How to increase the size of a plot resulting from grid.arrange
I am working with R and Shiny to show different tables at once by using the packages ggplot2 and gridExtra.
My problem is that, when I try to use gridExtra to merge 12 plots, they turn out to be tiny.
The code I have for the merging is the following:
grid.arrange(p1, p12, p2, p22, p3, p32, p4, p42, p5, p52, p6, p62,
ncol=2)
And this is how all plots are coded:
p62 = ggplot(data = dataframe1, aes(x = Week, y = DB, con = Type)) +
xlab("Week") +
ggtitle("Country") +
theme(plot.title = element_text(size = 10, face = "italic")) +
ylab("DB") +
geom_line(size = 1) +
geom_line(aes(colour = Type), size = 1) +
guides(col = guide_legend(title = "Period")) +
scale_color_manual(values = c('#999999', '#E69F00', "purple"))
When I test it using only 4 plots, the size of the individual plots is perfect:
But when I write all 12, they become tiny:
My question is then: Is there a way to change the size of the individual plots?
r ggplot2 shiny gridextra

in general: increase the height and width of your output device i.e.pdf(..., height= , width= )but for shiny maybe try along these lines: stackoverflow.com/questions/50914398/…

@user20650 I knew there had to be an easy "height=" option I was missing somewhere... Thanks a lot for the help!!

You can also remove all legends and keep only 1 to save space

There are multiple parts to this answer:
In Shiny, to increase the size (height) or a plot output, use the height argument in the output element in your UI:
plotOutput(outputId, height = "400px")
Next, as @Tung suggested, you don't have to plot all redundant legends. See grid_arrange_shared_legend in the package lemon, and perhaps g_legend.
