ggtibble (development version)

  • ggtibble() gains footnote and label arguments, glue specifications evaluated per row like caption, giving footnote and label columns (empty when not given, including from as_ggtibble()). A footnote is markdown rendered under its figure: inside the figure float after the caption in LaTeX (with the plain caption as the List of Figures entry), in one unbreakable block with the figure Div in Quarto Typst, as a smaller figure-footnote Div directly after the figure in HTML, and as a plain paragraph directly after the figure in Word and plain markdown. In LaTeX and Typst it cannot be separated from its figure by a page break; in Word it can, and it is in the body text size. A label is the figure’s own identifier (\label{} in LaTeX, the figure Div or image id in Quarto and pandoc output) and part of its image file name. Labels must be unique (ignoring case) and use only letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, and dots, and a figure id may appear only once in a document. Under Quarto, a label without the fig- prefix gives a warning, since @ references to it do not resolve. A ggtibble without footnotes or labels renders as before.
  • ggsave() on a ggtibble without filename names each file after its label.
  • Quarto renders are detected again with current Quarto versions, which no longer set the QUARTO_VERSION environment variable, so the ggtibble chunk option once more prefixes fig- to its labels and uses fig.subcap for multiple captions under Quarto.

ggtibble 1.0.4

CRAN release: 2026-06-21

  • gglist objects may now nest: a gglist element of a gglist is allowed, so a gglist can represent a list of lists of plots. The + broadcast, print(), and the new plot() method all recurse through the nesting.
  • gglist element names are now preserved through the + broadcast (they were previously dropped), in addition to construction and subsetting. This makes name-indexed collections (g[["my plot"]], names(g)) reliable.
  • New plot() methods for gglist and ggtibble, plus a plot.NULL() method so that NULL elements of a gglist render as a no-op instead of erroring. The + broadcast is likewise NULL-safe (a NULL element stays NULL).
  • New exported S3 generic as_ggtibble() with a gglist method that converts a named (and possibly nested) gglist into a ggtibble, using the element names as captions. Nesting is flattened and the outer name is prepended to each inner name (e.g. "All Data dv_pred_ipred_linear").

ggtibble 1.0.3

CRAN release: 2026-05-14

  • knit_print.gglist() automatically inserts \FloatBarrier between figures when more than 10 plots are rendered to LaTeX, avoiding the LaTeX “Output loop—100 consecutive dead cycles” error. The threshold is configurable via the new float_barrier_after argument (default 10; use Inf to disable). Requires \usepackage{placeins} in the document preamble. (#27)
  • New exported S3 generic as_gglist() (methods for gg, list, gglist, labels, and NULL) that promotes an input to a gglist. When the input uses ggforce::facet_wrap_paginate() or ggforce::facet_grid_paginate(), as_gglist() expands the paginated plot into one element per rendered page so it can be passed to print(), knit_print(), or ggsave() and every page will render. Page expansion is opt-in — render methods are unchanged and do not call as_gglist() implicitly. ggforce is added to Suggests (issue 2).
  • New ggtibble knitr chunk option that simplifies rendering a ggtibble in R Markdown and Quarto reports. Setting ggtibble = "my_obj" (or ggtibble = my_obj) on a chunk auto-sets the chunk label, fig.cap, and injects knit_print(my_obj) for empty chunk bodies. Under Quarto, the label is prefixed with fig- and multi-caption objects use fig.subcap so @fig-... cross-references work (issue 17).
  • Works with the ggbreak package

ggtibble 1.0.2

CRAN release: 2025-06-11

  • ggtibble() now warns if outercols are not used in either the caption or the labs argument (#13).
  • ggtibble and gglist objects now work with the ggplot2 %+% operator (#16)
  • A new ggsave() generic function will now enable simpler saving of ggtibble and gglist objects (unique filenames are required to save).
  • aes() and data.frame() objects can be added to ggtibble and gglist objects (#23).
  • ggsave() can accept a character vector of all filenames to use when saving (#25).
  • Update testing to work with ggplot2 version 4.0.0

ggtibble 1.0.1

CRAN release: 2024-06-19
