Add vertical lines below a plot with no extra y-axis
I am trying to produce a normal distribution with vertical lines going down from the x-axis below the graph.
So far I have been able to draw the distribution curve and add lines that go above the x-axis (figure 1) and combine two plots where the lines are below (figure 2).
The problem with figure 1 is that they cover the graph instead of appearing below, and in figure 2 nothing is aligned. Can someone help me with this? I don't mind what method/how hacky the solution is as long as it looks ok.
Figure 1
Figure 2
Code:
library(gridExtra)
library(ggplot2)
# plot 1
p1 <- ggplot(data.frame(x = c(-3, 3)), aes(x)) +
stat_function(fun = dnorm,
fill = "mediumpurple",
alpha = 0.4,
xlim = c(-1.96,1.96),
geom = "area") +
stat_function(fun = dnorm) +
xlab(expression(mu)) +
ylab("") +
theme_classic() +
theme(axis.title.x = element_text(vjust=22, size = 25),
axis.text.x = element_text(size = 13),
axis.text.y = element_text(size = 13))
plot(p1)
# plot 2
p2 <- ggplot() +
geom_vline(xintercept =-1.96, linetype=2) +
geom_vline(xintercept = 1.96, linetype=2) +
geom_vline(xintercept = 0, size = 1.1) +
xlim(-3, 3) +
xlab("") +
theme_classic() +
theme(axis.line.x = element_blank(),
axis.ticks.x = element_blank(),
axis.text.x = element_blank())
grid.arrange(p1, p2, nrow=2)

You can align the two graphs using this (as per Left align two graph edges (ggplot)):
gA <- ggplotGrob(p1)
gB <- ggplotGrob(p2)
maxWidth = grid::unit.pmax(gA$widths[2:5], gB$widths[2:5])
gA$widths[2:5] <- as.list(maxWidth)
gB$widths[2:5] <- as.list(maxWidth)
grid.arrange(gA, gB, ncol=1)
Then you just need to reduce the space between the two plots.

Thanks so much! Also to remove the excess space I figured out if you change the border properties on the original graph you can take away the space :) eg:plot.margin=unit(c(1,1,-0.5,1), "cm")in thetheme()section :)
