would probably help with the stylistic continuity that @athowes has suggested.

[seabbs]

I think I prefer the results we get from hexsticker but I don't feel strongly at all

[seabbs]

See https://github.com/epinowcast/epidist/issues/363 for a very critical whitespace issue this might run into and a solution from @athowes.

Btw this works best if you increase the dpi up to 1200 then use the solution (if lower it trims it in an ugly way).

[jamesmbaazam]

What's the progress on this?

[athowes]

I am in favour of the "make a script similar to https://github.com/epinowcast/epidist/blob/main/inst/make_hexsticker.R" solution.

[sbfnk]

I agree

To return to content I like the idea of showing the reconstructed cases by infection date as that is the USP of the package vs alternatives and something that is important to communicate (even though say Rt might be tempting)
