ggplot2, change title size

I would like to have my main title and axis title have the same font size as the annotated text in my plot.

i used theme_get() and found that text size is 12, so I did that in my theme statement - this did not work. I also tried to send the relative size to 1, and this did not work

I was hoping someone could please help me.

Code is below

library(ggplot2)
library(gridExtra)  #to set up plot grid
library(stringr)  #string formatting functions
library(plyr)  #rbind.fill function
library(reshape2)  #transformation of tables

dat<-data.frame(
est=c(2.75,2.95,2.86,2.99),
ucl=c(2.92,3.23,3.38,4.91),
lcl=c(2.24,1.67,2.44,1.82),
ord=c(1,2,1,2)
)
dat$varname<-c('Estimate','Predictive','Estimate','Predictive')
dat$grp<-c('Cobalt','Cobalt','Chromium','Chromium')

for (i in unique(dat$grp)) {
  dat <- rbind.fill(dat, data.frame(grp = i, ord=0,
                                    stringsAsFactors = F))
}

dat$grp_combo <- factor(paste(dat$grp, dat$ord, sep = ", "))
dat$grpN <- as.numeric(dat$grp_combo)



rng <- c(0,6)
scale.rng <-1


xstart=-(max(dat$grpN)+2)
xend=4


ThemeMain<-theme(legend.position = "none", plot.margin = unit(c(0,0,0, 0), "npc"), 
                 panel.margin = unit(c(0,0, 0, 0), "npc"), 
                 title =element_text(size=12, face='bold'),
                 axis.text.y = element_blank(), 
                 axis.text.x = element_text(color='black'),
                 axis.ticks.y = element_blank(),
                 axis.title.x = element_text(size=12,color='black',face='bold')
                 )

                       title =element_text(size=12, face='bold'),

                       axis.text.y = element_blank(), 
                       axis.ticks.x = element_line(color = "white"),
                       axis.ticks.y=element_blank(),
                       axis.title.x = element_text(size=12,color='white',face='bold'),
                       panel.grid = element_blank(),panel.grid.major = element_blank(),panel.background = element_blank()
                       )

Solution 1:

+ theme(plot.title = element_text(size=22))

Here is the full set of things you can change in element_text:

element_text(family = NULL, face = NULL, colour = NULL, size = NULL,
  hjust = NULL, vjust = NULL, angle = NULL, lineheight = NULL,
  color = NULL)
