## Introduction to the 'circle', 'pch', 'regular_polygon', and 'rose' patterns

* The 'circle' pattern draws circles
* The 'pch' pattern draws "plotting character" symbols as in `graphics::points()`
* The 'regular\_polygon' pattern draws convex/star regular polygons
* The 'rose' pattern draws [rose curves](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose\_(mathematics))
* For more info on these patterns see their `{gridpattern}` documentation:

  * [`help("grid.pattern_circle", package = "gridpattern")`](http://trevorldavis.com/R/gridpattern/dev/reference/grid.pattern_circle.html)
  * [`help("grid.pattern_pch", package = "gridpattern")`](http://trevorldavis.com/R/gridpattern/dev/reference/grid.pattern_pch.html)
  * [`help("grid.pattern_regular_polygon", package = "gridpattern")`](http://trevorldavis.com/R/gridpattern/dev/reference/grid.pattern_regular_polygon.html)
  * [`help("grid.pattern_rose", package = "gridpattern")`](http://trevorldavis.com/R/gridpattern/dev/reference/grid.pattern_rose.html)

There are also a number of parameters for extra control of legend sizing and
aspect ratio adjustments. See the 'Pattern Parameters - Common' for more 
information.

## Data

Standard data for all the example plots

```{r}
df <- data.frame(trt = c("a", "b", "c"), outcome = c(2.3, 1.9, 3.2))
df
```

## Vanilla ggplot2

```{r plain, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example of a plain ggplot2"}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col(aes(fill=trt),colour='black') +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Plain ggplot2")
```

## Use the `{ggpattern}` geom

* Use `ggpattern::geom_col_pattern()` instead of `ggplot2::geom_col()`.
* Set `pattern = 'circle'`
* Default legends in `ggplot2` are usually too small to show off an example of
  the pattern, so it will usually be necessary to increase the key size.

```{r ggpattern, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example using ggpattern to make patterned geoms"}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(aes(fill=trt),colour='black', pattern = 'circle') +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "ggpattern") +
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm'))
```

## The Density Aesthetic ('pch' example)

The aesthetic `pattern_density` roughly corresponds to the fraction of the filled
area which should be covered by the pattern.

In the following plot the density of striping is increased to 50% of the fill area.

```{r density, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example of increasing density of striping"}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(
    aes(fill=trt, pattern_shape=trt),
    colour          = 'black', 
    pattern         = 'pch',
    pattern_density = 0.5
  ) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Fixed density of 0.5 (50% of the fill area)") + 
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm'))
```

## The Density Aesthetic as a Mapped Aesthetic

```{r density2, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example from using the density aesthetic as a mapped aesthetic"}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(
    aes(fill = trt, pattern_density = trt),
    colour          = 'black', 
    pattern         = 'circle'
  ) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Aesthetic Mapping of 'trt' to Density") + 
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm'))
```

## The Density Aesthetic as a Mapped Aesthetic with Manual Scale

`scale_pattern_density_manual()` can be used to manually control how the variable 
is mapped to the density.

```{r density3, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example from using the density aesthetic as a mapped aesthetic with manual scale."}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(
    aes(fill = trt, pattern_density = trt),
    colour          = 'black', 
    pattern         = 'regular_polygon',
    pattern_shape   = 'convex6',
    pattern_fill    = 'white',
    pattern_colour  = NA,
    pattern_grid    = 'hex'
  ) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Aesthetic Mapping of 'trt' to Density") + 
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm')) + 
  scale_pattern_density_manual(values = c(a = 0.7, b=0.8, c=0.9))
```

## The Spacing Aesthetic as a Mapped Aesthetic

```{r spacing, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example from using the spacing aesthetic as a mapped aesthetic."}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(
    aes(fill = trt, pattern_spacing = trt, pattern_shape = trt),
    pattern_density = 0.7,
    colour          = 'black', 
    pattern         = 'regular_polygon',
    pattern_scale   = 0.2
  ) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Aesthetic Mapping of 'trt' to Spacing") + 
  scale_pattern_shape_manual(values = c(a = "circle", b = "convex3", c = "star5")) +
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm'))
```

## The Fill Aesthetic as a Mapped Aesthetic ('rose' example)

```{r fill, fig.cap="", fig.alt="Example from using the fill aesthetic as a mapped aesthetic."}
ggplot(df, aes(trt, outcome)) +
  geom_col_pattern(
    aes(fill = trt, pattern_fill = trt),
    colour          = 'black', 
    pattern         = 'rose',
    pattern_frequency = 5/2,
    pattern_density = 0.7,
    pattern_spacing = 0.15
  ) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "Aesthetic Mapping of 'trt' to Pattern Fill") + 
  scale_pattern_fill_viridis_d() + 
  theme(legend.key.size = unit(1.5, 'cm'))
```
