ggplot2::theme_set()
   get_help() docs


Description

The theme_set() function is part of the {ggplot2} package, which is part of the {tidyverse}.

We use the theme_set() function to specify a default theme for {ggplot2} plots.

To use this function, you need to either first load the {ggplot2} library, or always use the function with ggplot2::theme_set() notation.

# Load the library
library(ggplot2)
# Or, load the full tidyverse:
library(tidyverse)

# Or, use :: notation
ggplot2::theme_set()

Examples


# Set the default theme to the complete theme theme_bw(), for example
theme_set(theme_bw())


# Set the default theme to the complete theme theme_bw(), with some additional customization
# of increasing the axis text size to be 1.5-times the default theme_bw() axis text size
theme_set(theme_bw() + 
            theme(axis.text = element_text(size = rel(1.5))))
