Mini lollipop chart chunk wrapper

This function is used to insert lollipop charts into flextable with functions:

• compose() and as_paragraph(),

• append_chunks(),

• prepend_chunks().

It is now deprecated and will be soon defunct because we think it produces ugly results. Use gg_chunk() to replace it.

lollipop(
  value,
  min = NULL,
  max = NULL,
  rangecol = "#CCCCCC",
  bg = "transparent",
  width = 1,
  height = 0.2,
  unit = "in",
  raster_width = 30,
  positivecol = "#00CC00",
  negativecol = "#CC0000",
  neutralcol = "#CCCCCC",
  neutralrange = c(0, 0),
  rectanglesize = 2
)

Arguments

value

min

min bar size. Default min of value

max

rangecol

  ),
  part = "body"
