roundrect - Custom Rounded Rectangle Drawing in R

roundrect is an R package that allows you to easily draw custom rounded rectangles with individually adjustable corner radii. Unlike the grid package's grid.roundrect() that applies the same radius to all corners, this package enables you to set different radii for each corner of the rectangle, making it more flexible for various graphical needs.

Features

• Draw a rounded rectangle with customizable corner radii.
• Easily adjust rectangle position, size, border color, and fill color.
• Control opacity, border width, and border style.
• Straightforward parameter names for easier understanding and use.

Installation

You can install the package from GitHub using the devtools package:

# Install devtools if not already installed
install.packages("devtools")

# Install roundrect from GitHub
devtools::install_github("shahriar-siham/roundrect")

Example

library(roundrect)

round_rect(
  fill = "#e43a59", 
  border = NA, 
  scale = c(0.5, 0.5), 
  corners = c(0.25, 0.05, 0.25, 0.05)
)

Figure: Output of the example code.

Parameters:

• position: A vector specifying the x and y positions of the rectangle (default: c(0.5, 0.5)).
• scale: A vector specifying the width and height of the rectangle (default: c(1, 1)).
• corners: A vector specifying the radii of the corners (clockwise) (default: c(0.15, 0.15, 0.15, 0.15)).
• opacity: Opacity of the rectangle (default: 1).
• fill: The fill color of the rectangle (default: NA).
• border: The border color of the rectangle (default: "black").
• border_width: The width of the border (default: 1).
• border_type: The type of the border (e.g., "solid", "dashed") (default: "solid").
• border_cap: The style of the border cap (e.g., "round", "butt") (default: "round").
• output_as_grob: Whether to return the grob object instead of drawing it (default: FALSE).
• name: The name of the grob object (optional).
