callArg {playwith} | R Documentation |
Part of the playwith Application Programming Interface.
callArg(playState, arg, eval = TRUE, data = NULL) callArg(playState, arg) <- value mainCall(playState) mainCall(playState) <- value updateMainCall(playState)
playState |
a playState object representing the plot, window and device. |
arg |
the argument name or number in the main plot call.
This can also be a language object
(e.g. quote(scales$log) ).
Argument numbers start from 1 (so 0 refers to the main function name).
This is evaluated in the calling environment, so can
refer to local variables (e.g. data[[myname]] ).
|
eval |
whether to evaluate the argument before returning it. Otherwise, just return the argument as it appears in the call. |
data |
a list or environment in which to evaluate the argument. Typically this will be the "data" argument to lattice or qplot functions. |
value |
the value to assign. |
These functions get and set argument values in the playState plot call.
As convenience functions for setting arguments in playState$call
,
the callArg
function helps by:
playState$env
).
exact=TRUE
(see [[
).
returns the value of the specified argument, possibly
evaluated in a local environment (playState$env
).
