Hi,
Instead of ggsave(), use save_plot() from the "cowplot" package:

library(ggplot2)
library(cowplot)
x <- 1:10
y <- x^2
df <- data.frame(x, y)
p <- ggplot(df, aes(x, y)) + geom_point()
save_plot("/tmp/plot.png", p, base_aspect_ratio = 1, base_width = 5, base_height = NULL)

Dear useRs,

I produce several independent ggplot2 plots and I would like to save them to a fixed width (for publications), but the height (and therefore aspect ratio) is different from plot to plot.

How can I save my plots with ggsave() supplying only a fixed width but without knowing the height nor the aspect ratio? If I specify the width only, the plots are truncated in width because the aspect ratio is not correct.

Thank you for the tip!
Ivan
