\title{Create a new ggplot-based "statebin" chart for USA states (manually colored)}
\usage{
statebins_manual(state_data, state_col = "state", color_col = "color",
text_color = "black", font_size = 3, state_border_col = "white",
labels = NULL, legend_title = "Legend", legend_position = "top",
plot_title = "", title_position = "bottom")
}
\arguments{
\item{state_data}{data frame of states and values to plot}
\item{state_col}{column name in \code{state_data} that has the states. no duplicates and can be names (e.g. "\code{Maine}") or abbreviatons (e.g. "\code{ME}")}
\item{color_col}{column name in \code{state_data} that holds the colors to be used}
\item{text_color}{default "\code{black}"}
\item{font_size}{font size (default = \code{3})}
\item{state_border_col}{default "\code{white}" - this creates the "spaces" between boxes}
\item{labels}{labels for the legend (should be the same number as distinct colors in \code{color_col}); \code{NULL} == no labels/legend}
\item{legend_title}{title for the legend}
\item{legend_position}{"\code{none}", "\code{top}", "\code{left}", "\code{right}" or "\code{bottom}" (defaults to "\code{top}")}
\item{plot_title}{title for the plot}
\item{title_position}{where to put the title ("\code{bottom}" or "\code{top}" or "" for none); if "\code{bottom}", you get back a grob vs a ggplot object}
}
\value{
ggplot2 object or grob
}
\description{
\code{statebins()} creates "statebin" charts in the style of \url{http://bit.ly/statebins}
}
\details{
This version uses manual colors (i.e. pass in a column that defines the color per-state)
The function minimally expects the caller to pass in a data frame that:
\itemize{
\item has one column of all state abbreviationis (all caps, including \code{DC} or a column of state names (standard capitalization) named \code{state}
\item has another column of colors named \code{color}
}
Doing so will create a "statebin" chart with the colors specified as a \link{ggplot2} object.
You can use a different column for the state names and colors by changing \code{state_col}
and \code{color_col} accordingly.
To add a title, change \code{plot_title} to anything but an empty atomic string vector (i.e. \code{""})
and set \code{title_position} to "\code{top}" or "\code{bottom}". Choosing "\code{bottom}"
will cause \code{statebins} to use \link{arrangeGrob} to position the title via \code{sub} and
return a frame grob instead of a ggplot2 object.
