Variable panel.spacing in facet_nested #92

Closed ColinConwell closed 1 year ago

ColinConwell commented 1 year ago

Thank you @teunbrand for this phenomenal package.

I am wondering if it's possible to add variable panel.spacing for different levels of facet_nested.

For example, imagine I have a singly nested facet (facet_nested( ~ var1 + var2).

Ideally, we could specify one size of panel.spacing for var1 and another size for var2.

I realize that though simple in conception, this might be monstrously hard in execution.

Any hack for solving this would be much appreciated!

Thank you for the kind words! This is currently not explicitly implemented and I don't think it will mingle well at the internal levels with how nested strips are implemented. Currently, the strips only touch the strips. However, if you don't mind doing a little bit of manual work, you may provide a vector of units to the panel.spacing theme element:

library(ggh4x)
#> Loading required package: ggplot2

ggplot(mpg, aes(displ, hwy)) +
  geom_point() +
  facet_nested(~ year + drv) +
  theme(
    panel.spacing.x = unit(c(2,2,4,2,2), "mm")
  )

This does the trick perfectly well! Thanks so much for the rapid response.
