In the example below I would like to have only the label for Ghana in the tm_text("name")
layer showing.
Any idea how to do this? Thank you for your help.
library(tmap)
data("World")
tmap_mode("view")
tm_shape(World) +
tm_polygons("HPI", id="HPI")+tm_text("name")
This should give you what you require:
The key line is: tm_shape(filter(World, name == "Ghana"))
which uses dplyr::filter()
to subset the name
variable for the required name(s).
With Ghana outlined in red to make it more obvious which country the label refers to.
library(tmap)
library(dplyr)
data("World")
tm_shape(World) +
tm_polygons("HPI", id="HPI")+
tm_shape(filter(World, name == "Ghana")) +
tm_borders(col = "red")+
tm_text("name", xmod = -1, ymod = -1)
