Border always cut off in .png or .svg

[schckngs]

Hey, thanks for this cool package. I've made a sticker but can't seem to figure out why the left side and bottom of the border are always cut off.
I've tried on a windows and mac, R version 4.0.2. (magick version 2.6.0, hexSticker 0.4.9)
Running one of the examples:

library(lattice)
counts <- c(18,17,15,20,10,20,25,13,12)
outcome <- gl(3,1,9)
treatment <- gl(3,3)
bwplot <- bwplot(counts ~ outcome | treatment, xlab=NULL, ylab=NULL, cex=.5,
                 scales=list(cex=.5), par.strip.text=list(cex=.5))

sticker(bwplot, package="hexSticker", p_size=20, s_x=1.05, s_y=.8, s_width=2, s_height=1.5,
        h_fill="#f9690e", h_color="#f39c12", filename="lattice.png")

The result is attached

I fixed this by adjusting the theme_sticker() function - the margin shift was causing this issue on my computer:
theme(plot.margin = margin(b = -.2, l= -.2, unit = "lines")
By removing b and l (or setting to zero) it works perfectly. I'm curious if anyone else has this happen.

@schckngs Can you post yours?

Maybe it is OS-depended.

Don't know if it is the same cause, but similar results are when I change h_size

Same bug for me

[emilioxavier]

I had the same problem.

Thank you, @schckngs, for the recommendation to look at the margin() in the theme_sticker() function. The updated function is below. Notice that the m variable's value is increased from 1.02 to 1.05.

theme_sticker <- function(size=1.2, ...) {
    center <- 1
    radius <- 1
    h <- radius
    w <- sqrt(3)/2 * radius
    m <- 1.05
    list(
      theme_transparent() +
        theme(plot.margin = margin(t=0, r=0, b=0, l=0, unit = "lines"),
              strip.text = element_blank(),
              line = element_blank(),
              text = element_blank(),
              title = element_blank(), ...),
      coord_fixed(),
      scale_y_continuous(expand = c(0, 0), limits = c(center-h*m , center+h*m )),
      scale_x_continuous(expand = c(0, 0), limits = c(center-w*m , center+w*m ))
    )
}

Submitted a pull request.

[DanChaltiel]

Thanks @emilioxavier, when I install from your branch, my hex is not cropped 🚀.
pak::pak("emilioxavier/hexSticker")
However, your PR #189 doesn't seem to contain this fix.
Did you forget a commit when you submitted it?

[emilioxavier]

You're very welcome @DanChaltiel!

It looks like @GuangchuangYu added it through issue #190. I likely messed up the pull request... 🤦

[jameshorine]

Fresh install and update of the package still produces the issue :)

[marchtaylor]

same issue for me. The fix from @emilioxavier worked! Does this need another pull request?

[HugoGit39]

Same here, tried all of the above solution..also installed the package directly from github. All didnt work
