I am trying to label 4 lines grouped by the value of variable cc
. To label the lines I use ggrepel
but I get all the 4 labels instead of 2 for each graph. How to correct this error?
The location of the labels is in this example at the last date but I want something more flexible: I want to locate each of the 4 labels in specific points that I chose (e.g. b
at date 1, a
at date 2, etc.). How to do that?
library(tidyverse)
library(ggrepel)
library(cowplot)
set.seed(1234)
df <- tibble(date = c(rep(1,4), rep(2,4), rep(3,4), rep(4,4)),
country = rep(c('a','b','c','d'),4),
value = runif(16),
cc = rep(c(1,1,2,2),4))
df$cc <- as.factor(df$cc)
# make list of plots
ggList <- lapply(split(df, df$cc), function(i) {
ggplot(i, aes(x = date, y = value, color = country)) +
geom_line(lwd = 1.1) +
geom_text_repel(data = subset(df, date == 4),
aes(label = country)) +
theme(legend.position = "none")
})
# plot as grid in 1 columns
cowplot::plot_grid(plotlist = ggList, ncol = 1,
align = 'v', labels = levels(df$cc))
