xlim2

set axis limits (x or y) of a `ggplot` object (left hand side of `+`) based on the x (`xlim2`) or y (`ylim2`) limits of another `ggplot` object (right hand side of `+`). This is useful for using `cowplot` or `patchwork` to align `ggplot` objects.

xlim2(gg, limits = NULL)

ylim2(gg, limits = NULL)

Arguments

gg

ggplot object

limits

vector of limits. If NULL, determine from `gg`.

Value

ggplot2 object with new limits
