How fill part of a circle using ggplot2

ggplot2, plot, r

Solution

Is this what you're looking for?

# Define the circle; add a point at the center if the 'pie slice' if the shape is to be filled
circleFun <- function(center=c(0,0), diameter=1, npoints=100, start=0, end=2, filled=TRUE){
  tt <- seq(start*pi, end*pi, length.out=npoints)
  df <- data.frame(
    x = center[1] + diameter / 2 * cos(tt),
    y = center[2] + diameter / 2 * sin(tt)
  )
  if(filled==TRUE) { #add a point at the center so the whole 'pie slice' is filled
    df <- rbind(df, center)
  }
  return(df)
}

#Define separate data frames for the filled and unfilled circle
quarterCircle <- circleFun(c(1,-1), diameter = 2.3, start=0., end=0.5, filled=TRUE)
fullCircle <- circleFun(c(1, -1), 2.3, start=0, end=2, filled=FALSE)

ggplot() + 
  geom_polygon(data=quarterCircle, aes(x,y), color="black", fill="black") + 
  geom_path(data=fullCircle, aes(x, y), color="black") +
  coord_equal()

Problem

``` circleFun <- function(center = c(0,0),diameter = 1, npoints = 100){ r = diameter / 2 tt <- seq(0,2*pi,length.out = npoints) xx <- center[1] + r * cos(tt) yy <- center[2] + r * sin(tt) return(data.frame(x = xx, y = yy)) } dat <- circleFun(c(1,-1),2.3,npoints = 100) ggplot(dat,aes(x,y)) + geom_path(color="black") + ggtitle("circle") ``` I am plotting with ggplot2. I want to fill the circle with blue only in first quadrant. What should I do? Thank you !
