scale-alpha-manual
Manual discrete alpha scale: supply a per-level array of opacities.
Use when each level should map to a chosen opacity in [0, 1] rather than the evenly-spaced range that the discrete inference would assign.
Usage
scale-alpha-manual(
values: (),
name: none,
limits: none,
labels: auto,
)Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
values |
() |

name |
none |
Legend title. Overrides any name set via labs when both are present. |
limits |
none |
Array of level names controlling order and inclusion, or none. |

Returns
Scale object consumed by plot.
Examples
Three groups assigned dim/medium/full opacity.
