# ggalign 0.1.0

## Breaking changes

* Now, all `*_free()` layouts have been removed, all layout has been splitted into two type: align 
  discrete or continous vairables.

## New features

* new helper function `memo_order()` to reorder the oncoplot samples.

* new `geom_subrect()` and `geom_subtile()` to subdivide rectangles with shared borders into a grid.

* new `cross_link` function to reset the layout ordering index or layout panel group, and
  add plot to connect selected observations.

* new `cross_mark` function to reset the layout ordering index or layout panel group, and
  add plot to annotate observations.

* new `pair_links()` function to create pairs of observation groups.

* new `mark_draw()`, `mark_line()`, `mark_tetragon()` to define the links to
  connect the marked observations.

* new `link_draw()`, `link_line()`, `link_tetragon()` to define the links to
  connect a pair of observations

* new `ggmark()` to add a plot to annotate selected observations.

* new `element_vec()` functions to apply function to the vectorized fields of
  the theme element object.

* new `no_expansion()` function to remove scale expansion.

* new layout `circle_layout()` to arrange plot in a circular.

* new `raster_magick()` function to post-processing the image raster with `magick` package was added.

* new `fortify_matrix.GISTIC()` method for `GISTIC` object from `maftools` package (#24).

* `+` operator now will respect `with_quad()`.

* new `ggalign_attr_set()` and `ggalign_attr_get()` for basic operations of attached attribute.

* new `geom_draw()` function to draw ggplot2 layer with customized draw function.

## Bug fixes

* fix breaks and labels not work well in discrete scale (#30, #32)

* fix wrong results of `fortify_matrix.MAF()` method

## Improvements

* Now, `with_quad()` wraps the object into a list with the class `with_quad`. This approach offers greater flexibility in defining the actions associated with `with_quad`, allowing for more customizable behavior (#26, @Yunuuuu).

* Now, we always set as.table = FALSE when using ggplot2 `facet_*()` functions,
  we don't need to reorder the `panel` when drawing.

* `free_gg`, `align` and the new `cross_link` objects have been collapsed to one class `ggalign_plot`

## Features

`ggalign` pacakge provides two layout to arrange ggplot objects:

  - `heatmap_layout()`/`ggheatmap()`: Arrange ggplot into a Heatmap layout. See
  `vignette("heatmap-layout")` for details.

  - `stack_layout()`/`ggstack()`: Arrange ggplot vertically or horizontally. See
  `vignette("stack-layout")` for details.

To further customize these layouts, we offer following functions:

  - `align_group()`: Group layout axis into panel with a group variable.
  - `align_kmeans()`: Group layout axis into panel by kmeans
  - `align_reorder()`: Reorders layout observations based on weights or summary
  statistics. 
  - `align_dendro()`: Reorder or Group layout based on hierarchical clustering

For more detailed instructions on customizing layouts, see the vignette:
`vignette("layout-customize")`. 

Additionally, plots can be added in the layout with following functions: 

  - `align_gg()`/`ggalign()`: Create ggplot object with a customized data.
  - `align_panel()`/`ggpanel()`: Create ggplot object with the layout panel
    data.

For more information on adding plots, refer to the vignette:
`vignette("layout-plot")`.
