In other words, all objects representing the current scene are listed. </p> <p>Otherwise, <code>x</code> should be a grob or a viewport. </p> <p>The default behaviour of this function is to print information about the grobs in the current scene. It is also possible to add information about the viewports in the scene. By default, the listing is recursive, so all children of gTrees and all nested viewports are reported. </p> <p>The format of the information can be controlled via the <code>print</code> argument, which can be given a function to perform the formatting. The <code>nestedListing</code> function produces a line per grob or viewport, with indenting used to show nesting. The <code>pathListing</code> function produces a line per grob or viewport, with viewport paths and grob paths used to show nesting. The <code>grobPathListing</code> is a simple derivation that only shows lines for grobs. The user can define new functions. </p> <h3>Value</h3> <p>The result of this function is either a <code>"gridFlatListing"</code> object (if <code>flatten</code> is <code>TRUE</code>) or a <code>"gridListing"</code> object. </p> <p>The former is a simple (flat) list of vectors. This is convenient, for example, for working programmatically with the list of grob and viewport names, or for writing a new display function for the listing. </p> <p>The latter is a more complex hierarchical object (list of lists), but it does contain more detailed information so may be of use for more advanced customisations. </p> <h3>Author(s)</h3> <p> Paul Murrell </p> <h3>See Also</h3> <p><code><a href="grid.grob.html">grob</a></code> <code><a href="viewport.html">viewport</a></code> </p> <h3>Examples</h3> <pre> # A gTree, called "parent", with childrenvp vpTree (vp2 within vp1) # and child grob, called "child", with vp vpPath (down to vp2) sampleGTree <- gTree(name="parent", children=gList(grob(name="child", vp="vp1::vp2")), childrenvp=vpTree(parent=viewport(name="vp1"), children=vpList(viewport(name="vp2")))) grid.ls(sampleGTree) # Show viewports too grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE) # Only show viewports grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, grob=FALSE) # Alternate displays # nested listing, custom indent grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, print=nestedListing, gindent="--") # path listing grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, print=pathListing) # path listing, without grobs aligned grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, print=pathListing, gAlign=FALSE) # grob path listing grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, print=grobPathListing) # path listing, grobs only grid.ls(sampleGTree, print=pathListing) # path listing, viewports only grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, grob=FALSE, print=pathListing) # raw flat listing str(grid.ls(sampleGTree, view=TRUE, print=FALSE)) </pre> <hr /><div style="text-align: center;">[Package <em>grid</em> version 3.6.0 <a href="00Index.html">Index</a>]</div> </body></html>
