Add colour and fill scales to ggplot with DfE theme

scale_colour_dfe(palette = "main", discrete = TRUE, reverse = FALSE, ...)

scale_fill_dfe(palette = "main", discrete = TRUE, reverse = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

palette: The colour palette to use
discrete: Is the scale discrete (defaults TRUE)
reverse: Reverse the order of the scale (defaults FALSE)
...: arguments passed onto discrete_scale() or scale_fill_gradientn()

Value

These are the palettes in their current form

main - Blue red turquoise (discrete, 3 colours)
warm - Red to purple (continuous)
cool - Blue to lime (continuous)
full - all colours in the brand (discrete, 7 colours)
likert - red to blue, grey midpoint (diverging)
likert2 - green to purple, white midpoint (diverging)
likert3 - red to blue, white midpoint (diverging)
heat - white to red (continuous)
heat2 - white to pink (continuous)
cold - white to blue (continuous)
cold2 - white to turqouise (continuous)
