Thankyouwords

[espinielli]

Added thank you data set and updated the documentation/vignette accordingly. While running the vignette example I see that some words (even from love dataset) do not render and are just plotted as a box. I do not know what this is due to (UTF8?)...

I have added the language name in the lang_stats because this could be useful to filter the subset of languages you want to target maybe according to your audience...

Here is a snapshot of rendering thankyou_words_small as in the first word cloud example in vignette

ggplot(thankyou_words_small, aes(label = word)) +
     geom_text_wordcloud() +
     theme_minimal()

So the problem is with (at least) Chinese characters

thankyou_words %>% filter(iso_639_3 == "zho") -> w
ggplot(w, aes(label = word)) +
     geom_text_wordcloud() +
     theme_minimal()

Do I need to set some options??

[espinielli]

I have found this article on RStudio Comunity but not yet a solution...

It looks like a platform issue...if I try the default example in the vignette I get same issue:

library(ggwordcloud)
#> Loading required package: ggplot2
data("love_words_small")
set.seed(42)
ggplot(love_words_small, aes(label = word, size = speakers)) +
  geom_text_wordcloud() +
  scale_size_area(max_size = 24) +
  theme_minimal()

Platform specific? (I am on OSX)

This is indeed an encoding nightmare! With linux and windows, everything seems to work when executed from the rstudio console. I have an issue if I use the pdf() device... Even funnier, if I build the pkgdown site with build_site() I have this issue but if I rebuild the reference with build_reference() no.

Character encoding is a quite complex thing!!!

I am puzzled too. On Mac/RStudio if I run View(thankyou_words) I can see all Chinese, Arab,... characters That I thought was a good enough proof that I did save the words correctly. But as from the link I cited, life is much more complicated when graphics are involved. Maybe generating SVG?
