Basic unikn theme (for ggplot2)

theme_unikn provides a basic unikn theme to use in ggplot2 commands.

Usage

theme_unikn(
  col_title = pal_seeblau[[4]],
  col_line = grey(0.05, 1),
  base_size = 11,
  base_family = "sans",
  base_line_size = base_size/22,
  base_rect_size = base_size/22,
  axis_ticks_mm = 2
)

Arguments

col_title

Color of the plot title (optional). Default: col_title = pal_seeblau[[4]]. Consider using col_title = "black" when data does not use Seeblau colors.

col_line

Color of line elements used for axis lines and ticks, strip and panel border. Default: col_line = grey(.05, 1) (i.e., dark grey).

base_size

Base font size (optional, numeric). Default: base_size = 11.

base_family

Base font family (optional, character). Default: base_family = "sans". Options include "mono", "sans" (default), and "serif".

base_line_size

Base line size (optional, numeric). Default: base_line_size = base_size/22.

base_rect_size

Base rectangle size (optional, numeric). Default: base_rect_size = base_size/22.

axis_ticks_mm

Length of axis ticks (in mm). Default: axis_ticks_mm = 2.

Details

The theme is lightweight and no-nonsense, but somewhat opinionated (e.g., in using mostly grey scales to allow emphasizing data points with color accents).
