Added

• Facets Layout:

  • New strip_spacing, strip_spacing_x, and strip_spacing_y parameters in theme() to control spacing between the facet strip (title bar) and the plot panel.

  • New panel_spacing, panel_spacing_x, and panel_spacing_y parameters in theme() to control spacing between plot panels in faceted plots, [#1380].

    See: example notebook.

• ggsave():

  • w, h and unit parameters support [#281],
    [#1368].
    See: example notebook.

Changed

• facetWrap() now drops factor levels that do not appear in the data (i.e., empty panels) by default [#1322].
  
  To keep unused factor levels, use the new drop parameter, i.e., drop=false.

  See: example notebook.

• Facets Layout:

  • Removed extra spacing between facet strips and plot panels in facetWrap() and facetGrid().

• ggsave(): removed Batik dependency (now uses lets-plot's built-in rasterizer).

Fixed

• Coordinate limits do not work on reversed scales [#1365]
• Misaligned axis labels and ticks in polar coordinates.
• Display order of fill categories not being set correctly in stacked plots? [#1367]
• Unclear error when using geomRect with discrete scales [#1287]
