Create a Magnified Inset of Part of a "Ggplot" Object

A single-purpose ggplot2 inset tool, refining the same three arguments.

ggplot2data-visualizationinset-plotsr-packagesmall-tooling
Current state
ggmagnify draws magnified insets of a region of a ggplot, with projection lines connecting the inset to its source area. The visible releases are all small refinements to how that inset looks — corner radius, fill between projection lines — plus one fix for inset themes being overridden. There are only three entries, so the picture is necessarily partial.
Where it's heading
Work concentrates on the visual finish of the inset rather than on new capability, which is what a package with one job should look like. Two feature releases a week apart in early 2024 suggest a short burst of attention rather than sustained development, and the feed goes quiet after mid-2024.
Prediction
Too few entries to call a direction with confidence; continued small styling arguments would be consistent with what is visible.

Recent moves

    Fixes inset theme override on supplied plots

    Fixes inset_theme() overriding themes on explicitly passed-in inset plot objects. A narrow bug in the interaction between the package's defaults and user-supplied plots.

    Adds fill between projection lines

    Adds proj.fill to fill the area between the projection lines. A styling option in the same vein as the corner radius added the week before.

    Adds corner radius for target and inset

    Adds a corners argument setting corner radius on both target and inset. The first of the two styling releases that make up nearly all visible development.
